What's the weirdest baby name?

Hi, I was wondering about some of those weird names that you've probably encountered in L&D and PP. I remember when I had my maternity rotation a couple of weeks ago, one of the nurses said she remembers a patient that named her child Placenta. I couldn't believe it that some child has to live his life named after disgusting afterbirth!

I know a Denial...

My husband went to school with a boy named Peter, which is not a bad name. The problem was that his last name was Eder, pronounced "eater." I guess the parents didn't put the names together. :eek:

On my unit now... Mayonna Princess, Starlisa, twins Dayanna and Destyni, and a Messiah

I have a friend who's first, last and muddle are a common names but put together it is terribly embarrassing.....

Stank.

Parents did not have a name picked before the baby was born. When they changed his first diaper, they said it "stank".

Come on, people!

Some of these are Urban Legends that have been around a lloooong time! Check them out yourself on Snopes and Urban Legends websites

Before anyone posts this one (maybe I should have read the whole thread before I say this) let me tell you that the newest "name story"

"I heard from a friend of mine who works regeistering new patients that a lady got really mad when no one could pronounce her daughter's name. It's spelled Ja-ia. People were saying JAAYa JayIA, none of it right. The mom said "Her name be JA DASH I A...that dash don't be silent"."

This one is both a legend AND racist so it's a double whammy.

I'm failing to see the racism.

I did medical records at a hospital while in NS and had a patient named Hollywood Wisher, first and last name.....

One of our techs who's been there for years swears that we had a baby boy named "Sh*thead" (pronounced "Sha-TEED"), but actually spelled just like the cuss word. I'm hoping that when the birth certificate was filed they vetoed that one...

I would have to lady parts....pronounced as va-gina
