What's the weirdest baby name?

Specialties Ob/Gyn Nursing Q/A

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!

Met a little girl named Ruby and her Mom told me her full first name was Rubella. After the initial shock wore off, I found out the daughter was named after her grandmothers (Ruby and Ella). I would say that is an awful name.

Well they could have called her "Measles"! :lol2:

I agree with you. How tragic. But at least the poor baby won't have to live in an unhealthy environment.

When I was pregnant with my oldest daughter, in my 1st trimester my hubby and I were going through boy names and girl names. If we had a girl he wanted her name to be Amber Sabrina. If it was a boy, Adam Sebastian. Neither set of names are bad, except that our last name starts with an "S". Don't worry folks! I am a good mommy. Neither of my daughters have THOSE initials!!!

I was leaning more towards Megan for our 1st born but that got taken off the list as well! Thank God too b/c once she hit Pre-K she would have been a "Megan" in the same classroom as Kaigan and Reghan! Yes, those are the correct spellings of those little girls. Nope, not related!
