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!

:rotfl:

LOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!! You know what? There are 2 boys named that (I swear) at a grade school near a clinic I used to work at. My sister's at the time boyfriend was student teaching there, and he was giving us the low down on the names. Those were 2. Sad isn't it?

My uncle, who is a pharmacist, also has kept a notebook of strange baby names. Among his are... Placenta AND Uterus, and he's had those MORE THAN ONCE!

My girlfriend's husband wanted to name their third child Elec Tricity (as in the power source). Thank goodness she convinced him to shorten is just to Trisitea (which is still pretty strange if you ask me!)

Your girlfriend has a husband?! :uhoh21:

First time to talk on here. We had some funny names in our nursery too.

How about Pretty Sugar Sweet, Rocky Road, and Placenta?

Is this some kind of urban myth or something? I actually had a patient once who told me the story of someone that her son/daughter knew who named their children those names. I thought, "WHAT?" Now I'm wondering if this is true or what! She said the parents pronounced the names Li-mon-ja-low and O-ron-ja-low. Whatever!

I first heard it in nursing school 10 years ago, along with Shithead. :rolleyes:

seriously, i don't even know what to make out of this one. although it is not an unsual name, it seems to should be kept only when refering to the lord christ. :uhoh21:
