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!

Hi I am new to this site but I had to laugh reading the names but I think I got two to add

last year we had a baby born and his first name was

Riot (for you guessed it the band quiet riot)

what was worse is that his older brother is

Rage (for "rage against the machine!)

these poor kids!

Hello everyone. I don't know if this one has been posted already. I know someone named Ginger Snap-yeah like the cookies.

My cousin's name is Love Alotta. Okay, so my family is weird. If my hippie dad would have had his way my name would be Moon and my sister's name would be Star. Thank God my Mom won that argument.

I met Melody Tune yesterday. She jokes that her parents names are Car and Loony.

Meet a gal a long time ago named Fonda Lynn. She was married to Bill Peters. It was hard to introduce her (should I drop the middle name? Nope, it's just as bad without it.) to anyone and keep a straight face.

Dear God, this is really really sad, but my name is Aura. In high school when my full name was Aura Fox, it turned into "oral sex." My sisters' names are Omega, Terra and Nova. Then there's my brother Dar. I have met one other person with my name. EVER. But, the weirdest baby name I have ever heard of was Crystal Shanda Lear. At least I wasn't that bad off....:smokin:

Isn't Lear's daughter (as in, the Learjet) named Crystal Shanda? Which would be proof that money really CAN'T buy you everything, because that is just lacking in COMMON SENSE.

Aura, I think your name is pretty!

No lie - my mother, who taught first and second grade, once had a kid in her class named Chiquita Rosita. I forgot about her until right now! Little blonde-haired kid who wouldn't say BOO to a goose, but her name just made you think uh, CARMEN MIRANDA....

I wish I could say the parents prounounced it that way. It was pronounced Jade like the jewel.
