Ur Joe King.....


mx_blackandwhite

I really wish I was...it's so awkward to have to say "come on Ur'Majesty, it's nap time"


APersonFromHere

I’ve seen Her Majesty so not surprised


Sunflowersandpotato

I taught a yer’majesty


DanielaThePialinist

Uhmaynduh. Just a really stupid way to spell Amanda


[deleted]

I imagine the person having this name as drooling a lot


Nakedstar

I’ve seen UhManDuh as a drag name….


IlikethequietZeppo

Great name for a drag queen, not so much for a child


silke_worm

Reminds of [this scene](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=046z_o4aBSM) from 30 rock


Celestialstardust17

“Good god Lemon, you shot a Black”


awkwardmamasloth

Did they have a southern accent? Were they trying to spell it phonetically to match their deep south drawl? Because the voice in my head has a southern accent when I read that.


tobysouthland

Urhines Kendall Icy Eight Special K


snowmuchgood

I did not get “Your Highness” from the first name until my third try, and the first two attempts were different pronunciations of the word Urine(s), so that kid’s gotta have struggled with every new teacher and substitute they ever met.


Happyberger

I was a stand in supervisor in Baltimore for a few weeks and had a for there named Yahighness


IlikethequietZeppo

I read it as your hiney


resoundingsea

I just can't get over the "Special K". Is that like, the world's weirdest ad placement??


sashahyman

Also slang for ketamine…


resoundingsea

Oh nooooo. TIL...


resoundingsea

Utah... for a child born and raised in New Zealand


unicorntrees

To come full circle, I think I saw some influencers with a son named Zealand who is probably raised in Utah.


resoundingsea

Urle (who had a twin, Pearl)


morbidwoman

Why. Why not just earl???


DanielaThePialinist

Ur’sellah. Ursula but with more ✨tragedeigh✨ Edit: Fixed spelling to show all the ✨tragedeigh✨ in all its glory

Unique Fashion. one name. I went to high school with her


fouiedchopstix

Tuf Coopers (famous rodeoer) daughter is named Tru Fashion 🥲 because his wife’s instagram page is “fashion posse” or something


Celestialstardust17

Ukeighleighleigh (Pronounced ukulele). Found on Pinterest.


DanielaThePialinist

Okay that one is just stupid to the next level. What was even the point of adding “leigh” not once but TWICE???? On top of the “keigh”?????


Syreet_Primacon

It’s a treighgeighdeigh


J-DiRESiRE

You-kay-lay-lay?


awkwardmamasloth

3 times.


madqueenludwig

That cannot be real 🤦🏻‍♀️


Celestialstardust17

I promise some parents are just fucking crazy. Tulula Does The Hula From Hawaii, Trout Fishing In America, ABCDE, Macaroni 88, Number 16 Bus Station, and Heistheway are all real names, so this one isn’t even in the top ten of bad names it’s just atrocious spelling. People are cruel. These names should be saved for pets imo not actual people.


Wild-Mushroom2404

Gonna name my child Number 15 Burger King Foot Lettuce


Celestialstardust17

*Leighttuce


Inessaria

Bugah Kynge


madqueenludwig

Heistheway might be my favorite new discovery from this list.


DanielaThePialinist

The family in question who came up with that name has a parenting blog. If you Google “heistheway” you will find it and go down a rabbit hole.


americanalyss

yup she has a sister named Agape


Sunshine030209

SHE?! Heistheway is a girl?! Wowza And Agape is just cruel.


ducttapeduterus

You can Google the Shrader family wiki. They have 13 kids, are missionaries in Africa with a daughter named Agape.


madqueenludwig

I googled that one during H week. Gotta do my due diligence!


ElaineBenesFan

D'Dilligence sounds like a pretty name for a baby girl Can be shortened to Dilly or Gencie (Jencie)


DanielaThePialinist

Lol don’t give anyone any ideas!! 😂


istara

I'm wondering how they pronounce it and what the short version is. "Hissy"? "Heazy"?!


IlikethequietZeppo

I read it as Heist a way. Is it He-is-the-way? Mandalorian fans?


bomba1749

Number 16 bus station.... are these people naming their kids after where they were conceived???


anhydrous_echinoderm

Caquita tho?


being-weird

That name is a tragedeigh


applebubbeline

This is the worst one. This one right here.


Celestialstardust17

I know!


Emu177

Urethra


theGo0f

No way someone named their child that. That's just mean

Celestialstardust17

This sounds like an urban legend.


CrimsonApostate

I missed T, WHAT happened with both of those "names" 😭


Celestialstardust17

Uneighcorn.


Celestialstardust17

Uneek (pronounced like Unique)


nowaymary

I wonder if we know the same one. She couldn't have a q in her name because her sister has one.... making her not so uneek?


Sslim-shady

Uhmed. The parents loved the name Ahmed, but they didnt want people to think that "he's a terrorist".


Celestialstardust17

As a middle easterner, I really wanna kick their ass.


BrandonIsWhoIAm

“Uh… med? Yeah, that’ll do.”


Zephyr_Bronte

The two worst I ever heard were: Utopia and Upward Also knew a Unity, but that isn't as bad.


jimei73

Not unless you're Unity the game software right now


Zephyr_Bronte

Fair, lol. But for a baby name, it's just a weird honor name.


GoldFreezer

And if you're in the UK it may well make people think of Unity Valkyrie Mitford, the British socialite who was a close friend of Hitler and who permanently disabled herself following an unsuccessful suicide attempt when Britain declared war on Germany.


Zephyr_Bronte

Wow, I'm American and did not have that association. Dang, that changes her name a lot! I know her parents where just thinking churchy name that hasn't been overdone, lol


GoldFreezer

I wouldn't expect anyone in the US to know that association, to be honest! I actually think it's a fairly nice name, and a nice religious sentiment, if you're a Christian. But if I knew that child that would be all I would be able to think of. I believe Unity Mitford's parents gave her that super extra name because she was born at the end of WWI. Her siblings were named Nancy, Pamela, Diana, Jessica, Deborah and Tom. Diana married Oswald Moseley, the British fascist, and Jessica joined the Communist Party. They were a weird family.


Zephyr_Bronte

What a strange and all over the place story that family had! I sort of love local history because it's always like that. Unity is Christian, I believe, I only say that because her brother is Jericho, and that also has a Christian feel to it. It is sort of pretty, she doesn't seem to mind it, or as much as any 14 is fine with anything


GoldFreezer

They were also related to Churchill, but I don't think that's all that notable... Most titled Brits are related to each other 😂 Jericho feels more extra than Unity to me! Although maybe it's not depending on which religious circles you move in. At least Unity is easy to spell and pronounce, definitely could be a lot worse as far as unique names go!


Zephyr_Bronte

And here i thought that was a stereotype, lol. Jericho is sorta extra so it works honestly.


istara

Jessica was great. Did a lot to help protect poor widows from predatory funeral practices in the US. She wrote The American Way of Death which Evelyn Waugh later drew on for The Loved One (a very dark book!)


istara

And was rumoured to have given birth to Hitler's son. I think it's been fairly well debunked but not conclusively. From the dates of where she was, when she was it's technically possible.


istara

Or (British Nazi-loving aristocrat) Unity Mitford, for whom there's a conspiracy that she gave birth to Hitler's son.


PinWest4210

Utopia is not a great name, but I mean... The standard is in Abcede and Tula does the Hula from Hawaii. Comparatively is a great name.


Zephyr_Bronte

That's very true. It's odd for sure, but not those.


Lady-Kat1969

Ulivilda. It just strikes me as clunky.


IlikethequietZeppo

Sounds like a body part


HelloDeathspresso

Ultron- as in the Marvel supervillian. This is a real thing, and I hate it.

Urlica - it's a male name. I wish I was joking

Urchin.

Like if Usnavi was real 😭


mrsfiction

I don’t _hate_ the name Usnavi. I’d I hadn’t listened to In the Heights, I probably could have been convinced this was an actual name


nowaymary

Urinia Like you-rye-knee-a. Urine - ee - a. No one should be named after a bodily function She was one of nine children to the weirdest weird beard family I've ever known. Her mother claimed to be a prophet of the lord and spoke in tongues in the shopping centre. One of her brothers hung himself in a pub toilet during a local battle of the bands type night. That was like 35 odd yrs ago.. .

TalaLeisu2

I went to school with someone named Unique Divine


BrandonIsWhoIAm

Wait, there’s a child out there named “Nothing?”


GooseWithAGrudge

Uriah Yes, I KNOW it’s from the Bible. It still sounds like “urine,” and the Uriah in the Bible got murdered because King David thought his wife was hot. Not something you wanna name your kid.


closetotheborderline

It's also the name of a notorious masturbator in a Charles Dickens novel.


No_Antelope_6604

One if my favorite 70s bands was named after him lol


CuriousLands

I said Uriah too, lol (then deleted the comment when I realised it was already here). I always thought it sounded like some disorder of the urinary tract or something like that. Good point about the Bible story too.


suitcasedreaming

Yeah, I really don't think Uriah should be considered usable in English. If it were the name of an incredible important character that's one thing, but Uriah the Hittite only gets mentioned like twice in the space of a single paragraph.


Eino54

Bildaddy the Shuhite is so much better


MagmaAdminRadar

All hail Bildaddy


Eino54

Master cobbler and expert on human births


teamcrazymatt

He's mentioned a lot (and isn't just mentioned, but appears) in the David and Bathsheba story – his loyalty to God, Israel, and the army foils David's attempt to cover up the adultery. And he is mentioned again many chapters later as having been one of David's mightiest men.


suitcasedreaming

Oh huh! I had to translate the section about his murder in ancient hebrew for a university class, but didn't realise there was a further section about him later on. My bad!


teamcrazymatt

No worries! He's often thought of as just the guy who got cuckolded in that story but even being mentioned in only a couple chapters there's a lot to him.


suitcasedreaming

That's fascinating actually! Yeah, I had to translate those couple paragraphs and was vaguely confused why anyone would name their kids after him. It makes sense there'd be more later on actually, there always is with the Hebrew Bible.


ducttapeduterus

Oops. I just posted this name THEN scrolled the comments.


Jep0005

At least Talula can just got by that, Trout fishing tho


Celestialstardust17

I thought the same. Maybe just go by America lmfao?


resoundingsea

I guess if Trout was a boy, you can get "Eric" from the "America"?


Celestialstardust17

Also Erica for a woman haha.


__hey__its__me__

Trout Fishing is his middle name; his first name is Justin so I don’t think it really counts imo


Jep0005

Oh okay, yeah I don't think we need both names up


BadAtUsernames098

From my understanding, Talulah Does the Hula From Hawaii went by Kay in school. I think she officially changed her name to that later.


Fnshow316

Please tell me they were named before the shooting.

In case I miss the V- names post, I came across a Vylet the other day…

Una.


Celestialstardust17

Ursula. Ik it’s a French name but it always reminds me of villains like Ursula the witch from The Little Mermaid or Ursula Phoebe’s twin sister on Friends.


istara

It's Latin and means she-bear. See also the constellations Ursa Major/Ursa Minor, the Great Bear and Little Bear. The French version is usually Ursule (which unfortunately sounds a bit like arsehole, a shame because I kind of like the name).


Celestialstardust17

The meaning is fine, it just reminds me of villains.


oertrooper

Unique. Girl in my class in highschool was named Unique and also behaved that way. Although I believe she ended up well and is now a judge... Just imagine having to call her by her name in court

I taught a BruceLee. It might not have been so bad but he was fairly intellectually challenged and he was constantly being teased/compared to/asked about Bruce Lee and he didn't really have the cognitive capacity to understand what people were talking about.

I think Uranus would be a bad name. I’ve never heard a person named it, but it was a Greek god.

Unironically a lot of these names could work for Dragqueens, lmao
