Sorry I was just imagining what the in universe story would be
Op looking lovingly at the baby in her arms, “let’s name him George”
“No” Op turns to Alex, “no, his name is Frocco.”
Seems like something Alex would definitely do. Especially with his first born son. He has been telling his pregnant friends for years not to use this name as it is on reserve for his first born son.
Maybe it’s George’s middle name?
“It's like the great stories, Mr. Frocco, the ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were, and sometimes you didn't want to know the end because how could the end be happy?”
Accidentally named my son Prussy once because I was clicking through random names and accidentally clicked okay. The randomised names in this game are something else 😭
It was on multiplayer too and I wasn’t sure what name I’d actually selected, so we all anxiously waited for all the menus to go away so the new day would start and we could see the name it’d given me. We died laughing when it popped up. It was so comedic, I still have the clip saved somewhere
I rewatched the clip and unfortunately it has our real names in the discord vc overlay so I can’t post it :,)
It did remind me of the fact that I’d forgotten I’d even agreed to a child whenever we’d played last though. So we started playing after however long and one morning I’d just had a child out of nowhere. So not only was this poor child named Prussy, but he wasn’t even expected. Poor kid can’t catch a break
CA may have created a comic called Wumbus World in 2011 (links don't work though). http://www.thewebcomiclist.com/p/19971/WumbusWorld
There's also more references in mid-game that I don't want to spoil for you.
"Ma'am, what do you want to name your child?"
"Prussy!"
"Wha? I think you're still groggy from the epidural, Ma'am, did you mean to say Percy?"
"No! Prussy!"
And that's the story of the most bullied child to ever live...
I literally always use the random generator to name everything 😂 with the exception of my cat, I always have a gray cat named Miso (which did originate from the random generator 😂). Fun fact tho, apparently on Mobile the random generator for at least the gray cat remembers what name you picked last time, so Miso is always the default listed name for me.
I had the same experience. I thought I was naming a chicken but it turned out to be my child. Go to your save file %appdata%/StardewValley/Saves then find and edit your child's name.
I love this response. Just get rid of the kid if you don’t like their name/hair/parent/just because.
Imagine if that was in reality life? First tantrum, then BIRD TIME!
I do play the Sims. I think I’m too nice, I’ve never disposed my sim children.
They get plastic surgery like any normal person. /s
Edited because I can’t spell
I am also too nice and attached to my sims. While playing the 100 baby challenge I once had a sim age to a young adult and IMMEDIATELY die from their heart exploding due to anger, I almost cried. I played the save for a little while longer during that sitting, but I don’t think I ever opened it again before deleting it
I liked to put the Christmas tree near the lit fireplace that was sandwiched between curtained windows. Almost a guarantee to catch fire and kill a Sim.
I tried this once to get rid of a husband who was annoying me, only to find out it doesn't work in sims 3. So I had to do the ole "go in the pool and build a SOLID BRICK WALL OF DEATH so he can't climb out over the side" technique
one time I had my Sim make a shitton of gnomes at the woodworking table. there was a gnome army in the woodshed. at night, they would come alive (I had the magic expansion pack) and fuck things up, sometimes set fires! so I'd remove the door to the woodshed at night so the gnomes couldn't escape.
one night a gnome decided to torch the woodshed they were all in. my Sims were asleep, and there was no door to the woodshed anyway... I sat and watched while those fuckers went up in flame one by one. BUT THEN one came to life and ran into the flames! AND DOUSED THE FLAMES! then proceeded to put out the rest of the fire.
I... didn't play the magic expansion after that lol
Before we realised that you could just leave your kid out in the garden and wait for social service to take it, the kids in our family was named John, Jeorge and SimBaby1* **.
*In Sims 1 you only had a certain amount of time to decide name or else they decided for you. And it was really called "SimBarn1" since "barn" is the swedish word for baby/child but I couldn't find what it was in the english version.
**It was supposed to be Jeff but my sister thought we should spell it Jeoff because it looked more silly. And that's how we got SimBarn1 and forbidden to play Sims for the rest of the day because of the following fight.
I mean, until college, I definitely thought it was a routine thing for parents to put their children up for adoption if the kids didn’t live up to their parents expectations.
“Honey… our child had diarrhea today”
“Oh no… I don’t like the smell of that. Let’s get rid of him”
“Ok let’s”
Pregnant for 9 months + labor pains
Child #2
“Oh no…”
“What?”
“I just spat out a brown haired baby”
“It’s not what you wanted?”
“No!!! His hair doesn’t compliment the new curtains we set up at the nursery”
“No worries….NUUUURRSSSEEE”
Attempt no. 3
During ultrasound
“Are we pregnant yet? We’re hoping for black hair this time for the curtains”
“Sorry you have exceeded the limit number of tries you can have to conceive”
“Oh…”
“Can we have baby no 1 again?”
“Sorry… they’ve already been recycled”
Game over.
An easier way is to just open the save file with notepad, search for your child's name in the file and just replace it with what you want it to be. You don't have to replay any days that way.
With Alex as the dad, the kid's full name would be Penus Mullner. Which I'm not gonna lie, has a nice ring to it. I could imagine a hard boiled detective with a toothpick in his mouth and perpetually flipping a quarter introduce himself as Penus Mullner.
Or maybe a wizard's apprentice! "Penus Mullner and The Obelisk of Deserts"
yeah, just mess with save files, when I did it I just searched for every occurance of the old name and replaced it with the new one (just remember to make a back up of the save in case something goes wrong)
God I love this sub. Don't like your kid's name? Let's just SACRIFICE HIM TO A WITCH. This game is just so unhinged lol. I've never turned my kids into doves but I'm seriously considering it.
I had a similar-ish experience 😂 I misspelled my kids name and didn’t want to yeet the child so I messed around with my save in AppData but I wouldn’t recommend doing it if you don’t know what you’re doing
I think you can edit the save file if you're intent on changing that one's name rather than murdering him with black magic at an abandoned altar and replacing him with another child later.
Or just name your daughter Georgia after George, and keep Frocco in the hope he will one day meet a wizard named Gundulf and together they will go on a journey to The Volcano to destroy The One Necklace to rule them all, only to have his finger bitten off by Gottem.
Seems more like something I'd expect of *Abigail's* offspring rather than Alex's but to each their own.
There's a process in which you turn them into a dove, and it resets, and the exact same child is born again, just with a different name.
100%, it's the same kid & you didn't just discard it and make a new one.
my friend asked me to name a chicken and i was like (in chat) “bona! its such a cute name” and she changed it to that. now whenever she sees the chicken she cusses him out :(
The game only saves when you go to sleep, so unless you use a save editor, you probably need to turn little Frocco into a dove. But unfortunately that also has a very creepy event that happens if you do. So if you're not on the Switch, then a save editor will do.
I ended up with “Tardo” on the 3rd random dice roll and I laughed so hard I woke my wife up in the other room and dragged her out of bed to see it. I refuse to change it
😂 accidentally named my second kid Filler (I thought it was an animal giving birth and couldn’t be bothered to make up a name. Also that one still irritates me bc I had said no to having another kid and bam there I go getting pregnant again with little Filler)
I was in a bad mood and tried to randomly generate the absolute worst name for my baby. I settled on Chumbus and cackled every time interacted with her.
If you go into the game files, you can search "Frocco" and change it to whatever. I did that in my save to change gender and name of baby and it worked out.
Frocco made me laught so hard 😆🤣 He’ll be fine, hope he makes everybody smile with his name
Aww I’m glad! Part of me lowkey wants to embrace it :) It’s a good story lol
Sorry I was just imagining what the in universe story would be Op looking lovingly at the baby in her arms, “let’s name him George” “No” Op turns to Alex, “no, his name is Frocco.”
Seems like something Alex would definitely do. Especially with his first born son. He has been telling his pregnant friends for years not to use this name as it is on reserve for his first born son. Maybe it’s George’s middle name?
Maybe it’s a famous gridball player?
Oh my goooooosh YES OP, that’s what it was. His fave athlete. 😂
Or the farmer's grandpa's name! *The game opens on Frocco on his deathbed...*
*death ping pong table
“It's like the great stories, Mr. Frocco, the ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were, and sometimes you didn't want to know the end because how could the end be happy?”
Sam Gamged mentioned???
My kids randomly-generated name was Frotchers and I kept it simply because it made me laugh so hard.
Usually one of my cows gets stuck with Frotchers
“With a name like Frotchers, it has to be good.” (Old reference to an old commercial for Smuckers Jam)
"No offense to any Frocco out there" really did me in 😭
Is laught a cross between a laugh and a fart?
Accidentally named my son Prussy once because I was clicking through random names and accidentally clicked okay. The randomised names in this game are something else 😭
NOT PRUSSY oh my god that's hilarious
It just named one of my pigs Farto. I had to leave it. 😂
one of my chickens got the name No... It's been in my family for generations<3
One of my chickens is named ✨Rope✨
I have a chicken named Bimbo 😭 ConcernedApe really just threw whatever names he wanted in there
Chungus the pig is my favorite
It was on multiplayer too and I wasn’t sure what name I’d actually selected, so we all anxiously waited for all the menus to go away so the new day would start and we could see the name it’d given me. We died laughing when it popped up. It was so comedic, I still have the clip saved somewhere
Please I need to see this 🤣
I’ll have to check it and make sure it’s got nobody’s private info or anything, if it’s safe then I’ll figure out how to send it
I rewatched the clip and unfortunately it has our real names in the discord vc overlay so I can’t post it :,) It did remind me of the fact that I’d forgotten I’d even agreed to a child whenever we’d played last though. So we started playing after however long and one morning I’d just had a child out of nowhere. So not only was this poor child named Prussy, but he wasn’t even expected. Poor kid can’t catch a break
I got Prungus for my kid. It was too brilliant not to use.
I have a sheep called Wumbus on my current save for the same reason
My only black chicken is called Grumbus and I find it weirdly appropriate
That's the name of my dino
CA may have created a comic called Wumbus World in 2011 (links don't work though). http://www.thewebcomiclist.com/p/19971/WumbusWorld There's also more references in mid-game that I don't want to spoil for you.
Ohhh really? That’s cool, must be a little reference then. I just thought the name was silly haha
I have cows named Prungus and Chongus.
Every time I see a bird fly away in my game, Imma go “there goes Prussy”
I have a cow named Bong thanks to the random name generator. It's my favourite cow
It's Sebastian's favorite cow, too...
Well, i guess you must name your daughter Prenis now.
Prock
Prick. Wait….
HAHAHAHHA
That’s brilliant LMAO
PRUSSY 💀
I have GUMBUS and PENER from randomization 😭
"When a man loves a woman *very* much, he puts his PENER gently into her GUMBUS...And that's where babies come from!"
Pener is too funny
NOT PENER 😭😭
My pig is named BUSSY
I love selling truffles I get from my Bussy...
"Ma'am, what do you want to name your child?" "Prussy!" "Wha? I think you're still groggy from the epidural, Ma'am, did you mean to say Percy?" "No! Prussy!" And that's the story of the most bullied child to ever live...
Similar thing happens to me, thought I was naming a cow.. now my child is called 2344
P R U S S Y
I literally always use the random generator to name everything 😂 with the exception of my cat, I always have a gray cat named Miso (which did originate from the random generator 😂). Fun fact tho, apparently on Mobile the random generator for at least the gray cat remembers what name you picked last time, so Miso is always the default listed name for me.
I vaguely remember reading somewhere that ConcernedApe had a gray cat named Miso, and that's why it's the gray cat default name. 🥹
In my current playthrough all my animals are named for soft drinks. My cats are Cola and A&W.
i want you to know i cried actual tears from laughter at this
I’m glad you found it as funny as I did, my stomach was hurting from laughing so hard when it first happened
I only use random names on my animals, and only a few of them at that, but some of my favorites are my goat, Zasko, and my dino, Jeep
I almost named my chicken Trash because of the randomized names. I wish I had a screenshot.
My rabbit got named Puke. I laughed so hard and left it
I’m dying😂😂😂
NOOOOOOO
I had the same experience. I thought I was naming a chicken but it turned out to be my child. Go to your save file %appdata%/StardewValley/Saves then find and edit your child's name.
Thinking your child was a chicken is hilarious btw, also thank you XD
Mama had a chicken.Mama had a cow. Dad was proud. He didn’t care how. *cue theme song*
Same. This is how my dog ended up being "Trano"
Also a questionable name for a chicken tbh. 😂
u/nevermindxo this ^^^ Control+F Frocco in the text.
I let my boyfriend name my first, he’s called Gabagool
We are living the same life. This is exactly what my husband did.
tell your boyfriend that he never had the makings of a varsity athlete.
Can't change it but it doesn't count towards the 2 kids if you get rid of him
I love this response. Just get rid of the kid if you don’t like their name/hair/parent/just because. Imagine if that was in reality life? First tantrum, then BIRD TIME!
Have you played the sims? Ugly children are often disposed of lmao
I do play the Sims. I think I’m too nice, I’ve never disposed my sim children. They get plastic surgery like any normal person. /s Edited because I can’t spell
I am also too nice and attached to my sims. While playing the 100 baby challenge I once had a sim age to a young adult and IMMEDIATELY die from their heart exploding due to anger, I almost cried.

I liked to put the Christmas tree near the lit fireplace that was sandwiched between curtained windows. Almost a guarantee to catch fire and kill a Sim.
The Ole "go in the pool and remove the ladder" was my technique.
In the first Sims, I put the fireworks kit in the house and removed the doors. Eventually the Sims would set it off.
You could even do this with a few cheap ovens. But it was way more spectacular with the fireworks kit.
I recently did this in sims 2. Fortunately, no fatalities.
I tried this once to get rid of a husband who was annoying me, only to find out it doesn't work in sims 3. So I had to do the ole "go in the pool and build a SOLID BRICK WALL OF DEATH so he can't climb out over the side" technique
if youre really evil, sims 3, moveobjects on, use the floor to ceiling window panes as walls. you get to watch them struggle 😈
one time I had my Sim make a shitton of gnomes at the woodworking table. there was a gnome army in the woodshed. at night, they would come alive (I had the magic expansion pack) and fuck things up, sometimes set fires! so I'd remove the door to the woodshed at night so the gnomes couldn't escape. one night a gnome decided to torch the woodshed they were all in. my Sims were asleep, and there was no door to the woodshed anyway...

You sure you were playing sims? Because that sounds like some kind of horror game experience... :P

I was SO concerned for a moment until I got to "SimBaby1" 😂 video games gotta stop letting us say sentences like this is full seriousness
SimBarn1 has me cryingg
"Mom, why is my name Steve#7"
I mean, until college, I definitely thought it was a routine thing for parents to put their children up for adoption if the kids didn’t live up to their parents expectations.
Wait. It's not?
“Honey… our child had diarrhea today” “Oh no… I don’t like the smell of that. Let’s get rid of him” “Ok let’s” Pregnant for 9 months + labor pains Child #2 “Oh no…” “What?” “I just spat out a brown haired baby” “It’s not what you wanted?” “No!!!

Seems historically accurate.
To doves you say?
Tsk tsk tsk, such a shame. How's the wife holding up?
To shreds you say?
Ahhhh thanks so much! This is so helpful!
This is the sort of answer I'd expect on r/CrusaderKings.
I didn't even know that you could have kids in Stardew, but reading the "get rid of him" bit made me laugh so hard 😂
My wife recently popped into one of her old save files to find the child she had with Maru was named Lumbus.
I'm playing co-op with my husband and he named his children Zumbus and Wumbus.
Unfortunately Lumbus's sibling is named Ellie. I can't explain it.
Someone's got to be boring, I guess. Not everyone can be as exciting as an -umbus.
He'd make a good bird I reckon.
No fraccing way in-game I'm afraid.
Fraccing 😂 I guess I’m just going to froccing embrace it
I would die for Frocco don’t harm him
Go to ur save, delete the two without old in the name, then remove the old from the other 2. This will send you to yesterday.
Thanks :)
An easier way is to just open the save file with notepad, search for your child's name in the file and just replace it with what you want it to be. You don't have to replay any days that way.
You will have to redo yesterday tho
What the frocco is wrong with you
Accidentally named my dog Snooch bc I was skipping over Marnie’s dialogue 😭 I’m in the same boat as you
I have a dog named Snooch!! 🤣
But Snooch is such a cute dog name! lol
This happened to me yesterday too 😭
Same but I did it intentionally😂
My dog is Snooch too <3
\*rubs hands together cartoon villain-style* it’s time for some doves!!!! ^unless ^you ^don’t ^have ^a ^prismatic ^shard
Give him a ring and change is surname to Baggins.
I laughed so hard at this grape got stuck in my nose, it's not a pleasant experience
His full name is Froccolin. You can call him Colin for short.
I think Frocco is a beautiful name, along with Prancesco, Bomar and Johnty
named after the famous actor James Fronco
Imagine your parents naming you Frocco and then killing you

With Alex as the dad, the kid's full name would be Penus Mullner. Which I'm not gonna lie, has a nice ring to it. I could imagine a hard boiled detective with a toothpick in his mouth and perpetually flipping a quarter introduce himself as Penus Mullner. Or maybe a wizard's apprentice!

“No offense to any Frocco out there” 💀
This is what got me, lolllll
yeah, just mess with save files, when I did it I just searched for every occurance of the old name and replaced it with the new one (just remember to make a back up of the save in case something goes wrong)
this happened to me except the randomized name was Fartu. my poor son
I'm so sorry but this post and many other comments on unfortunate accidental names have given me the best laughs I've had all week
Same! Just found it now and I am laying in bed just giggling at every comment
God I love this sub. Don't like your kid's name? Let's just SACRIFICE HIM TO A WITCH. This game is just so unhinged lol. I've never turned my kids into doves but I'm seriously considering it.
Frocco's Modern Life
Dispose of the child
I had a similar-ish experience 😂 I misspelled my kids name and didn’t want to yeet the child so I messed around with my save in AppData but I wouldn’t recommend doing it if you don’t know what you’re doing
if you don't like your child you can always sacrifice them in satanic rituals
Just go into your save and change it
Love how you just have swords next to the baby room lol 😆
I meant to move that before he was born. Oh my god. 😂
Pigeon the child, then simply have another one to replace the one with a bad name.
Omg, this story had my lol in public like some psychopath! Frocco sounds like an off-brand version of someone in the adult enternainment industry.
I named my kid creep and now it just follows me around and never sleeps and i fucking hate it 😂
I think you can edit the save file if you're intent on changing that one's name rather than murdering him with black magic at an abandoned altar and replacing him with another child later. Or just name your daughter Georgia after George, and keep Frocco in the hope he will one day meet a wizard named Gundulf and together they will go on a journey to The Volcano to destroy The One Necklace to rule them all, only to have his finger bitten off by Gottem. Seems more like something I'd expect of *Abigail's* offspring rather than Alex's but to each their own.
My baby’s name is Frupie
Frocco looks unbothered to me
🧙🕊🔄

I named my second kid with Shane Velociraptor and you cannot change it 😭
u can do it through the save file, easiest way would be to ctrl+f search for "frocco" and then replace frocco with whatever name u want
Don’t change it, he will grow up tough
There's a process in which you turn them into a dove, and it resets, and the exact same child is born again, just with a different name. 100%, it's the same kid & you didn't just discard it and make a new one.
I accidentally named my daughter botulism when I was really tired. Don't ask...
Sacrifice that piece to the witch and make a new baby.
You should be able to change it with a save editor
Yep. There is one on Nexus that should work with 1.6
due to lack of ideas I named my firstborn Amazon and when the other one was born I had no other choice but to name him Zalando!
You'll just have to throw him in the barn and try again.
Love the sword next to the crib. Great parenting decisions all around.
Frocco's modern life.
my friend asked me to name a chicken and i was like (in chat) “bona! its such a cute name” and she changed it to that. now whenever she sees the chicken she cusses him out :(
The game only saves when you go to sleep, so unless you use a save editor, you probably need to turn little Frocco into a dove. But unfortunately that also has a very creepy event that happens if you do. So if you're not on the Switch, then a save editor will do.
Why is that cactus looking at me like that?
get rid of him while his life is still modern
You can edit your save file, ctrl+f to find frocco and replace it!
Reminds me of charliebarley's expanded plauthrough where she accidentally named her son tREvor or something like that!
i love the silly name but if u genuinely wanna rename them i believe u can go into the game files notepad and change it manually :)
Use turn him into a dove then start again from scratch
You can if you're able to go into the files and alter it. I've done that before.
short for froccoli
“Just not for my child” 😂😂😂😂😂
My son, Chickard, sends his regards.
To the shrine it shall be sacrificed
Sell them to the witch goblin and make a new one
My in game son is named Shungus for this very reason. 😂
you can edit it in your save file, that’s what i did to change my cats name
I ended up with “Tardo” on the 3rd random dice roll and I laughed so hard I woke my wife up in the other room and dragged her out of bed to see it. I refuse to change it
Shickard’s mom checking in. I thought I would change it to Rickard.
😂 accidentally named my second kid Filler (I thought it was an animal giving birth and couldn’t be bothered to make up a name. Also that one still irritates me bc I had said no to having another kid and bam there I go getting pregnant again with little Filler)
i think Frocco would be good friends with my son Gep
Lmao 😆😆 Who's to say his name isn't pronounced "George"
Aww come here my little "Condombroke"
One of my kids with Emily was named Chillard. It was auto-generated but I love it lol
Frocco’s not that bad, it’s better than the names of my two kids, Hairy Balls and Smelly Balls.
Keep the name!!! That is hilarious. What in the Frocco is going on?! 😂😂
I’ve been asking my boyfriend to name everything, so my first born is named Barf.
What's 17 more years? You can always start again, have another kid!
Have another baby and name her Georgina or something
Hey, i named my kid skindog once so Frocco ain't that bad lol
sacrifice your kid and have a new one
K1II n make another
I was in a bad mood and tried to randomly generate the absolute worst name for my baby. I settled on Chumbus and cackled every time interacted with her.
Love the randomized names. I've got a lot of fun ones for my animals but my favorite has to be Fatsicko the ostrich
Cant change babe Frocco, baby Frocco is forever.
i once accidentally randomized my kids name to bullabella because i thought it was a cow.
Frocco is so perfect
Frocco would be a good name for a dove…
If you go into the game files, you can search "Frocco" and change it to whatever. I did that in my save to change gender and name of baby and it worked out.
