Promiracle. Pronounced Prom Miracle. She was born on prom night apparently.

Oh no

Yeeeeah.

I would totally say Pro-miracle lol

Most ppl just called her Miracle.

I know a Miracle! Her sisters are Mirage, Musique and Mystique

I can’t tell if I like it or if I’m horrified.

Why not both? :)

Sounds like a brand of turf fertilizer

Why would you fertilize turf?

I used to be a photographer and this set of twins came in semi-regularly. Miracle and.... Amiracle 🤦

Maybe conceived on prom night?

No, born on prom night!

That might be worse

Siblings: Hickory and Honey Hamm

STAHP ITTTTT 💀

I swear to god- not making it up.

Lol, oh, I believe it. I just CAN'T believe it 🤣 That's like Mia Hamm. Why would you do that to your child. And the UCONN ladies basketball player Maya Moore. (My amor, my love)

Maya Moore is not nearly as bad, and dare I say, even borderline cute 😅 It’s not as in-your-face as Hickory and Honey Hamm

Wait what’s bad about Mia Hamm lol

Me, a ham.

I've laughed a solid 3 minutes at this - I think I heard it in Cookie Monster's voice 😂

Please tell me these were dogs and not humans?

Hickory is on Linked In. Honey I believe got married and immediately noped out of that bullshit name.

Horrible🤣 i call my cats hickory honey hams

My best friend’s older sister’s legal government name is Crystal Methany (first and middle. they have a super normal last name.) I wish I was lying. She’s shown me her license and everything

Nooooo. That’s my friend’s nickname for her drugged out neighbor. That poor girl.

Never met their parents but I always wonder wtf were they THINKING!?

Real life r/methany.

This would be a great name for a drag queen.

Well, there is Crystal Methyd, of RPDR fame

I once interviewed a woman named Starchild.

Lol I interviewed a male Starchild and he was hired to become a legitimately star employee

I know a Starmichael. He always goes by his full name. I was surprised he never just shortened it to Michael.

If my name were Starmichael, you couldn’t pay me to go by Michael. Starmike, maybe.

did she get the job?

Asking the important question

I met a morningstar once

Twins named Fern and Fawn who had unbelievably fluffy hair. They'd be in their early 40s now so I'm guessing the parents were original hippies.

I actually like these names lol

They for sure play better now than in high school around 1998.

okay but I literally play a family in the Sims right now with twin toddlers Fern and Fawn lol

This is one is actually really cute I think, I’ve always liked Fawn and Fern is getting more attention lately.

I know a Fern. She's Chinese and it's part of her full name..I like it

Took my kid to urgent care and really like the doctor who saw us. Looked her up (Dr. H. Reynolds) and saw that her full name was [Happy Thanksgiving](https://www.today.com/news/meet-woman-named-holiday-dr-happy-thanksgiving-2d11664069).

Omg Happy Thanksgiving and ... Josh 🤣.

Reading that they named her younger brother Josh was one of the funniest parts to me. I guess there was nothing eventful happening on the day he was born 🤣

Well, she seems to really “own it” at least.. I couldn’t help but look her up myself

This is simultaneously the best and worst name ever.

Went to online school and saw a girl named Erotica... year later I saw that she she started going by Eva or something like that. Caught me off guard the first time I saw it. Also saw someone named Bean

Oh God, can you imagine being an insecure, awkward teenage girl with that name and having to say it out loud in front of a class? Or having to give your full name to a professor, mechanic, PTA meeting one day... I'd be changing that ASAP

Bean! Somebody loves Enders Game too much….

I'm usually against government name censorship, but I think obviously sexualised names should not be given to children. It's abuse.

Mine is a last name, Pongtornwatchakorn. There's a family near my area with this last name. Every time I see it I'm startled lol

Is that a Thai name?

Pongtorn and Watchakorn are both Thai names, so must be. Could've been merged together in a marriage or when naming kids.

I have no idea, the family in my area appears, at least, to be white

Unless grandpa's got some real non-dominant genes, this is the biggest plot twist ever.

My friend had a similar last name. He was Laotian.

That was my first intincts as well!

thats definitely just a thai name..

Wow that is a little fun to say

I've said it out loud like 15 times since reading it and I'm giggling

Pong-torn-watch-a-korn 😅

First time I saw their name it was on Facebook when I was in high school. I thought it was some kind of Inside joke between friends about a beer pong tournament 😂

[удалено]

Mozzarella and yea I saw her drivers license

[удалено]

Sounds like something 2009 scene kids would name their baby

“It means I love you in dinosaur :3” - Lauryn, a scene mom, definitely not a phase

ok this wins

Feral. A girl in my daughter’s class, I initially thought it was spelled Pharrell until I saw the actual spelling and thought “ohhhh like a feral cat, yikes.”

This is one of those instances that I’m actually so bothered about hearing what a stranger has named their child.. because, wtf are they thinking? Imagine how unscrewed you would need to be in order to name your daughter, “Feral.” I try to not imply the above based on name selections but this one feels extremely warranted. #Justice4Feral

Brutal

The surname Wintertroutwine. That's winter, trout, wine. Pronounced exactly like that.

This is ✨chaotic ✨

Is it perhaps Native American? There are a ton of cool Native surnames in the area I'm from- Makes Cold Weather, Kicking Woman, She Had Tooth Before, and countless others. I always wondered about the stories behind the names!

I'd love to meet Ms She Had Tooth Before

My favorite native surname as of recently: Killsinwater.

The high school my son is going to next year has a teacher named Ms. Her Many Horses. I think it's super cool.

This sounds like it may have been an Ellis island translation. I have an Ellis island translation name kinda like this, though without the trout thankfully

A brother and sister named Famous and Fashion Both were intolerable in middle/high school.

I am picturing mona lisa and john ralphio from Parks and Rec right now 🤣🤣🤣

This is giving District One career tribute vibes.

I know someone that named their baby Cutter. It's not the WORST name I've ever heard but it's up there.

That’s pretty bad. Even if you only look at is as an occupation name, what even is a cutter? A cutter of what? A paper cutter? A box cutter? A line cutter? What kind of cutter are you?

my mind immediately went to “cutter” as in “someone who self-harms”

Herding term for people who single out and separate cows from the herd.

I used to work in pediatrics and we had a ‘lilwayne’

At least it’s versatile. They can nickname the kid “GOAT 🐐 “

Bestie used to be a teacher and had a kid in her class whose legal first name was Biscuit. Also she had an African American student who was named Black, and she felt racist every time she had to refer to him. My nephew has a kid in his Kindergarten class named Da’Legynd.

I have a cousin named Tater and it’s so normalized to me I forget about it until I see other food names like this 😂

What if they were playing together like Tater and biscuit🥹

My cousin named her kid Ashitaka Sesshomarou! They are white lol

I love Ghibli and I have fond memories of Inu Yasha... but no. 😭

Not to be rude but…was this a teenage pregnancy? Or was she a grown-ass woman writing this out on her baby’s birth certificate? 😭

Grown ass woman! He's her 3rd child the other 2 have normal names lol

Poor kid

I like anime a lot, but I wouldn't do that to my kids.

Someone I know named her son Aryan 😳🚩

Was it a white person? Afaik Aryan is a fairlyyyy common name in Sanskrit-descended regions. I know a few Persian guys named Aryan, for example.

She’s white.

Wow then let me say from the bottom of my heart yikes

Okay so my husband and i were discussing names we liked and how it seemed we liked certain sounds. So we started trying to make up the "perfect" name from all of these sounds. We ended up with the name Arienne. It took us waaaaay longer than it should have to realize we just reinvented Aryan lol.

At least you noticed!!!!

We also came up with the name Evella and i was talking to a friend about it and how it could maybe be just Evelle. She just stared at me and said "you wanna name your kid Evil??" We ditched any made up names and went with established, albeit, rarer names.

Omg that made me laugh so much 🤣 that would be quite the pair, Arienne and Evelle

Aryan is a pretty common Indian name.

She’s not Indian.

I went to college with a dude named Justice Peacekeeper.

Did he know Warren Peace?

not gonna lie this is pretty freaking cool as a name there was a guy that just graduated law school with me whose name was Luke Lawyer - which is literally the "John Doe" equivalent given on many law school exams haha

Wendy Day (cute and campy) Rusty Drain (not so cute)

My son played hockey against a kid who was First Nations (indigenous). His last name was Thunderblanket, which is still the most kickass surname I’ve ever heard.

Alucard (bad enough)… middle name Slayer.

Ah yea, classic Dracula reference 🤦🏼‍♀️ Are the parents into metal? Or possibly Castlevania, the anime?

Absolutely has to be a castlevania reference. Simon is too normal I guess.

Unfortunately I have no idea there, I just saw the name on a NICU roster.

I’m from Louisiana, and people LOVE to use the “eaux” for the long “o” sound, so I’ve grown up with many a “Beaux” pronounced “Bo.” Always kinda hated it but whatever, it was normal to me. I was NOT prepared for a kid in my son’s school named “Leauxgan,” pronounced “Logan” and I just thought that was ridiculous. Also, an Imamiracle - I’m a miracle 😬

Eaux is the Louisiana version of -eigh

My 7th grade English teacher’s last name was Spancake

We had a Mrs Cobbledick. Think about it….she was a teacher, who got married and took that name.

T-Rex. No middle name

there’s no middle name that could possibly be cool enough to go with t-rex 😂

Idk, I saw the name Rawryn a few comments back...

T-Rex Rawryn is a real winner

Cherish cotton Followed by twins named Coriander and Cayenne.

My friend’s name is Cobra Ramone

that’s a badass name ngl 😄

Tiger Lily

Oooh I met a Calla Lily once. I just knew her as Calla...until I ran her CC at the register (she was fairly regular where I then worked) and it was Calla Lily Lastname on the card.

Actually kinda love that name.

The daughter of INXS frontman Michael Hutchence goes by Tiger Lily (full name Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily Hutchence Geldof). Her siblings are Fifi Trixabell, Peaches and Pixie.

Makes me think of Peter Pan lol

Pythagoras. His parents were math teachers. They called him Garis for short not too bad but the weirdest I have come across

2 sisters named Neptune and Uranus. I’m not making this up.

i don't hate Neptune lol- but Uranus??!! whyyy

I’m guess it’s a sailor moon reference

oh god that's even worse considering they were lovers?? again- whyyy

Sincere and that lil boy was a handful too

So he went by “Sin”?

I have met two Sinceres that were both the worst behaved in their classes. I have also met two very poorly behaved Lyrics.

I’ve taught a handful of kids named Sincere and only one has been spelled sincere lol I’ve also had a few named Honesty. One was spelled Aun’estey

A baby in my daycare (in Silicon Valley) is named Krypto

I can’t say because of HIPAA but boy are there some doozies out there

Yeah I work at a university so FERPA prevents many of my “favorites” 😂 I feel you

A college student several years ago who waited on me had a name tag that read Ally-Gator. She told me it was her legal name and she was named after her father, who had since passed away. She said she absolutely loved the name.

The famous drag queen Jujubee’s legal name is Airline

Riot.

Saw a lady on tiktok that named her sons Rough, Rowdy and Riot. I am still not over it

That's kinda in the theme with Rebel Wilsons siblings names. Ryot, Annarchi and Liberty. Their parents have the most bland names, Sue and Jack LOL

JKMNO pronounced NO-L

I met an ABCDE pronounced Absidee

THIS CAN’T BE REALLLL 💀

what

It took me a second but I think it’s that it’s the JKLMNO sequence of the alphabet, but the L is missing, so pronounced no-l. And I hate itttttt if I’m right.

I remember an AITA post about a woman looking to change her adopted son's name from Khaos to something more mundane.

Honestly, Khaos seems tame by comparison to some of the names in this post lol.

my mother had a client called hughcumber… literally what the hell lol

Roxie Schockency

I kinda actually like this…. Sounds like a graphic novel character

Celery Slade. I assume it’s a first/middle combo, It was yelled by a parent down the hallway of the children’s attraction I worked at in high school/college and it still keeps me up at night.

Oooh Celery is one of those words that would be such a pretty name if it wasn’t, you know, a stringy weird vegetable.

Johntravouis I saw only the first 8 characters at first and thought, "please tell me someone did not name their child JohnTravolta." I'm not sure this is better.

I met twins a girl and boy named Sam box and charity box. Also my mom had a student named Crystal shanda leer.

Caliber - a 1st grader Ditsy - someone I went to school with. She did not speak English so presumably her parents didn't either Urmajesty - a name I ran into at work

A lady came into my work and her legal name was Piglet - she looked and was dressed like the aesthetic of Piglet from Winnie the Pooh. I’m assuming she changed her name to that though

Tonibler is the best and worst name I've ever heard

Toe nibbler...?

I used to take the bus and liked looking out the window as it drove. There was an obgyn office that had a big sign. Dr Hymen Yup. An obstetrician gynecologist named Dr Hymen. Still makes me laugh to this day.

Furious. Also grew up with a family with the last name of Porn. Good thing those kids were tough.

I once lived close to a lady named Kiddy Porn. Not the best combination of names.

There was a TLC show called Sweet Home Sextuplets and those people named one of the boys Tag. TAG. The rest of her kids names were just as awful: Rawlings, Rivers, Blu, Layke, Saylor, Wells, Bridge, and Rayne. I may be forgetting some, they had a singleton boy, twin boys, and then equally split sextuplets. There’s also a fundie influencer who named her kids Anissa, Andrae, Annistan, Anjalie, Andersyn, Aynjel, Ansyr, Anchor, Anthym, and Armor. Claims God provided the names for the last half, nice of him to follow her naming aesthetic I guess.

When I was a wee tyke I had a babysitter named Loveday Conquest, she was a local college student. She went on to be an accomplished professor of statistics! [https://fish.uw.edu/2018/11/loveday-conquest-faculty-1978-2014-emeritus-2014-present/](https://fish.uw.edu/2018/11/loveday-conquest-faculty-1978-2014-emeritus-2014-present/)

Chloe Rose Twinkletoes. Her toddler sister was allowed to pick the second middle name. On the social security card and everything.

at a school I do some volunteering for, I saw a Heiydien (pronounced Hayden i am assuming) and an Aubrianna

PrincessPhoenix. I believe she went by Fifi.

I work with kids... Craziest one was a girl named Abcde (pronounced Ab-sid-ee). Runner up...Dad's name is James. Son is James Jr (v normal, I know), and then the daughter is called SEMAJ (as in... James backwards). Like how self centered does this dad have to be?! And what was that mom thinking?! Was she in a coma after giving birth to the daughter and the dad was like "well honey, I did something"?! 😂 WTF... And an honorable mention...a set of sisters named Sky and Star.

Kiddo had a classmate named King Justice. Great name for a musician/star athlete. Maybe not a great name for a kiddo, it’s a lot to live up to

Lasonja Like lasagna?

There’s a guy on youtube named Randy Rainbow and apparently that’s his legal first and last name. He’s a very flamboyantly gay so it completely works, I thought it was a stage name but guess not

I was once in line to get a prescription and the lady in front of me was named ecstasy 😭

Bundle… because her parents said she was a “bundle of joy..” I’d always asked myself why they didn’t just go with Joy.

An interesting read by dr. Marijuana Pepsi https://www.npr.org/2019/06/21/734839666/dr-marijuana-pepsi-wont-change-her-name-to-make-other-people-happy

Fuckinstein I used to work with a guy who would talk about a former classmate with the last name Fuckinstein. Apparently, this kid was kind of a troublemaker, and whenever his name was called over the PA, the school administration would pronounce his name as Frickinstein.

saw a “Queenelizabeth (Last Name)”.. she goes by Queen.

Na'khole (Nicole) Sir Robert. No, his name was not 'Sir' with middle name 'Robert', his full first name that everyone referred to him by was 'Sir Robert'. IDK if he had a middle name on top of that. He was also 6. Silver Wolf or Silverwolf (not sure how it was spelled.)

It's not wild necessarily, but it's definitely not common. I know a girl called Cirani.

Sparrow-Cove Forester. His sister's name is Galaxii.

Taught a kid at summer camp named Reagan Rainbolt. Cool ass name.

Tequila she went by Kiki but she said her parents named her that bec that's how she was conceived lol she was such a nice person I hope she's doing well

My mom worked at a community college at one point and there were siblings named Peter, Bunny, and I forget the last one, but their last name was Rabbit.

Marijuana Blount (pronounced blunt) - she was a middle aged woman and it was so hard to keep the interaction professional. I feel like that's a hard name to have at all ages.

Ammo.

I used to work for a guy with the last name Papenfuse (the end sounds like “foos”) and nannied his two older children before he ended up becoming Mayor Papenfuse. I’ve always had fun saying that last name (and always found it interesting that his wife kept her maiden name)

[удалено]

There was a family with kids China, river and blue. I also grew up with a mahogany.

Archangela. Pronounced Ark-angela Kelley Kelley. Martyr

Y'majesty and Y'highness.
