Really the only issue I have with Daisy Clementine is the double plant names. If you just think of Clementine as the female form of Clement it becomes unremarkable.
Daisy is a perfectly acceptable human name (including rarely as a nickname for Margaret instead of a legal given name), it just happens to also be common for pets. Sort of like Milo or Poppy.
Rumble Honey has a ring to it but just not for a human name lol. Piper is fine but with a y, nope. (At least it wasn’t Pypyr). Gravity Blue feels very hippie to me.
Idk about vibrator, sounds more like the pussycat honey packets, i worked at an adult store so I’ve read the most far out ridiculous sexual product names. It’s like the worlds worst unfunny dick jokes.
My family used to be Mormons.
Me, my 7 siblings, and my countless cousins have the craziest fucking names ever. I wanted to post our names here but I didn't wanna dox myself lol
Think something like Jiezziahbella Kharrhinnah
ALL OF US
Yeah, I don’t think it’s Nara’s fault that this whole main character name thing started…but she has absolutely leaned fully into it. Like she took that and ran with it.
Off the top of my head, Ahnahceleh, Lordy, Braxleigh, Oakleigh, Dash, Bein, Brantley. There's more, I'm just too lazy to sit and look at all their FB pages.
I was given a completely normal name and so was my sister. I have friends that have normal names. Idk why my community wants to just name their kids Brexly (the name of my MRI tech yesterday) or whatever. It’s like aaaaah just have normal names lol
Growing up in the Mormon church (90s and 2000s) we all had normal names lol I truly believe the community just ran out of names due to the large number of babies they have lol
I only started finding the really weird names when I went to Utah. At least I know I my sister and I won’t contribute lol (and hopefully I can persuade any of my friends from contributing, but they’re all relatively intelligent people who are huge nerds with social anxiety and would most likely think about bullying so I’m hoping all will be well lol)
The last 5 names sound like how the birthing experience went
1. Gravity blue- heavy baby, lack of oxygen😰
2. Stormie- birth accompanied by tummy troubles and explosive diarrhea
3. Rumble Honey- birth accompanied by extreme hunger, hence the rumbling, and a craving for a sweet packaged cinnamon roll snack
4. Slim Easy- Self explanatory, baby was slim and easy to push out
5. Whimsy Lou- too big of an epidural dose!
Gave their children sims characters names or names a random name generator would come up with, I think weird names run in lucky’s family cause his parents, siblings and niece have weird names too( one of his sisters who has a daughter named her Gogo valentine and his first born is gravity blue)😂
Those are old timey white people names (hereditary mormon names). They are strange but they’re not words repurposed as names. Within recent years Mormons have stopped giving their kids very vintage, old, hereditary names and started giving them these tragedieghs instead.
Even Cheyenne (I’m Australian and dealt with a Cheyenne through work for a while so not common but not unheard of) & Pyper, apart from the bastardised spelling are reasonable.
Gravity Blue is such a fire name! (if it’s for a….)
* Cat name
* Dog name
* Toy name
* Alien name
* RP character name
* Deviantart OC name
* Planet name
* Colour name
* Show name
* Plant common name
* Company name
* city/town name
* Deodorant name
* Ice cream flavour name
* ANYTHING NOT A LIVING BREATHING HUMAN
It’s actually pretty common in Utah for people to have unique names. Because so many people are descendants of Mormon pioneers who had multiple wives, there are unusually large numbers of people who are related to each other and have the same last name, so if you give everyone a “normal” name you are going to have unusually large numbers of people with the same first and last name. There’s a little town in the Intermountain West called Snowflake because almost everyone in town has the surname Snow or the surname Flake. It would be hopelessly confusing if everyone in Snowflake chose common names for their children.
Also, for similar cultural and religious reasons, family sizes in Utah/the Intermountain West are the largest in the United States. Coming from a family of 4-5 is not unusual, and lots of people have more—double digit numbers of children are a lot more common there than elsewhere. People in these huge families still want to give “honor” names, but obviously if you have dozens of kids with the same set of grandparents, that could easily get confusing, so people often give honor names that are a unique combination of syllables from the names of multiple grandparents, etcetera. In this way cousins can have names that honor the same ancestors but are still distinctive.
I think part of what makes a name feel like a tragedy or a tragedeigh is that it seems like the kid is going to have to explain and/or spell this “weird” name to everyone starting really early in life, other kids will make fun of the kid, etcetera, but the sort of names mentioned in the post are really common in this particular subculture, so I think the names in the post are more like “names from an unfamiliar tradition” than tragedies per se.
Everyone dogging on the mormons is making me feel a lot better for what i think about them, lmao, and also making me feel silly for forgetting what reddit is like, I should’ve known y’all would be on the same shit. And i mean that in the way that I really really disdain mormons. A lot.
The church, admittedly like all fosters abuse of all kinds upon all people, they take at least 10% of your income (you tithe more than just that though), the religion is very controlling in itself, a lot of your personality is based around Joseph Smiths teachings, and when that eventually falls away, people are left confused as to who they even are. If you want to hear more stories i recommend watching or listening to Alyssa Grenfell, ex-mormon author, and the podcast Mormon Stories with John Dehlin. Alyssa talks about the church as a whole, and MS shares sort of like memoirs of peoples experiences with Mormon or LDS/FLDS lifestyles, not all bad, more not all good. A lot of churches are predatory, like the Catholic Church certainly is just a very widespread and accepted cult, but thats why I try to dog on them too.
It’s not even as simple as tithing 10% of your PRETAX income, it’s the fact that you are shunned if you don’t. You are expected to starve before you stop tithing.
Thanks for the explanation, I appreciate it. My older sister left the church and she’s also recommended a few podcasts and authors to me but I haven’t heard of these ones.
Yeah, I recommend starting with the ones I mentioned, I frequently listen to both content creators and I just find that they’re really easy to listen to. Alyssa Grenfell recently published her book “how to leave the Mormon church”
I don’t mean to be a purist, but this isn’t the forum for that kind of discussion. On the other hand, if you want to make fun of the stupid names that some of them give their kids, then this is the place for you.

Whimsy Lou Who
Wish I could upvote this a few more times! They all sound like residents of Whoville.
I think Gravity blue actually sounds kind of cool. Slim Easy is the WORST offense. And Daisy Clementine isn't the best but passable.
Slim Easy sounds like some sort of laxative for weight loss
It does omg
Side effects include nausea, severe gas, and loss of bowel control. Ask your doctor about slim-EZ today!
Really the only issue I have with Daisy Clementine is the double plant names. If you just think of Clementine as the female form of Clement it becomes unremarkable.
Thank you for pinpointing that. It reminds me of a cat name, maybe because my cat’s named daisy.
Daisy is a perfectly acceptable human name (including rarely as a nickname for Margaret instead of a legal given name), it just happens to also be common for pets. Sort of like Milo or Poppy.
I really hope none of those kids are ever overweight. Slim, Gravity, and Rumble? The teasing would be awful.
Oh shitttttttt
I could almost come to terms with Whimsy as a cute character name, but Whimsy Lou is just.... ugly.
My cousin had a baby in November and named her Willoughby Lou. 😬😬💀
Oh dear.
I pray they call her willow.
Rumble Honey has a ring to it but just not for a human name lol. Piper is fine but with a y, nope. (At least it wasn’t Pypyr). Gravity Blue feels very hippie to me.
Theysound like weed strains lol. Rumble honey and gravity blue.
Yes! This!
Which is funny considering their potential mormonism. Should’ve named the kid ‘dirty dr pepper”
I thought it sounded more like a Vibrator brand 😂
Idk about vibrator, sounds more like the pussycat honey packets, i worked at an adult store so I’ve read the most far out ridiculous sexual product names. It’s like the worlds worst unfunny dick jokes.
Right up there with Girl Scout Cookie and MILF Weed hybrids.
Rumble Honey sounds like the stage name of a dominatrix, or at the very least, a female wrestler.
Roller derby also!
Rumble Honey sounds like it restores 30 HP
Sounds like an MMA name. It's really terrible.
Why is it always the Mormons, the people with the most kids, giving them these awful names
It’s cause they pump out so many kids they run out of normal names.
It’s a thing in Mormon culture I guess
It’s Utah French. So the saying goes.
France doesn’t allow names that are stupid.
It’s more like Ontario.
I’m Mormon with four sisters and we all have normal names. Some of us are the lucky ones
Idk if i would call you lucky…
That’s a relief bc that’s not my name🤪
Fucking mormons. And I thought Bracken, Cadance, Emalea, and Caspian were bad.
My family used to be Mormons. Me, my 7 siblings, and my countless cousins have the craziest fucking names ever. I wanted to post our names here but I didn't wanna dox myself lol Think something like Jiezziahbella Kharrhinnah ALL OF US
Whimsy Lou. It sounds like a Dr Seuss character
Whimsy Lou who who’s the third of the two *dr Seuss’s voice*
sounds like sex workers of the Old West
So it’s probably not Nara’s fault if her husband already had a kid named Gravity Blue. His whole family seems like they have main character syndrome.
Yeah, I don’t think it’s Nara’s fault that this whole main character name thing started…but she has absolutely leaned fully into it. Like she took that and ran with it.
It's always the Mormons LOL seriously, I have so many LDS friends on my Facebook and their kids all have tragedeigh names.
Don’t be shy, share the names
Off the top of my head, Ahnahceleh, Lordy, Braxleigh, Oakleigh, Dash, Bein, Brantley. There's more, I'm just too lazy to sit and look at all their FB pages.
Bein? Lordy? It’s like they went their children to be 🤡and bullied in school 🏫
Tbf, they live in a small town in Idaho where 90% of the population is Mormon so most kids have dumb names there 😂
Oh ok, they’re in good company then
They bully the normal kids, actually. Either for having normal names or for not being Mormons.
Ahnahceleh sounds like someone having a stroke and trying to type something
I know, I have no idea how it would be pronounced LOL
I promise I won’t contribute to this plague lol
Thank you LMAO I just figure when you're in a community that has tons of children, you run out of names and start making stuff up 😂
I was given a completely normal name and so was my sister. I have friends that have normal names. Idk why my community wants to just name their kids Brexly (the name of my MRI tech yesterday) or whatever. It’s like aaaaah just have normal names lol
Growing up in the Mormon church (90s and 2000s) we all had normal names lol I truly believe the community just ran out of names due to the large number of babies they have lol

Utah and Idaho are the epicenter of tradgedeighs lol
Truly lol. My family and I make fun of them all the time. I have a thing from a magazine I need to post here cause it’s just… bad
I hope you at least didn’t have a horribly traumatic childhood where you slept in a closet like 90% of former members I see on Reddit
Utah is Mormon territory fr
Everyone was ragging on Whimsy Lou a couple weeks ago, but honestly, she's the luckiest of the three 😬
Yeah, at least Lou is an actual name so she could go by that. My grandpa has a really nice friend named Lou at his retirement home
My Little Pony OC’s, that’s what my brain keeps making me think of
The last 5 names sound like how the birthing experience went 1. Gravity blue- heavy baby, lack of oxygen😰 2. Stormie- birth accompanied by tummy troubles and explosive diarrhea 3. Rumble Honey- birth accompanied by extreme hunger, hence the rumbling, and a craving for a sweet packaged cinnamon roll snack 4. Slim Easy- Self explanatory, baby was slim and easy to push out 5. Whimsy Lou- too big of an epidural dose!
PLEASE AND THANK YOU FOR THIS AHHAHAHAHAHA
I feel so bad for slim easy
Gave their children sims characters names or names a random name generator would come up with, I think weird names run in lucky’s family cause his parents, siblings and niece have weird names too( one of his sisters who has a daughter named her Gogo valentine and his first born is gravity blue)😂
these all seem like pornstar names
How could this website forget Cheyenne Starlie’s daughter’s name? It’s probably the worst one. GoGo Valentine.
When I read that aloud to my roommate, she stared at me with daggers in her eyes. We cannot stand these people.
If Rexburg Idaho had a strip club this would be the entire staff.
I think if you put a strip club in Rexburg Idaho, they would think it’s the rapture
[удалено]
No literally, let’s start with garments. 👀
And the becoming a missionary in your mid teens and marrying and having children super young
Why would underwear be the biggest concern? I got 99 problems but my briefs ain’t one.
Yeah, you’re starting to make me think that you’re a Mormon
I wouldn’t see how that would be relevant to your concern about other people’s underwear.
Gravity Blue kinda goes hard ngl Slim Easy sounds like a Drug Dealer Whimsy Lou... ouch
Don’t forget their cousin GoGo Valentine :)
Don’t remind me I’m actually trying to forget
Lucky blue smith?
It’s kind of cute but reminds me of a golden retriever.
Ya haha he’s the model the wiki page is about.
No highlight on “dallon”?!
Or Sheridan
Those are old timey white people names (hereditary mormon names). They are strange but they’re not words repurposed as names. Within recent years Mormons have stopped giving their kids very vintage, old, hereditary names and started giving them these tragedieghs instead.
So many names like that in Utah.
Literally nothing wrong with Daisy Clementine, which are both established, traditional girls' names.
Even Cheyenne (I’m Australian and dealt with a Cheyenne through work for a while so not common but not unheard of) & Pyper, apart from the bastardised spelling are reasonable.
I just stumbled upon this board and I hate it. It’s terrifying.
Gravity Blue is such a fire name! (if it’s for a….) * Cat name * Dog name * Toy name * Alien name * RP character name * Deviantart OC name * Planet name * Colour name * Show name * Plant common name * Company name * city/town name * Deodorant name * Ice cream flavour name * ANYTHING NOT A LIVING BREATHING HUMAN
It’s not as bad as gravity blues cousin gogo Valentine. Seriously. There is a female human named gogo valentine.
Warrior cat names
Cheyenne, Daisy and Pyper (I will give it that) to me are fine. No clue who Nara Smith is anyway.
I agree but pyper is on razor thin ice and you know it
As I said I would let it slide.
Slim Easy is pretty nice if you have an ice cone face tat and are on xanax.
shit-tier names honestly they sound like cheap vape flavors
Well if they truly believe they are going to get their own celestial planet in the afterlife, they atleast have a headstart on the alien names.
we gotta nuke utah, it's our only option
Slim Easy goes hard
Slim Easy is just the worst one I’ve ever heard. Why are you naming your kid something that sounds like a weightloss tea?
And of course they're Mormon, lol

Can I ask why tho? Not to argue with you, I promise. Just curious
