Ridiculous Names


TerriblePizza

Recommended Posts

reminds me of the story about the girl named Le-a (pronounced Ledasha)

My cousin just named his newborn daughter Harper Joseph, still not sure what to think of it

Harper is a big name in my family. My uncle, all his brothers and his sons are all H's.

Harlan Hank Hamilton Hunter Hayden and then Harlans sons are Harper and Henry

My friends have what some people like to call "rich names". Have a best friend named Palmer who has 2 younger brothers. One is named Harding and one is named Young. Yeah, his name is Young....or joven as I like to call him.

I have lots of friends with double names, Mary Elizabeth, Mary Mitchell, Jane Andrews, the list goes on.

Most of these are family names, just like mine. No one ever tells me my name is weird, just that it is unique and they think it is pretty.

On another note, this thread reminds me of this video:

Fri'Chickenisha LOLZ :lol:

Yep, Red, Blue & Green are all boys.

It's pretty rediculous, they're getting ready to have another kid, I wonder what they'll name that one. Crayola, Magenta, Cyan, Gray, Brown...

tell them that I suggest Wic or Stamp

I know a guy that has 5 kids & they're names are all colors except for one. He has Red, Blue, Violet, Green and Dixie Lee.

Is he from WVA? My boss is from there and says everyone has Lee somewhere in their names.

Oddly enough, that's my brother's name.

Strangely...I really didn't see a lot of the nutty names until late 80s/90s.

Buddy right down road was names John. Couple of Charles(s). Lawrence. Emily. Barbara.

Did the letter Q sponsor an NAACP event in the 90s? /joke

It probably stems from the fact that a lot of southern raised African Americans simply took on the names of the slave owners and it kept. After a while, people wanted to revert back to their stolen heritage and adjusted accordingly. I don't blame them. I do blame people for not properly "researching" and just coming up with a name that's absurd.

Growing up, I thought the kids on my street had strange names. There was a Dee Dee, Shonnie, Lydia, Gabriel and a few others I cant remember right now. My name is Glenda, I always thought that was strange when I was a kid because I never met anyone else named Glenda until I became an adult.
