Weirdest names for children.

Posted by: Steve J on 02 June 2013

My niece recently gave birth to a beautiful baby daughter. I was sent a lovely photo of the baby along with her name...... Wren Karelyn! What is it with with new parents today? They seem to want to outdo each other with the weirdest names for their kids. 

 

Any other experiences?

How about Zowie Bowie. He changed his name later. I wonder why?

I believe this company may still be in existence. At the Chelsea Flower Show there was a Topiary garden built by a company of this name. Very appropriate.

Watching Alan Titchmarch trying to hold it together when talking about the forefathers of topiary was mildly amusing....you could see what he was thinking whilst trying not to corpse. G

My wife and I thought it would be a good idea to postpone finally naming our children until they'd developed their individual characters so the names we selected would be more appropriate to them as individuals. I tried to explain this to my son, Satan's Spawn.

What about when the first and last name combine to make something like these: Mike roch, Eric Shaun, mike hunt, Peter file, Wayne king etc. My brother was in the same class as a kid called mike hunt poor kid didn't stand a chance.

Never ceases to amaze my what I hear some children called.

One of my neighbours is called Sweet Candy and jolly pretty she is to. Her sister is a total babe and I mean she is a babe on an international scale. Her name is Nora.

No stockings of any kind (sadly). I met a Gladys here too and a 'Lovely' and a 'Princess'.
