Weird Baby Names

Thursday October 2, 2003
Longstanding urban legends about newborn babies being saddled with bizarre names based on product brands ("Orange Jell-O" and the like) have given way to the disconcerting reality that more and more American children are actually growing up with first names like "Celica," "Xerox," "Timberland," and "Espn."  Feel their painDiscuss.

I LOVE BEAUTIFUL NAME, it basically reminds me of the trashcan i was born in back in the old day. Swinburne reminds me of a sandwich i also had the other day. It was majorly satisfying. I’d have to recomend it to everybody.

I am a real target for bullys, they all hate me.
Everybody in my family rips out my hair everyday they see me, that is why i am totally&COMPLETELY bald.
Even on my arms.
I am a loser.
But atleast my name is cool.

Love-The hairless Swinburne.

June 11, 2007 at 8:53 am
(34) katie dee says:

I have one of the commonest names around but I don’t let that pigeon hole me as an “un-unique” person.
One of the good things about having a name that isn’t unusual is that people remember me for my personality, not as that chick with the weird name.
I also think that some of the names parents give their children now will date something chronic. My name is classic (I know; it was my great-grandmothers) so won’t go out of style.

July 7, 2007 at 10:57 pm
(55) Brett says:

A name is only wrong if it just doesn’t sound right – and doesn’t fit with the last name. Alternative spelling for a common name is my sore point. These kids have to correct people all the time. It is parents trying to be different without the courage to do it properly.
My children are Ripley A. Lien (look carefully at the 2 middle names – yes it comes from a movie – Ripley is Old English meaning, the shouter’s meadow & Lien is Chinese for lotus blossom). The other is Kaliska P. Dyami (North American Indian names – Coyote chasing deer & eagle soaring – the P stands for predator).
It did cause me grief at the time and some still dis me about the names.

(57) Audrey says:

Although my name is not completely ORIGINAL, it’s always been pretty uncommon and I’ve liked not being one of the hundreds of Jennifer’s or Michelle’s. I’ve only ever met 4 other Audrey’s in my life and we all spell it differently, so that makes it FEEL original.

July 16, 2007 at 9:06 pm
(58) Izzy says:

I like my name Izzy, but everybody thinks it is from Isador or they call me Izzy. But it really stands for Isabella. My name is also Mariam, but people think its Murium or mary ann and its annoying. Mariam is Farsi (Iranian) for a kind of flower. So there it is a flower. Isabella is Italian of course. Izzy is my nickname for Isabella. People always spell it Izze or Izy or Izzi or Izzie. I’m sick of it. I’m not even going to get started with my last name.

love- Mariam Isabella (last name not showing)

July 17, 2007 at 5:04 am

August 28, 2007 at 6:38 pm
(74) Billie says:

It dont matter if you have an unussual first name, as you cant help what ya last name is, and their are some strange ones out there. People will always find some way of picking on your name (even common ones) or something about the way you look, being young is very scaring no matter what your name is. But if ya ever not happy with it, you can always change it by depol, at Births, Deaths and Marriages. I love the unussual names myself, that are very rare to find

(76) Emily says:

Hello PPLs y on earth would u call ur child Apple it is just 2 bizzare i think people need to understand that it’s not the parents who have 2 go 2 skewl it’s thier kids and you wouldn’t want your son or daughter to get bullied would you because of what you named them i think before you name your children think of the long term effects of that name it might sound all good to you and ppl may critisize what i’m saying because i hav a normal name but PLZ THINK OF YOUR CHILD 1ST having a normal name is not bad at all i think it’s better then being called Apple or named after a fruit or some bizzare kitchen applience i think naming your child after such a thing can or could be classed as child abuse and you maybe thinking who wrote this n even though i’m 15 i have been bullied and no how harsh kids can get

I hate it when people spell or pronounce my name wrong!
I always correct them.

My name really goes well with my full name.

Alysa Rose Mackay Weir

Mackay – MA-CKI
Weir – WE-ER

I enjoy being unique but I think its RIDICULOUS calling your child “Apple” .. I mean .. what sort of name is that ?!
Think about the child before their name.

They might get bullied at school.
Use unique names [even if your family thinks its silly!] go with your instinct!

Much Love =]]

(85) Yingna says:

Mine’s clearly a Chinese name (I’m chinese) as it’s unusual but isn’t really nice sounding. I used to hate telling people what my name was but now I’ve grown to like it as it’s unique and all. Kinda sucks though how it doesn’t roll off the tongue that easily but better than those with X’s and Z’s etc

October 17, 2007 at 8:49 am

Pronounced

I love my name because its not to weird but still uncommon! Names i like are sky and emily for girls and bradley and daniel for boys

October 24, 2007 at 3:42 pm
(89) Brenna says:

Mine’s not THAT unusual, but has been mispronounced approximately 10 times a day since I was in elementary school. Brenda, Brianna, Breena, etc. It’s really no big deal. I don’t bother to correct people unless I’m going to be around them a lot. Why? Because WHO CARES if some total stranger gets my name wrong? I’m never going to see them again anyway! Correcting strangers potentially embarasses them and and takes up my time…pointless. They don’t mean any harm, anyway. I say get over it.

People with weird first names are less likely to get jobs… plus it would suck for an adult to have to introduce themselves, and say “Hi, I’m pilot.”

Unusal middle names are cool though. Seven, Soccer, Bridge, Either, Rocket

May 31, 2008 at 4:12 am

I want my daughters to have unisex names. The first being Jackson and if I have another daughter Joston. It is tradition in my family to name your son after his father and I will but after that my choices are Preston, Romero,and Malachi. I think all the names I have selected/like are different but will not cause my children strife (They will be able to get a JOB). By the way I love my name Danetta (DA-NET-TA)it is often pronounced wrong I simply correct the person with a smile.

(151) Kara Jo says:

Although I hated the name Kara growning up, I have since come to cherish my name. It has so many meanings. . . beloved, friend, pure, precious gem, and sweet melody. I do run into other Kara’s from time to time but have never met another Kara Jo. I now love my name!

After reading some of the comments left here, I have to give one piece of advice. For goodness sake, use your brain and THINK!!! Don’t just give a child a name because it’s so cute for a baby. This child will have to live with their name all their life. Just becuase it’s cute or funny now doesn’t mean that name will help them as they become adults. Use some common sense PLEASE!!!

(154) Meaghan Ambrose Claire says:

i know my first name is pretty common, but it is not the most common spelling of the name. so it gives me my own uniqueness. And then, i LOVE my middle name (ambrose claire). It reminds me of an old formal english name, very classy and polite. and it makes my name very long counting my OTHER middle name(Rosana, which we dont include anymore, becasue my grandma died and it was her anme. out of respect or something)and my last name. but i most love that my name doesnt describe me at all. so im kinda of like a surpise :)

im gunna name my kids:

Minta pandora nyx

(158) Mairaed says:

My name is mairaed (muh-ray-d)and it is ALWAYS completely killed whenever anyone tries to pronounce it. I love my name, its pretty, gaelic, and have yet to meet another Mairaed. It’s also fun when a substitute gets to my name on the list and just stops and looks up pained. It probably no help that my last name is Gillooly (gill-ooh-lee). Having a unique name is so much fun and a refreshing difference to the ever so common “Hayley…or Nick”and six people turn and say what. Some day I want to name my girl Stephony (pronounced like stephanie) or Aiden for a boy.

Unique names rule!!!!

(161) Megan says:

Before I begin I think I should tell you a bit about my family. It is probably easiest to just give you the family tree, so here it is:

Mother’s Side

Grandfather: Jozef Varhegi
Grandmother: Hildegard Marie Petzke
Uncles: Ralph Hans Varhegi, Sebastian Joseph Varhegi (Twins)
Aunt: Rosalind Mitzi Marie Varhegi (My Mother’s Twin)
Mother: Gisela (Guh-zel-a) Marie Varhegi
Father: Frank Dyck (simple huh?)
Sister: Katherine Marie Dyck
Children: Domick Fidello Warden (boy, six) (Dom-ick)
Sharra Marie Warden (girl, four) twin (Share-a)
Cheyenne Marie Warden (girl, four) twin (Shy-ann)
Merelan Felena Warden (girl, one) triplet (Meer-i-lan)
Merika Mavi Warden (girl, one) triplet (Meer-i-ka)
Mirrim Talina Warden (girl, one) triplet (Meer-im)
Me: Megan (May-G-en) Elizabeth Dyck
Children: Aliaena Elizabeth Hadley (girl, five) twin (Al-ee-ai-na)
Alemi Jaxom Hadley (boy, five) twin (A-lem-ee)
Bedella Deelan Hadley (girl, three) triplet (Be-del-a)
Brekke Jora Hadley (girl, three) triplet (Brek)
Briala Rannelly Hadley (girl, three) triplet (Bree-ala)
Due date: Halloween:

~* I’m only 26 *~
My sister is three years older than me.

My grandmother has two grandchildren, me and my sister the only ones who are not born on the same day, eleven great-grandchildren, soon to be fifteen. another strange point is that all of the multiples in my family are identical, weird by itself. i’m not even going to begin to tell you my father’s side because there are more multiples there and even more of them, every one of my cousins has a twin or two or three, or in the largest case, five, always with no fertility drugs.

I think my family is cursed to have multiples.

My baby belly is friggen huge right now well theres four little buggers in there they take up a lot of room. :D

i love unique names for girls, but i just don’t think they sound as good on boys. why worry about your kids being picked on about their name? every child will be picked on for some reason, and when they grow up people will probably love their name. i LOVE Yaelle, Lyvia, and Elloree for girls.

my mum chose the name when she was just 14, Hannah-because she liked the name, and Frances-after my grandmother who died when my mum was only 2weeks old.

i chose the name cecilia.

i used to hate my name but now i love it:)

apparently the name Hannah wasn’t very fashionable when i was born (’89) but i think its lovely

(184) Raissa Alexandrovna says:

My name is Raissa (Ray-ee-sa)
in Arabic it means female leader. In Russian it means queen.
Alexandrovna is Russian for “daughter of alexander”

my last names are fun too.

It’s fun having unique names because everyone knows who you are, and the nick names you get are really cool. People call me sonrisa some times (means smile) others risa (laugh) or raiz (root). Its interesting hearing different pronounciations of it too.

:)

My little brother is named andrew but they were going to call him Sullivan.

My sister’s name is
Milena Alexandrovna Eva

My name’s pronunced “DEE DREE” ad I absolutely love it!
I wasn’t to fond of it growing up, because no one would/ could ever pronounce it properly.
I’ve only met 1 other Deidre in my entire 25 years on this earth. :)

(204) Evelyn Lorna says:

My name is Evelyn and my middle name is Lorna. I really like it and also my nickname Evie. Everyone at school always assumes i am evangeline. My mum wanted to call me Eefa ( i don’t know if that is how you spell it) but dad thought it was too unusual.

I think you have to be careful about choosing unique first names so as not to embarrass your child.

Evie

January 18, 2009 at 9:36 pm
(205) Diamond says:

It annoys me when people say I have a stripper name, but I have to ignore that, even though I like The Player’s Club…

I hate when people name their kids all kinds of crazy crap. I mean, really: imagine the kid fifty years from now. You don’t want her in the old folks’ home, and the nurse says, “La’Queesha Jones, are you ready for your insulin?” Really.

I love names that end in “-elle” or “-que”, you know, French things. I love unique names; my favorite thus far is Cheilanthes, which I pronounce “ky-LAN”. Pretty, no?

January 20, 2009 at 11:01 pm
(206) Chloe says:

I think that it’s all nice and cute when you name a kid something complete ‘unusual’ like Pilot-Inspektor, Wednesday or Audio Science, but think about when they go to school, or try and get a job??
“My name is Pilot Inspektor, what’s yours?”
It’s a recipe for bullying, and low self-esteem.
I like my name, but prefer my middle name: Eleanor.
I’d probably name my kids:
Boy: Jake, Justin or Leigh
Girl: Cate-Lynn, Addison or Leisel

January 21, 2009 at 8:20 am
(207) Jess says:

My Name is Jessica Anne, as a kid i never really liked it but as i got older ive grown to like it. i also think Anne as a middle name flows really well. But everyone calls me Jess.

The GIRL names I like are:
Kayla, Ashlee, Aimee, Hayley, Alyssa, Chelsea, Bianca, Kiara, Ashlyn, Natasha and Keisha.

The BOY names I like are:Nathan, Declan, lachlan, Cooper, Lucas, Brody, Mason, Chase and Jaiden.

What do you think?

I love my name but when i shorten it up it doesnt get spelled right. So, when i shorten it i have to spell it differently. It goes from Gina to Gena.

My husband Michael hates it because her sisters have regular names like Francine and Stephanie. Michael wanted the name Michael to end with him because there are so many Michaels in his family. So we named our son Jager-Miguel. Pronounced Yager like the drink.

(235) ArJayKay says:

Some of these names are really out there! I have a sister named Branna, a niece named Annalise and a niece named Karris. My grandmothers names were Doshia and Anna Mae. Mom, Dorlis Izora. Aunts…Bernadine Francis, Treva Marjorie, Artie Lou.
I wanted to name my daughter Jordan Taylor but my husband objected. So I chose Taylor and he chose Emily. Now she is 12 and hates her name, (I think she would rather her name was Roxas.) Some of you folks coming up with these odd names need to think how your child will feel. Celebrities can get away with it but real down to earth kids get made fun of. Just a thought….

March 1, 2009 at 9:05 am
(236) Azalee Nyssa says:

My name is Azalee Nyssa, and it has been shortened to Zali (Zar-lee)… and i love it… i have always loved my unique name… My husband also has an unusual name – Jackson Jarius (known by most as JJ) and in turn we named our 4 kids uniquely also…

They are:

(Name) (pronounciation) (age) (nickname)
Daughters –

Kairlee Sheigh : (CARE-LEE CHAY) (15) (Kair)
Rosalind Carys : (ROSE-A-LYN KE-RISS)(12) (Rosie)
Arabella Havily : (AH-RAH-BELLA HAVE-ILL-EE)(4) (Bellz)

Son –

Baylan Kade : (BAY-LAN KAY-D)(8) (BK… or Bayza)

All of them like their names, or thats what they have told me… they just wish i had of given their middle names first, as they are all shorter to spell. HAHA… but im sure the trend will continue.. they all seem to be content with the difference, and they love not being confused with other kids… as no one in their schools have their names.

They also dont mind because like most kids, they get nicknames, and they are relatively normal (i.e. rosie, BK, bella) so even though their names are very unique and unusual they still feel normal most of the time.

Hope that helps others :) and you dont think me as the strangest mother ever… :)

Name them something normal, like “Pinky” or “The Brain” or “Backseat” (’it’s where she was conceived!’) or “Tom Cruise” or something. Geez. Apple. Hmph. I’m with the guy that said “Rotator Cuff”

My favorites : Girl – Xenica, Boy – Zyon. Hope this helps.

(252) Dury says:

Sorry for posting again!! I reckon Xenica’s middle name should be Cynthanie and Zyon’s middle name Lexus (yes, that’s right, the name of the car). Xenica Cynthanie . . . . . . Zyon Lexus. They both have a good sound to them. By The Way, I didn’t want any other guy to be called Dury – I just wanted that name to be exclusively MINE. So DAMN YOU Dury Loveridge!! (you’ll find him on the net. He’s some sort of cello player). Oh well, I can’t have it all, I guess. This is a COOL site!!

(262) Nicole says:

I don’t like my name. It just sounds weird when I say it! Or when other people say it! Some guy called me Cole once! COLE! I’m a girl! Cole isn’t a girl name is it!? That’s why I love unusual names, like Clouda or Ellamina! Cute!

(267) Dury says:

Alliesta (Comment#261) Tinkie-Winkie may sound cute for a wee little baby (either gender, as you said), but what will she/he think of it as a grown-up? Of course she/he can always change their name by deed poll if they want. Olivia . . . . . . oops, sorry, I mean Liv (Comment#263), my older sister’s name was Nora. She was my favorite sister of all my sisters. She suffered a major stroke in 2004 (September) and died in hospital a few days later on Sept.14. God Bless her.

April 25, 2009 at 7:20 am
(268) Natasha says:

I quite like my name but I know too many people with the same name. When I was born, though, my mum called me Dominique while I was in the hospital but my dad hated it. I actually like that name but it would be wierd to have it now because I know someone called Dominic.

Giligan for a girl???

May 2, 2009 at 11:09 pm
(276) Tiana says:

My name, some think is pretty unique, but after hearing so many other variations of it (ie. Brianna, Tatianna,… etc), I don’t believe so. My daughters name is on the other hand is not one that you hear regularly. Her name is Xaleya (zah-LEE-ya). We want our next little girl to either be Olivia Bell, named after both grandmothers, or Yanna which means “he answers”. Are boy names are Everet Lemuel, again after grandparents, Malachi, (which I am now steering away from since it’s become so popular), or Zamir.

May 3, 2009 at 2:11 am
(277) Dury says:

Wilfred (Comment 274), I reckon some of these names are COOL!! Some of them ULTRA-COOL!! Oh, sure, you can complain and diss everyone else on this thread, saying that these are “stupid names” but at least we’re TRYING, and that, to me, is the main thing. I like tryers – they impress me more than the achievers, actually. Tiana (comment 276), Xaleya is an AWESOME name for a girl!! The other female X-names I like are Xaviera, Xenica, and Xylene.

May 4, 2009 at 5:18 am
(278) Pagan says:

I hate my name,its horrible

May 4, 2009 at 6:14 am
(279) Wilfred Windry says:

Dury (comment 277) I was talking about Gilligan. Her brothers have stupid names. what kind of names are Fuyosa, Soda, Seven and Golbez.

May 5, 2009 at 3:43 am
(280) Dury says:

Wilfred (Comment 279), my apologies!! I guess I got on the defensive too soon!! Once again, a thousand apologies. Mind you, love ‘em or hate ‘em, Giligan’s family sure have unique names. Pagan (Comment 278), you have GOOD TASTE in names!! Your own name is a weird one though. I’ve never come across that name before.

May 5, 2009 at 9:01 pm
(281) Moana says:

Unique names are always best, My favourites for a girl are Zacouria or Zeharhn.

May 6, 2009 at 10:14 am
(282) Wilfred Windry says:

My apologies Dury, I didn’t realize you were just trying to help everyone else out. Sometimes i think my name is strange too, my parents couldn’t decide whether to call me William or Fred, so they came up with Wilfred! Sorry Gilligan if I offended you in any way.

May 7, 2009 at 12:25 pm
(283) Shannon says:

The comments proves to met that a bunch of teenagers are birthing babies. I’m all for interesting, unique, REAL names from other countries, but naming your kid after the latest occult movie or game is immature and not far-sighted. Give your kids a chance in life! Stop naming kids verbs and adjectives. What – are you mad you’re pregnant? :)

May 10, 2009 at 9:59 am
(284) Giligan says:

Wilfred Windry you have offended me. I have never been so insulted in my life, my name is beautiful and i thank everyone for standing up for me! Wilfred your a fish hog!

May 10, 2009 at 10:06 am
(285) Wilfred Windry says:

Giligan THAT IS A SENSITIVE TOPIC SINCE MY MUM WAS BRUTALLY MAULED BY A FISH HOG WHEN SHE WAS 7 AND I WAS ONLY 1 WHEN IT HAPPENED!!She was mauled by a fish hog called Waylon which i thought was unusual. :)

May 13, 2009 at 9:57 am
(286) Waylon says:

Wilfred im sorry to hear about your mum but i think my name is very special and unique comment (277) Xayleya is an awesome name for a girl i also like the name Willow xx

(290) Christiana says:

I’ve never met anyone with my name before, although there are probably others out there… I dislike when people call me Christine. My daughter’s name is Adelynn (said add-a-lynn) and we named our boy Christopher. Not unique, but I haven’t met a Christopher in a really long time and now they’re all spelled stupidly like kristofer or something retarded.

May 31, 2009 at 5:39 pm
(291) shaelynn says:

heeey,my name is shaelynn (Shay-linn)I dont know anyone with the same name as me other than the skater shae-lynn bourne but its kinda diffrents yet. I like my name its diffrent from anybody else and i makes me feel special because no one else i know has the same name. It’s organated from ireland and its meaning is «desendant of the fortunates» I think i have a beutiful and rare name and i am proud of it,

June 1, 2009 at 3:36 am
(293) Stephanie Leanne says:

I’ve always hated my name when growing up, and my mum always said Stephanie instead of Steph. As I got older though, I kinda like how my name sounds (Stephanie Leanne). And my surname makes works well with it.

My middle name is also my aunty’s name and she always got called Loo. So now, my family “pet-name” is Stephy-Loo. My friends at school just call me Stephy though.

I love unique names although some that celebs come up with really are stupid! LOL!

Joaquin (kinda old, but cool)
Donal
Dallas
Tarquin
Caylus

June 3, 2009 at 3:28 pm
(295) Riley says:

My name is somewhat common, but I love older names, like names from greek myths. I have 2 daughters, Ariadne and Persephone, and a son on the way, who we’re naming Icarus. But this is a great site!

June 10, 2009 at 4:26 am
(299) Dury says:

Mystique (Comment 249), Christiana (Comment 290), and Shaelynn (Comment 291), are FAN-WHIPPING-TASTIC names for girls!!! Other ultra-cool girls names I like are Sapphyra, Centany, Shekinah, Catronia, and Ferreny. And I agree with Shaelynn when she says that having a unique name makes you feel special. It’s a break away from all the Jameses, Johns, Annes, Marys, and Lisas out there (PLEASE, no more LISAS!!). Oh yeah, unique names are ACE!!

June 13, 2009 at 6:10 am

My first name is ‘Tarn’. I’ve never met anyone with my name…My parents were hippies, my name means ‘glacial lake’

June 18, 2009 at 1:22 pm
(305) Jeannie says:

I love names you do not hear very often. I named my son Gareth (as in Sir Gareth, Knight of the Round Table from the book The Once and Future King). I named my daughter Cheyenne, and once I did, it seemed that everyone and their dog named their daughters Cheyenne as well. If I were to ever have another daughter I like: Rhianna,Trinity, Kyleigha, and Keelie

June 18, 2009 at 5:57 pm
(306) K-Marie says:

If I ever have a daughter, I’ll more than likely name her Alia. I wanted to somehow come up with a name that involved the most influential people in my life. So, I took the last letters out of my mom’s name (donnA), my grandmother’s name (laurraL), then my two aunt’s names (lorI & lavondA). I assume it would be pronounced A-LEE-UH. I’m still working on the middle name….

If I were to have a boy, I was thinking about Kaygreg. That was created using my mom’s middle name, Kay, and my dad’s middle name, Greg. As for the middle name, I’ll probably go with an old-fashioned name.

June 18, 2009 at 11:59 pm
(307) Alessandra says:

My name is Alessandra. Its different, and sometimes I wish I had a different name. But in the end, I love it no matter what :)

i’m 15 and i love my name(:

i’m actually pregnant and i’m having a girl.. i can’t wait!

i’m planning to call her SAOIRSE-KEIKI.

saoirse is pronounced [SEER-sha] and it means freedom in dutch or roman?

and keiki is pronounced [KAY-key] and it means child in hawaiian.

so her name means freedom child(:

pretty, HUH?
