ok so after a suggestion ...yes Rici your fault....and after Wozza having a tanty over his name.....I thought we could do a most or oddest name you know......can be your own name...a family name...or just one you have heard...

here's my two.....Tryphena....my great great grandmother's name...and Archelaus...a family name that goes down 10 generations in my family....ooooooooooooooooo

I went to school with a girl named Julie Terry. She went on to be a school teacher and the school kids had to call her Miss Terry (mystery).

Well, I don't like many oldfashioned German names like Klothilde and names such as Kevin, Chantal, Jaqueline because they are being "abused" by special german people...

And I don't like Peaches (Bob Geldof's daughter, her second name is also bad: Honeyblossom) as a name either

I think a lot of those celebrity kids names are wayy over the top.


For example, I don't like
Fifi Trixibelle, Pixie Frou-Frou (the other two daughters of Bob Geldof)
Zowie Bowie
Emma Tiger Schweiger
Cosma Shiva Hagen


don't know if this is a true story but there was this little boy named Shithead ...pronouced Sha-theed

If I'm lying I'm dying

Oh God, how can the parents do that to him?!!


Also, wasn't there a little girl whose parents permanently let change her name to GoldenPalace.com for money?? :eek:

Not really an odd name but something silly. When picking names for my oldest daughter...my mom suggested Olivia as her middle name. With her first name being Shanna and her last name beginning with a B...I said I could call her my lil' SOB for short.


But in thinking about it...wouldn't that be me insulting myself??? :p
