So it seems over the last few years that there has been an increasing trend to give newborn children stupid fked up names that will ruin their lives.

I think it started with Chris Martin's kid being called Apple.

Beyonce and Jay Z have just called theirs Blue Ivy.

this is probably the absolute worst I've ever seen, spotted by member of another forum on Facebook...



Yea, Sambuca fking Levi. Words fail me.

Whats the worst you've heard/seen? It's just so utterly retarded.

Conan's an old name though, it's been around a lot longer than the movies.#

There is a nice irony in people calling their kids "Mercedes" after the car, though.

Mercedes was named after a girl, I feel I have to point out.

You don't really do irony, then?

We now have an 'Olly' in the family rolleyes not 'Oliver' shortened, just Olly. OK when he's a baby/child but wrong when he's a middle aged man. Unless he chooses a career as a clown or pop singer

The stupid misspelling of names is worse I think.

For example: Lay-Nee.

Not really, that's just part of a rock/pop/film star tradition:

Zowie Bowie
Dweezil, Moon Unit & Diva Thin Muffin Zappa
Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches and Pixie Geldof
Prince, Paris and Blanket Jackson
Kal-El Cage
Pilot Inspektor Lee (Jason Lee - My Name is Earl)
Kyd Duchovny
Sage Moonblood Stallone

etc, etc.

There's someone I know who has called their child 'Janey'. Not a particularly stupid name, but they pronounce it 'Juhn-ay'.

It says 'jane-ie' to me. Has anyone else heard of it being pronounced that way or are they just being 'alternative'?

I quite like that one, it does raise questions about the parents lifestyle though hehe

I think it's ok to give your pets silly names but not kids, I want a dog and already have a name lined up for him, Syndrome.
