Whether it’s an Apple or Moses scenario, we know you can’t always account for taste.
So when the good people of Reddit were asked to nominate the worst baby names they’d come across, and a reason for their distaste… well they got a creative list.
Some seem alright… until you hear the reason…
Hellzel
“According to her, her mother liked Hazel but her dad was a biker and loved hells angels, so they came up with this mess.”
Ermengarde
“The parents were hippies, but still wanted to include the mother’s grandmother’s name.”
Rage
“Some years ago, I ran in to an ex boyfriend at the gas station with his new girlfriend, her little boy in the back seat. His name was Rage.”
I’munique
“I work at a bank in North Florida and have been keeping a list of names I come across. My favorite so far is definitely “I’munique.” It was on her ID and everything.”
Kaizyle
“Mom liked the name Paisley, but it was too “normal” I guess so she went with that disaster.”
Abstinence
“I know a little girl named Abstinence. I predict she will be pregnant by 16”
Britney Shakira Beyonce
“And they would call her by the full name every time.”
Revlon
“Yes, like the cosmetics company. This was a boy.”
Mazen
“My former step sister named her kid “Mazen” because it was ‘mazen when he was born.”
Gennah Tyles
“There is a girl in my school named Gennah Tyles. With a G. It’s like her parents wanted to name her genitals.”
Romulus and Remus
“At my high school there were twins; Romulus and Remus. They were not of Italian extraction.”
Anna….
“I don’t know what the Bonanna family were thinking, but I swear this is true.”
Gabriel and Grabiel
“Two 11 year-old twins named Gabriel and Grabiel. I cannot make this up.”
Brixx and Ryot
“I’m a teacher at an early education center. My favorites are Rex and the brothers Brixx and Ryot.”
