That first syllable means something you wouldn’t want to name a little girl, but it’s British slang. Then again, the internet makes it a small world, so she’s definitely getting bullied! 😬
lol I had so many NICU nurses thank me for giving my triplets normal names spelled normal ways 😂 my other three got normal names too. I swear people are just eating and then barfing up scrabble tiles and calling it a name.
My twins (and the singleton) have names that are common but also peaked in popularity 80ish years ago. When people ask me why I just gesture vaguely at my own name.
My kids names are normal but not heard often. I tried to spell them so their teachers would say then correctly and keep them simple so they could easily spell their own name.
Yeah lol it's true. I'm a teacher, and I make those kids say their own name 😂 if I can't read it off my roster, I am making you say it first 😂 then I will say it
I was 21 and on an international vacation when I finally found my name on a keychain. 20 years later it's on keychains all around the US. Keychains go by trends, not always what is a good name.
I think Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch which is a town in Wales can be found on keychains, so maybe not the best rule of thumb.
I was expecting: “Can I help you?” “Yes this is nurse Tina in room 3. Can you please set us up for a psych evaluation? Yeah she’s not going home today after all.”
As someone with a unique name... Please for the love of heck just name your kid something with the most logical spelling 😭 The amount of times my name has been said pronounced wrong, I've just started answering to any name that starts with a "Kah" sound and giving the name Wiccan for food orders
Well, depending on the unique name. Mine is Amalie but that's the American/ English way of spelling it. I'm not 100% sure how it's spelt in German because that where the name comes from. But in French it's Amélié. It's literally Emily. I grew up telling people how it's pronounced but I hated having nicknames. As an adult if people don't pronounce it the first 4 times(they have to get it correct even though it bugs me that they keep miss pronouncing my name after 5 times of trying) I just tell them Em. I usually dosen't bug me but some people just need to get over it and actually listen to the nickname I give them. Lol
@@amalieshelby I can totally relate. My name is Kayleighn. I've been called every damn variant of K names by teachers, new friends, waiters, neighbors, even some of my mom's friends that she raved about my name to before I was born. It's pronounced Kay-Leen. I'm sorry, but it's literally not that hard to remember. I've found that, having online friends now as an adult, people can easily remember my name without seeing it spelled out. It's when you tell them how it's spelled that throws them for a loop and makes them second-guess their pronunciation. Some of my closest friends went from calling me my full name to just Kay after teaching them the spelling. Like you said, it doesn't bother me too much because we're close, but they could all at least ask if I WANT to be called by a nickname when they already know how to say my name perfectly.
Hilarious! "Can I just borrow your pen"... or the nurse steals your favorite personal journaling pen, lol. (But she did save my life so its mildly forgiven, right?) 😂

My (work) pens get taken alot which is why I buy the back to school bags of Bic cuz at least they don't skip ha ha. Bless you for the work you do.
I too wanted a more unique name for my three girls. However, I chose names that are not commonly used in my area rather than weird or complicated spellings. Parents really need to think about their later 5 year old trying to write that on their kindergarten homework papers, or their older kiddo getting bullied for their name, or their adult child needing to sign that complicated thing on their job applications.
I didn't think of that for my oldest, though we did think of if her legal name would fit on a credit card! But with my youngest I am so gladd we did not end up with my name choice (another double name) because she is special needs. I often think of just how more diffcult teaching her to spell her name could have been. And none of the names were very odd spellings (one was because it was a foreign family name and I kept it here to annoy my hubby!).
This! I wanted unique names for my kods, picked Madison for my fiest and it ended up being in the top 3 that year. My other kids, their names aren't even in the top 500 for their birth years, but they're normal names, spelt normally
😂😂 I love this lol also you didn’t have to wait too long for that call to get answered, that’s the only unbelievable thing about this video to me 😂😂😂☠️
I have a rule about names. If you give your kid a first name that is uncommon or has a weird spelling, give them a basic name for their middle name. That way, they have an option to choose from when they’re putting together a resume.
I’m glad I stuck with traditional spelling for my kids. And I still get a funny “that’s so unique” sometimes when I spell my son’s name. 😮 Oh.. um I-S-A-I-A-H. “Why didn’t you spell it with a Z?” “I didn’t want him to get upset every time he typed his name in a computer/text and saw that red line underneath it telling him it was spelled wrong.”
The nurse refused to write Hannah a name for our daughter. That is not a cristian name, she replied. We are from Argentina and you can name your child exactly what you want.
I'm not sure what qualifies a name as being Christian but hannah is in the Bible... so I'm not sure what she was thinking. Plus it's your kid so it's your choice in name.
I worked in OB in the 1970’s there was a lady who wanted to name her little boy after all of her former boyfriends. All eight of them. At that time Michigan would only take one name as a first name so she had to choose one for the first name and the rest were registered as middle names. But there was a lot of arguments from the new mom!!
@@thehummingbirdbandit9542 We are from Argentina, Hannah here Is considered a foreing name, but se managed to name her the way we wanted. She Is 5 years old now
People will mispronounce and misspell names no matter what. My family has *slightly* unique spellings of common names, which I love! Shouldn’t be hard for people to grasp, but it is. Name your kid what you want (reasonably, of course) and not for the sake of people who can’t read😊 I like unique and cool names, but only slightly unique lol
Wait, is that how you spell it? I don't live in an English speaking country so never met anyone with that name and I swear it's like the third time someone uses this name to make fun of parents giving thier children "unique" names. And people in the comments play only wrong answers game so I've seen so many different spellings of this name but I'm sure none was the traditional one xD
A friend’s mom is a retired L&D nurse. Long story short, she and her colleagues got a 15yo mom many years ago. Baby pooped before delivery and J announced “meconium” to her colleagues, who sprang into action. Teen mom thought it was “beautiful” and named her new daughter Meconium. She refused to listen to any of them explaining that it was in utero poop. Even the hospital registrar couldn’t change her mind. Her reasoning was “since she didn’t know what it meant, no one else would either”. The kicker was that her surname was Brown. That child would be in her mid-20s or so now. I sincerely hope she changed her name legally.
Lola is beautiful. I'm sorry you had to deal with the crazy spelling before settling on Lola though. Sometimes it feels like these parents don't even think of their kids as individuals when they're born, like people who are going to grow up to be adults, it's more like they're just some accessory to the parents. People really need to take naming their children more seriously.
So my mom had like 50 kids...ok, only 6, of which I'm #5, and the best excuse I can come up with for MY name, is she was too tired to give a crap by the time I showed up. My name is Aramaic, and it translates to "little girl". Thanks, mom. I couldn't be Sue, or Debi, or Rose or some other single syllable name that EVERYONE in the 80's had. Noooo....I get to be a little girl, or a British term for a phone or television....*smh *For clarification, my name is Telitha, and since folks can't remember or pronounce it, I've been called Telly since forever.
😹 Teachers everywhere are having flashbacks!!! If parents are going to get angry about how their child’s name is pronounced; they shouldn’t make up strange ways to spell them. One year I had 7 different spellings of Ashlee. I had a girl named Latrine. Many names with accents, hyphens, dollar signs, and no vowels. One year, three periods in a row, contained a girl named Kira, but they all pronounced it differently!!! I could go on, but memorizing 210+ names a year in middle school was crazy!!!
I just had to come back to make this comment... I was just burning brain cells watching that Maury show & there was a guest with a baby named (what sounded like) SERENITY. No problem. Nice name. Then i see the name written on screen... SIR' RENNITY 🤣
I named my son Joseph. He was called "Joey" until 6th grade when he requested we call him "Joe". He's fabulous, and he's just "Joe", traditional spelling.
My great nephew did the same thing. On starting first grade he decided to be Travis instead of TJ. Family are allowed to call him either. I outed it to him. I was named after Mom and called by my middle name until middle school. My family still call me that. He was a little upset but once I pointed out that he still calls me by the wrong name, he calmed down.
This is one of my all time favorite issues to rant about with people because comparing stories about our own personal experiences ends up with everyone rolling their eyes and falling into a fit of giggles.. lol.. I knew a mom who decided to name her twin boys Orangejello and Lemonjello, only she pronounced them like they were exotic or something 😂😂 🤣🤣💀💀🤦♀️🤦♀️😭😭
My baby names aren't complicated or weird spellings but i plan to have them written out and in my go bag to simplifying trying to spell out loud while post partum. I once met a girl with a misspelled name because mom had passed out and dad didn't know the spelling
Same. But my name is Michele. My dad still spells my name on everything with two l's like Michelle. Not too big of a deal, but it was a mistake just like this. I tell him he's doing it wrong. Because my birth certificate has it spelled as Michele.
Thus! I was so exhausted after my eldest was born that my mom did the paperwork. She purposely left the second middle name out because the initials would've been MEEB and she didn't like it, like MEB is better 🙄. She wasn't present when I had my other kids, NVDBR, BRJBR, ADABR, ARHBR 😂😂😂
When my stepdad adopted me and they changed the name on my birth certificate, someone made a typo. My parents didn't bother to fix it so I went my whole childhood not knowing it was spelled wrong and then had to spend the first six months of my adult life trying to get my social security card, ID, and birth certificate all to have the same name, because no one would listen to me. Parents putting the wrong name on their kids' paperwork can ruin lives in ways people don't realize @@michelesimone6752
This is the first time I’ve seen your content, I really hope the crying eyes are for the bit. I was worried they were genuine from you personally (if they are, hang in there, you’ve got this)
My mother thought she was being creative…. She wasn’t. It actually had ruined my life. Correcting people my whole life, and struggled with getting paid from past jobs because they assumed the spelling of my name… I changed the spelling of my name legally 5 years ago and I’m so happy. When I had my son, I named him a a common name; doing same with our next.
When my daughter was sick I called the dr and they asked her name I said Ella . And the lady who answers goes “E?…L?…L…a??” I’m like “ya ???” And she’s go “oh thank god I’m not stupid just wouldn’t the names and spellings I seen” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have a unique spelling of my name for very good reasons, and I'm super proud of it... I love my name. But DAMN. As a kid, all I wanted was one of the bicycle name license plates, and that was never going to happen. It never stopped me from looking, and I was perpetually disappointed in trinket shops on every family vacation ever. (Edit... my UA-cam username is the Irish spelling of the county in Ireland where my Great-grandmother was born, not my name. Interestingly, I DID find a mug with Ciarrai when I was in Ireland 😆)
@@annalisacandaso-robertson9179my daughters' name was Analiese. I think I have seen it spelled Analise. My daughters name was supposed to be with 2 N's but my husband decided her name only needed one N and never told me. I had been speaking her name for the entire first year of her life when my sister in law questioned the spelling on Analiese's birthday cake. That's how I discovered what he had done. Yep. I wasn't happy. 😊 Anne Frank's name was Analise or Analisa. I don't remember. It's a beautiful name. ❤
I work with a system that is used by looking up a persons name to access account info, and I can't tell you the number of times someone has told me their name and then became upset when I couldn't spell it only for it to be some nonsense like this
My son’s names is probably overly Italian but that wasn’t the intention I’m just glad he has normal names and he has family names of importance. His first name is my grandpas middle name, spelled normally. His middle name is his father’s middle name which is also his paternal grandpas first name spelled normally. And he has his father’s last name because we are not married, I’m not crazy about my last name and who knows maybe we will marry someday but it’s never been important to us. Regardless it suited his first name best and his father and I have been dating 13 years and friends for 20 so it made sense.
Heard this story from a coworker today back in the 50s-60s her boyfriend’s parents had a housekeeper. She had just given birth to baby #8. She said she was running out of names and saw the name in the hospital and thought it was so beautiful. The baby’s name was pronounced R-Terry. She named the baby Artery… I hope that baby became a heart surgeon.
Oh Mylanta!!!!! I kid you not, As a Nurse.... When I saw "R-Terry".... That was the FIRST thing that came to mind even before I got to the end. Then I got to thinking... What if her middle name was something like: Heartisha?!??!!
I know I have shared this before but still so annoyed that my ex sister in law named her kid "cash money"Set him up for a life of bullying. Yes that is his legal first name "CashMoney "
I think we should form a committee who agrees on spelling on every name, and then we all have to stick to that. Every other spelling, straight to jail.
It makes me think of a story I heard about this college dorm that had a weird name competition. Long story short the "winner's" name was JKMNOP for Noel because they didn't use the L and wanted a different/unique spelling. 🙄 JKMNOP = No L = Noel
Unique spelling of a name is a good strategy for preventing confusion in the future. I have an extremely common first, middle and last name and as a result there are a few thousand men in this country with all three. In fact there are a few hundred who were born the same year and three men who have my exact first, middle and last name born on the exact same day. Unfortunately one of them has a long criminal history and a credit score of 17. I met the other one. We compared notes and hired the same attorney when we found out the other one ruined our name and credit. We spent thousands getting our credit and background fixed. Even to this day we both run into issues. All it takes is changing one or two letters to spell it differently in order to avoid this issue. That said, my cousin might have taken it a bit too far when he named his kid Taiphitt which he insists is a differently spelled version of David. My original suggestion of Davidd was rejected as too traditional.
My name is Ashlei. My mother wanted my name to end with "ie". My dad filled out the paperwork and misspelled it. Unfortunately, she loved it. I have now spent a lifetime of telling people how to spell my name. I would have much rather my name Ben spelled correctly and normally. When I see parents do these things to their children I cringe.
I like to think I picked a fairly normal name for my daughter xD but I did go traditional Irish for spelling Fiadh (Fia) Aisling (Ashlin) Quinn *lastname*
The difference is you're naming them a reasonably accepted spelling from a language that just happens to not be English. There's precedent. I never get frustrated at "foreign language" patient names with spellings and pronunciations I'm not used to, the world doesn't revolve around my native language. It's the people whom I KNOW are monolingual native English speakers who make up the most ridiculous and unintuitive spellings never before seen on God's green Earth for the most generic, basic, top 10 baby names purely because they want their child to be *special* but not *too special* that are annoying. I guarantee whatever school your child ends up in in America there will be three other Kimberly's. Shoving three Ys and five silent Es in the spelling will not make it unique, if you want unique pick a different name.
@@qiae5047that’s the thing i don’t like about the whole “tragedeigh” thing, some people jump on others and call it a “tragedeigh” when it’s literally just a different culture. idk it just feels really iffy to me.
Im SO glad I gave mine normal but uncommon names with regular spellings. Good for other people but I just didn't have the heart to do it to my girls 😂😅
For hippa related reasons.....I will only say...🙃🤪🙄.....about the complete lack of understanding of the English language used in naming of babies the last 20ish years. Of course, it is the right of the parents. Yet, obviously, these children have the right to change it later in life.
My sister has an Cool historical name. It's vary easy to spell easy to say. Lots of people either love it or hate it. One of my parents best friends was an linguist and historian. I also got an Cool name but it's become popular after I put it in a baby name website.
@@DeborahBirdsong Not going to say because of Internet safety. My name and my photo is two things I just won't put on the Internet. People might make fun of me for it but that's okay. We knew where technology was headed in the early days and nope then and now we getting to see some of it come to fruition.
I fully believe everyone should have one free, guaranteed name change in their lives. Trying to get mine changed is costing HUNDREDS of dollars just to file
In some countries, parents must select baby names from a government-approved list of names so that children are not burdened with their progenitors' weird choices for the rest of their lives.
Precisely!! I LITERALLY said, "Thank God for Jones" when I got married the 1st time and FINALLY had a name that I didn't have to spell for people to get it right!!!! I was 25 before I found another person who spelled Dianne with 2 ns and an e! My 1st name, maiden name, and nickname people butchered horribly!
Working postpartum floor doing newborn photography for almost 20 years.... birth certificate registration and I were often in the room together. She carried two ginormous baby name books on her cart. She also had a three ring binder for the ''creative'' names that the parents were either considering or had chosen for their child(ren). Living in the south, the deeep south, creativity in naming kids was almost seen as a challenge. Taken very Very seriously. She started writing down the uniqueness.. in a Pocket Sized notebook. Eh-hmmm a 3 ring binder is now used. She is now at the point where the 3 ring is now full...and the 3 subject college ruled spiral is filling up . The parents for the last several years have made it an Olympic sport. S.M.D.H. These kids and their kindergarten and first grade teachers are going to HATE the parents when they are trying to learn to spell and write it. 😮😂🎉 Oh s/n....using ONLY letters is now a thing of the past. These idiots in their need to have their kids ''stand out'' are using Letters==numbers==and Symbols....I.S.Y.N.
I work in child welfare and can’t even begin to tell you the names I’ve seen 🤦♀️ I call them scrabble names because it looks like someone’s set of tiles when playing the game.
I love “unique” names more like uncommon and have meaning behind them but this is UNHINGED 😂 my first daughter I named Julianna Reneé after her grandma, and great grandmother. My mom’s name is Julie middle name Ann, so I put it together for Julianna. And my grandma her great grandmothers name was Renee. And then my second daughter I named Everly Ruth, because she’s my happy Everly after and Ruth for my aunt her great aunt who was my god mother. 😊
I have actually hit the call light from inside the room because I needed my emotional support coworker cuz my patient was doing something so stupid that I couldn't believe my eyes 🤦♀️
Retired from 10 years working in OB - I never, never asked new mothers what they named their babies - it was too difficult to keep a straight face when the mother said some ridiculous made-up name. Babies were ID by a number on mom and baby's arm and ankle bands - that is all I needed to know.
My mom really wanted me to be Kymberleigh but my dad was like she has to spell her name by kindergarten and idk if she's gonna be able to pull that off lmao. So I ended up with Kimberlee which I think is a cute variant without being...Like That.
I used to work postpartum during the times that people named their kids after words spelled backward (ex: Nevaeh). This teenage mom wanted to name her daughter after her mom's name "Lisa " but backwards. So Asil. Asil sounded so close to assh*le that she was the only patient i ever had that I actually said: "Are you sure about that name?" And honestly, there were some other crazy names out there that I kept my mouth shut, but that one took the cake.
I predicted the y and eigh but, I have no doubt this is a real spelling. My mum's job means she sees birth certs daily. Each new weird spelling I get told about confuses me. When they're féin other countries it's fine, but when you make it up to be unique it's just going to cause issues for your kids learning to spell. And they'll get upset when snack when they don't find their name, or the right spelling of their name, on named toys or books
REMEMBER PARENTS: One day your child will have to put that name you chose at the top of a résumé... if they survive the elementary school teasing, and make it through the middle and high school bullying! Be kind to your child!!! 🤔
I'm a South African living in Portugal. The Portuguese have a list of names you can choose from and nothing else. At first, I was pretty upset about it, but now I see why they do it! lol besides the list at least has a decent variety of names.
Many years ago, I was a NICU nurse, and we attended high-risk deliveries. A mother delivered a premie, and when asked what she wanted to name her daughter, she said, "Vagina." Not even kidding! The L&D nurse was a seasoned nurse, and without missing a beat, she said, "No honey, you cannot name your child Vagina, shall I put down "Virginia?" 😅😅😅😅
I knew a woman named Aquanetta. Yep. Last day to name her and closest thing to Mom was a can of hair spray. 😂 This is why some countries actually have lists of names you can name your baby. And those are the ONLY names. 🤦♀️
I work with medical records and these names are out of hand, yall. They get even more wild with twins. Some people shouldn't be allowed to name another human.
The only one story that I heard about a horrific name that I completely understand. Was there was a girl who had significant down syndrome and had been raped by a family member. Her child had died just a few moments after birth and when they asked her what she wanted to name the baby she said she heard the doctor say a beautiful name while she was giving birth. The nursing staff was completely confused and so they asked her what she heard and she said vagina tore. She didn't understand that that was a medical term and went absolutely hysterical when she was told she couldn't use that name. So the nurse actually changed the baby's name on the birth certificate and the funny thing is, is that she changed it to Kimberly. This is a 100% true story. I don't think the family member was ever charged with raping the girl either. The family was in denial. Unfortunately the girl lives at home in the situation instead of a care facility which I believe she would probably have been safer in. Although in the area where I grew up out by Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania in Edwardsville there was a long-term care facility where a girl who was in a coma was being taken care of. She gave birth and went into labor in the care facility. They had no idea she was pregnant she was actually raped by a staff member..

Omgg nooooo 😩😩
What about im gonna name my daughter Lisa but spelled as Lyszah
Well, depending on the unique name. Mine is Amalie but that's the American/ English way of spelling it. I'm not 100% sure how it's spelt in German because that where the name comes from. But in French it's Amélié.
It's literally Emily. I grew up telling people how it's pronounced but I hated having nicknames. As an adult if people don't pronounce it the first 4 times(they have to get it correct even though it bugs me that they keep miss pronouncing my name after 5 times of trying) I just tell them Em.
I usually dosen't bug me but some people just need to get over it and actually listen to the nickname I give them. Lol
@@amalieshelby I can totally relate. My name is Kayleighn. I've been called every damn variant of K names by teachers, new friends, waiters, neighbors, even some of my mom's friends that she raved about my name to before I was born. It's pronounced Kay-Leen. I'm sorry, but it's literally not that hard to remember.
I've found that, having online friends now as an adult, people can easily remember my name without seeing it spelled out. It's when you tell them how it's spelled that throws them for a loop and makes them second-guess their pronunciation. Some of my closest friends went from calling me my full name to just Kay after teaching them the spelling.
Like you said, it doesn't bother me too much because we're close, but they could all at least ask if I WANT to be called by a nickname when they already know how to say my name perfectly.
@@Esperanza.. I'm sorry but there's a 78% chance that your kid would get nicknamed Lysol in middle school 😭
Hilarious!
"Can I just borrow your pen"... or the nurse steals your favorite personal journaling pen, lol. (But she did save my life so its mildly forgiven, right?) 😂
Ha! I've done that before. I always apologize a million times after stealing it for the entire day. I didn't mean to. I just forgot.😅
@@NurseInTraining I honestly didn't say anything. I didn't want her to feel bad, lol. The pen she left tho was sooooo bad 🤣, like not even a boring bic, just a bad cheapie. But I get it. My (work) pens get taken alot which is why I buy the back to school bags of Bic cuz at least they don't skip ha ha. Bless you for the work you do.
I too wanted a more unique name for my three girls. However, I chose names that are not commonly used in my area rather than weird or complicated spellings. Parents really need to think about their later 5 year old trying to write that on their kindergarten homework papers, or their older kiddo getting bullied for their name, or their adult child needing to sign that complicated thing on their job applications.
We chose classic names that everyone's familiar with, but nobody uses anymore. Like Diedrich, Norman, Alma and Blythe.
I find that kids are cruel, no matter what the circumstances are, name your kid whatever you want.
I didn't think of that for my oldest, though we did think of if her legal name would fit on a credit card! But with my youngest I am so gladd we did not end up with my name choice (another double name) because she is special needs. I often think of just how more diffcult teaching her to spell her name could have been. And none of the names were very odd spellings (one was because it was a foreign family name and I kept it here to annoy my hubby!).
Or why their adult child will in all likelihood legally change the name later on. Nope, they’re not considering these things at all.
This! I wanted unique names for my kods, picked Madison for my fiest and it ended up being in the top 3 that year. My other kids, their names aren't even in the top 500 for their birth years, but they're normal names, spelt normally
😂😂 I love this lol also you didn’t have to wait too long for that call to get answered, that’s the only unbelievable thing about this video to me 😂😂😂☠️
So many people look at their baby and fail to consider the adult they will become.
I have a rule about names. If you give your kid a first name that is uncommon or has a weird spelling, give them a basic name for their middle name. That way, they have an option to choose from when they’re putting together a resume.
I’m glad I stuck with traditional spelling for my kids. And I still get a funny “that’s so unique” sometimes when I spell my son’s name. 😮 Oh.. um I-S-A-I-A-H. “Why didn’t you spell it with a Z?” “I didn’t want him to get upset every time he typed his name in a computer/text and saw that red line underneath it telling him it was spelled wrong.”
"Ooh-- gotta go to the next line" got me weak 🤣
The nurse refused to write Hannah a name for our daughter. That is not a cristian name, she replied. We are from Argentina and you can name your child exactly what you want.
I'm not sure what qualifies a name as being Christian but hannah is in the Bible... so I'm not sure what she was thinking. Plus it's your kid so it's your choice in name.
I worked in OB in the 1970’s there was a lady who wanted to name her little boy after all of her former boyfriends. All eight of them. At that time Michigan would only take one name as a first name so she had to choose one for the first name and the rest were registered as middle names.
But there was a lot of arguments from the new mom!!
There's literally a Hannah in the Bible who's the mother of a famous prophet.
Hannah is literally a biblical name!!! What the hell was she talking about? I hope you were able to get your daughter named what you wanted
@@thehummingbirdbandit9542 We are from Argentina, Hannah here Is considered a foreing name, but se managed to name her the way we wanted. She Is 5 years old now
Oh lordy that gum smacking is a hoot.
People will mispronounce and misspell names no matter what. My family has *slightly* unique spellings of common names, which I love! Shouldn’t be hard for people to grasp, but it is. Name your kid what you want (reasonably, of course) and not for the sake of people who can’t read😊
I like unique and cool names, but only slightly unique lol
As the mom of a KIMBERLY, I cosign this message. 🤣
Wait, is that how you spell it? I don't live in an English speaking country so never met anyone with that name and I swear it's like the third time someone uses this name to make fun of parents giving thier children "unique" names. And people in the comments play only wrong answers game so I've seen so many different spellings of this name but I'm sure none was the traditional one xD
@@saralaerevu8735 lol yes, Kimberly was the most common spelling in the US.
A friend’s mom is a retired L&D nurse. Long story short, she and her colleagues got a 15yo mom many years ago. Baby pooped before delivery and J announced “meconium” to her colleagues, who sprang into action. Teen mom thought it was “beautiful” and named her new daughter Meconium. She refused to listen to any of them explaining that it was in utero poop. Even the hospital registrar couldn’t change her mind. Her reasoning was “since she didn’t know what it meant, no one else would either”.
The kicker was that her surname was Brown. That child would be in her mid-20s or so now. I sincerely hope she changed her name legally.
That poor, poor child. And really that poor mom because we've all made questionable decisions in our teens.
I had that mom. Hated spelling things normally. Now my name is legally lola cause its the easiest name to spell
Legally Lola
Cool name.
Lola is beautiful. I'm sorry you had to deal with the crazy spelling before settling on Lola though. Sometimes it feels like these parents don't even think of their kids as individuals when they're born, like people who are going to grow up to be adults, it's more like they're just some accessory to the parents. People really need to take naming their children more seriously.
So my mom had like 50 kids...ok, only 6, of which I'm #5, and the best excuse I can come up with for MY name, is she was too tired to give a crap by the time I showed up.
My name is Aramaic, and it translates to "little girl". Thanks, mom. I couldn't be Sue, or Debi, or Rose or some other single syllable name that EVERYONE in the 80's had. Noooo....I get to be a little girl, or a British term for a phone or television....*smh
*For clarification, my name is Telitha, and since folks can't remember or pronounce it, I've been called Telly since forever.

Six kids isn’t that many though.
The “I’m all done I quit” 🤣🤣😂
😹 Teachers everywhere are having flashbacks!!! If parents are going to get angry about how their child’s name is pronounced; they shouldn’t make up strange ways to spell them.
One year I had 7 different spellings of Ashlee. I had a girl named Latrine. Many names with accents, hyphens, dollar signs, and no vowels. One year, three periods in a row, contained a girl named Kira, but they all pronounced it differently!!!
I could go on, but memorizing 210+ names a year in middle school was crazy!!!

I named my son Joseph. He was called "Joey" until 6th grade when he requested we call him "Joe". He's fabulous, and he's just "Joe", traditional spelling.
My great nephew did the same thing. On starting first grade he decided to be Travis instead of TJ. Family are allowed to call him either.
I outed it to him. I was named after Mom and called by my middle name until middle school. My family still call me that. He was a little upset but once I pointed out that he still calls me by the wrong name, he calmed down.
This is one of my all time favorite issues to rant about with people because comparing stories about our own personal experiences ends up with everyone rolling their eyes and falling into a fit of giggles.. lol.. I knew a mom who decided to name her twin boys Orangejello and Lemonjello, only she pronounced them like they were exotic or something 😂😂 🤣🤣💀💀🤦♀️🤦♀️😭😭
That's an old story. True but old
My baby names aren't complicated or weird spellings but i plan to have them written out and in my go bag to simplifying trying to spell out loud while post partum. I once met a girl with a misspelled name because mom had passed out and dad didn't know the spelling
Same. But my name is Michele. My dad still spells my name on everything with two l's like Michelle. Not too big of a deal, but it was a mistake just like this. I tell him he's doing it wrong. Because my birth certificate has it spelled as Michele.
I gave a cousin named Michel rose...a boy whose name is pronounce Michael Ross!!
Thus! I was so exhausted after my eldest was born that my mom did the paperwork. She purposely left the second middle name out because the initials would've been MEEB and she didn't like it, like MEB is better 🙄. She wasn't present when I had my other kids, NVDBR, BRJBR, ADABR, ARHBR 😂😂😂
And that dad was reminded every day that he was not allowed to make final decisions on anything remotely important 😂❤
When my stepdad adopted me and they changed the name on my birth certificate, someone made a typo. My parents didn't bother to fix it so I went my whole childhood not knowing it was spelled wrong and then had to spend the first six months of my adult life trying to get my social security card, ID, and birth certificate all to have the same name, because no one would listen to me.

My son’s names is probably overly Italian but that wasn’t the intention I’m just glad he has normal names and he has family names of importance. His first name is my grandpas middle name, spelled normally. His middle name is his father’s middle name which is also his paternal grandpas first name spelled normally. And he has his father’s last name because we are not married, I’m not crazy about my last name and who knows maybe we will marry someday but it’s never been important to us. Regardless it suited his first name best and his father and I have been dating 13 years and friends for 20 so it made sense.
Heard this story from a coworker today back in the 50s-60s her boyfriend’s parents had a housekeeper. She had just given birth to baby #8. She said she was running out of names and saw the name in the hospital and thought it was so beautiful. The baby’s name was pronounced R-Terry. She named the baby Artery… I hope that baby became a heart surgeon.

@@AJtraductora lol my bad I messed part of it up it was late when I wrote it. It's fixed now
Unique spelling of a name is a good strategy for preventing confusion in the future. I have an extremely common first, middle and last name and as a result there are a few thousand men in this country with all three. In fact there are a few hundred who were born the same year and three men who have my exact first, middle and last name born on the exact same day. Unfortunately one of them has a long criminal history and a credit score of 17. I met the other one. We compared notes and hired the same attorney when we found out the other one ruined our name and credit. We spent thousands getting our credit and background fixed. Even to this day we both run into issues.
All it takes is changing one or two letters to spell it differently in order to avoid this issue.
That said, my cousin might have taken it a bit too far when he named his kid Taiphitt which he insists is a differently spelled version of David. My original suggestion of Davidd was rejected as too traditional.

The difference is you're naming them a reasonably accepted spelling from a language that just happens to not be English. There's precedent. I never get frustrated at "foreign language" patient names with spellings and pronunciations I'm not used to, the world doesn't revolve around my native language.
It's the people whom I KNOW are monolingual native English speakers who make up the most ridiculous and unintuitive spellings never before seen on God's green Earth for the most generic, basic, top 10 baby names purely because they want their child to be *special* but not *too special* that are annoying. I guarantee whatever school your child ends up in in America there will be three other Kimberly's. Shoving three Ys and five silent Es in the spelling will not make it unique, if you want unique pick a different name.

I work with medical records and these names are out of hand, yall. They get even more wild with twins. Some people shouldn't be allowed to name another human.
The only one story that I heard about a horrific name that I completely understand. Was there was a girl who had significant down syndrome and had been raped by a family member. Her child had died just a few moments after birth and when they asked her what she wanted to name the baby she said she heard the doctor say a beautiful name while she was giving birth. The nursing staff was completely confused and so they asked her what she heard and she said vagina tore. She didn't understand that that was a medical term and went absolutely hysterical when she was told she couldn't use that name. So the nurse actually changed the baby's name on the birth certificate and the funny thing is, is that she changed it to Kimberly. This is a 100% true story. I don't think the family member was ever charged with raping the girl either. The family was in denial. Unfortunately the girl lives at home in the situation instead of a care facility which I believe she would probably have been safer in. Although in the area where I grew up out by Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania in Edwardsville there was a long-term care facility where a girl who was in a coma was being taken care of. She gave birth and went into labor in the care facility. They had no idea she was pregnant she was actually raped by a staff member..
