out of all of those, I feel the most sorry for Tuff.

Because you know he's going to get into fights his entire life when people try to see if he's actually tuff.

Maybe his old man wasn't going to be around, so he gave his son that name and said 'Goodbye' knowing he'd have to get tough or die.

FTA: "One girl each received these names: Amazing-Grace, A'Miracle, Apple, Babygirl, Beyonce, Dae'Gorgeous, Elektra, Forever, Gorgeousg'zaiya, Myranique, Paisley-Ann, Passion, Praisegod and Radiance.

Some of the more creative boy names appeared inspired by faith: Divinefavour, Ezra-Nehemiah, Godswill, Goodness, JesusNazaret and King-David. Other little guys were dubbed Baby Boy, Clever, Handsome, Sir Genius, Memphiz and Tuff. In true Texas flair, one boy was named Stetson and another's first name: Dallas Cowboys."

WTF PEOPLE!?!?!?!

...and this is why we need a 24 hour waiting period for mothers who want to name their kids right after having an epidural or other forms of anaesthesia.

Where I used to work, a High School equivalency application came in with the first name of Pornpongs.

Shouldn't it be DeHandsome and DeBabyBoy?

What about Nosmo King?

LeMonjello?

This makes me want to name my kid "Facepalm."

I have a deal with my wife. I'll only agree to kids if I get to name 'em, no questions asked. She said fine. Then I told her that the first three would be Optimus, Robocop and Batman.

"What if they're girls?" she asked.

"Those ARE the girls," I said.

So, yeah. No kids yet.

Dr. Farnsworth, do you want to live on this planet anymore?
 
2011-12-30 04:18:28 PM
The most creative name I've heard recently was pronounced "LaDasha". Doesn't actually sound that strange, for an black kid's name from the inner city. The awesome comes in the spelling. The kid's name is officially spelled: "La-a"
 
2011-12-30 04:18:46 PM
FTFA: However, Jacob joined Isabella atop the list of the most popular names for newborns in Texas


Oh for fark's sake

And give a big round of applause for Dae'Gorgeous and Elektra now dancing on center stage. Make it rain, fellas.

FFS.

The circumstances that one would name a child "baby boy" are generally not always positive ones.

Don't be sad, 'cause two outta three ain't bad.

Penn Jillette named his daughter Moxie CrimeFighter Jillette. But then, He's Penn Jillette and he can do that.

I think the worse name you could call your baby girl is "Britney".
 
2011-12-30 04:23:33 PM
I once worked with a "Sir King"... years later, after I'd graduated college and left that job, I returned to do some shopping. It was very odd to being telling "Sir King" that I wanted paper, not plastic. I'm not exactly sure what his parents had in mind with that monicker.

This would be totally awesome were they one of those couples who call each other Mommy and Daddy.

Would you consider Jerome to be a "black" or a "white" name?
