Worst name you’ve heard recently

[Anonymous]

I recently found out that an acquaintance has a daughter named Renesmee, like from Twilight, which is bad enough, but get this—they spell it Renezmae. RENEZMAE.

My pregnant friend has Eryn on her short list because her husband likes it with a Y to match his daughter Caelyn. I encouraged her to put her foot down if he doesn’t get the trashy vibe that spelling gives when Erin is a great name.

Braylinn. Like a donkey braying.

+1. What’s the point of this thread? You don’t have bigger things to worry about in your life?

Maybe they are trying distract themselves?

Renezmae Is a truly unfortunate name.

naming a person is hard. To be generous, maybe OP wants to get a sense of the types of things that are mistakes.

I love this kind of thread. It is entertaining.

Bowen and Greenlee, both girls. Different families.

Me too. One of the kindest women I know has that name. She's also very accomplished and polished. I don't get trashy vibe at all.

We have a relative who keeps insisting on putting random apostrophes into their kids' names. Each kid gets a worse name than the ones before them. Not sure why the obsession with punctuation marks in names, but it rings cheap to me.

Isn't that something they advertise on tv for moderate to severe plaque psoriasis with RA? Ok, no but it should be.
