A FB friend just announced that her daughter was born this morning. I was all excited until I got to the name...
Rhaegyn
No joke. And sadly there were several "love the name" comments. I had to sound it out about three times to realize what it was. Yikes.
Oh, FFS.
Re: Bad, bad baby name
Oh good, it wasn't just me then. It's supposed to sound like Reagan. That spelling is just...absurd.
That's just plain mean.
Ugh, right? That poor girl will have to spell and pronounce her name every.single.time she meets someone new.
hahahahhaha. OMG. Poor baby.
I constantly threatened to name our kid Arthas, which would be a legit, though awful, WoW name.
I'm a little sad you didn't.
We named our cat Geralt as in the main character from the Witcher series. Our future children are in serious danger of being named after our D&D characters. Fortunately we name them thinks like Arianna and Rowan... so only a little eyeroll worthy until you discover the source.
Oh for shiits sake. Why?!
SERIOUSLY. How do people think any of these names are a good idea?
I really doubt our future POTUS is going to be named Jacksynn Blayze or that Rhaegyn has a chance at the Nobel prize. Think about how these things sound people!
This is why my "Are you smart enough to take your kid home from the hospital?" test would have the birth certificate attached to it - if you name your kid something like this, you get automatically put in the "No" pile.
That is awful. Poor baby. DH has a weird spelling of a common name (Kristopher instead of Christopher), and then our last name is a doozy. It's a real pain in the a$$ to have to spell the first and last name every single time.
One of the contestants on the Biggest Loser this season is named Chism. It sounds like a place I want the Kardashian family to fall into.
Did you also think he looked like Ralph Macchio? I mean, Ralph Macchio if he had consumed the Cobra Kais?
snicker snort
OMG, dead on both counts.
