Worst attempt ever. You should be forced to transcribe The Lord of the Rings into every world language with a crayon.

Only every world language? Tolkien would not approve. Hamadeusentman should have to invent a couple of languages and alphabets of his own.

My missus and I screen shot awful child names to each other quite regularly because we are bad people. Last night I got one with the name Poppy-Paris on it. Imagine that on a CV.

Not to mention the fact that child will probably be known as Peepee in school :eek:

Badly Drunk Boy

There's a producer/writer on the programmes Arrow and Law & Order: SVU called Speed Weed. I presume his parents thought it'd be funny naming him after two rhyming drugs. (He wasn't christening 'Speed' but he's been called that since the day he was born.)

I heard of David Bowie calling his son Zowie Bowie but I was just reading something about T-Rex and Marc Bolan called his son Rolan, Rolan Bolan. It's a terrible name but I actually love it

Not sure if Zowie Bowie was his actual legal real name but he goes by Duncan Jones now and is a very successful director

and still ricky villa

There was a Holden kicking other kids on a bouncy castle on Sunday
Pretentious name = obnoxious child

A girl I know named her daughter Sequoia, pronounced Seh-koi-ah.

As in Sequoia the red wood tree.

Its probably the most preposterous naming Ive ever encountered in the wild.

I think Zowie was his middle name so Bowie didn't take it as far a Marc Bolan! I don't know I might prefer Zowie Bowie than Duncan Jones

Bob Dylan's first girlfriend's name was Echo Star Helstrom. I actually think Echo is lovely but I wouldn't call a child that. Good hippy name though

That can't be real!

I'd like to think that if one of my mates or family members deciced to name their kid something so insane that I'd say something, anything, to ensure the kid isn't bullied for the rest of their lives.

It's not Irish for anything. Stop misappropriating ancient Gaelic names with English equivalents- that pisses me off.


I suppose Eire is the Gaelic for Ireland? I suppose Sean is the Gaelic for John? I suppose Corcaigh is the Gaelic for Cork?



No- they are anglicized names imposed during the Penal times.



The Gaelic names came first and the English equivalents don't mean jack ****. Whereas the Gaelic names actually mean something...:mad:



Ps I have no opinion on Gobnait.

In England it basically screams Council tenant, Vauxhall driving, St George's flag outside the house, holiday in Santa Ponza, tattooed pleb.
