Child Item

The worst kid's name you've ever heard?

...because I think I can beat them all. I swear I considered strangling the poor little bugger to death for his own good. Sit down. Calmly take a deep breath and prepare yourself...

A quick search tells me that i's come up a few times over the years, but "Attracta" is an awful name I have come across. She is about 60.

I also know of "Eucharia" who is 28 years old.

Con, I just hate Con (abbreviation or not) I just think it sounds awful as a boy/Man's name.

Con artist, it's a con, you've been conned etc come to mind.....

Jaaayzus, I assume they didn't google the second one before deciding on it!

Could have been their inspiration?!

I was in a park cafe recently, everyone sipping their drinks and chatting away in a sort of low murmur. Then at the top of her voice a woman calls out to her toddler son, in such a way that we were all meant to take notice. Stops again short of our table and shouts again, 'Jasper!'.

My cup went down in a slow decent before throwing her a filthy. For the combination of her - look at me and what I've called my son antics, shouting beside me, but also for burdening an innocent child with a name like that. A real air of 'my child is better than everyone else's from her, insufferable twit.

Jasper Carrot anyone?

Isn't that name, or a version of it, mentioned in the last line of our national anthem? "Shoving Connie around the field......".

I don't like it either but not exactly a ridiculous name

I was in tesco the other day and the lady scanning my shopping was called Cheyenne. I thought I'd never get to post in this thread!

Fionn - but pronounced Fee-On and not Fee-Yun.

Pretentious.

Oh she's not even a nerdy type, just pure scaldy Hunzo.

I was reading an article earlier about a woman in Maryland, USA. She called her child oillite. A name she heard in England.

Nobody in maryland could pronounce it. This was stressing her out so much, 3months later she changed it to Margot.

Daily mail I think it was

My name's Ina (I'm austrian) and nobody in Ireland can pronounce it properly.

My sister's called Agnes. She is only partly happy about it.

Likely due to association with Iona Institute?

I really dislike Eleanor - no idea why. But it is not the worst I have heard.

She must have pulled into Kwik Fit for something.

Michael Phelps has a son named 'Boomer'.

I quite like it but some people seem to think it's a ridiculous name.

It's certainly not as bad as some other American names. Sarah Palin has children named 'Track Cj' and 'Trig Parxson Van", which sounds like some sort of getaway vehicle.

I know an Ina. She pronounces it eye-na.

I used to know an Ira. Not an Irish person. Not many Irish Iras, for some reason

Going the same way as the name Isis. Which is a shame that it is tainted.
