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...

I was never mad about the name Eric but for a girl I like the feminine form...

People spelling their name or parents who spell their name a funny or stupid way,
Just spell it the usual way

how do you mean? Do you mean spelling their birth name differently later on in life or altering the spelling of an existing name and christening your child said "new version" Your name is your name? 99% of names derive from another spelling origin.

I mean, give us an example of said muppetry

Most names evolve over time, spelling wise over time. Do we stop the trend now?

I know 2 women in their 60s called Declan and Michael. And they aren't nuns.

For some reason some people call their sons Colm but pronounce it Cullum......hate that.

There is no way I'd be calling that kid anything other than Orangeade.

You call your child a name like that, you deal with the consequences.

I heard a woman roaring at her child to come back when she was skating off on her scooter, "Sophia Lily! Sophia Lily come back!"

Lovely name, actually. But do you have to call her Sophia Lily all the time? Why not just Sophie or something? Friends of mine named their first daughter Erin-Jade. I kept calling her Erin just to be corrected every time, it's Erin-Jade.

Nikita is actually more commonly used as a male name. One of Russia (S.U.) most prominent Cold War leaders had the name.
He dressed smartly, no make up, 5 kids but hung around with a bunch of scumbag corrupt Russian politicians.

There was a Nikita on that Tallafornia show, she is in her late 20s I would imagine. By association with her, that name is now well and truly tarred for me.

You know when there's a gang of young scumbags who hang around an estate and there's always one girl with them. She's plastered in make up, dressed inappropriately and has 3 kids for 3 of the scumbags by the time she hits 20...that's Nikita.

I worked with a Nikita in her mid twenties. I would always add the word 'Banana' whenever I heard her name.

I know a girl in her mid 20's called Shakira...I'm convinced she changed it as soon as she could, no parents were calling their kids Shakira back in the wary 90's.

Was in Liverpool recently and little Albie was running amok in the Disney store while his aul one was at the till. Staff were saying how adorable he was but you know deep down they were thinking what a little sh!t.

Also heard a Nikita the other day. I think that's the female equivalent of Warren. Nothing good is coming from that child.

Thats a nice name but I know 2 guys called Keelan so association gives me a bias, and ironically, as per the name origin, both are very slender lads!

For me it's a girl's name! I have come across one or two Keelins, so in my head it's a girl's name, though I know it can be used for boys too. And the Keelins/Keelans I've come across are mostly from ultra-chavvy families so for me it's tainted...

American runner called Just’N Thymes. Yes, not kidding. Not the worst, but fairly comical. The parents must have been diehard track fans.

It's up there with another American runner, Autumn Fogg.

P.S. You can google these names if you don't believe me.

I kid you not, and I was so shocked I even asked the spelling (as I thought maybe she was going to say Kye or something) but no, somebody has decided to officially name their poor child KY, she pronounced it kie like die or lie

Maybe the parents are from Kerry and particularly fond of the car registration plate?

(would also explain someone with your username not liking it

)
