    Also as I mentioned New Zealand above. There's a kid in school with mine called Kai - which is the te reo (Maori) word for food and is commonly used by people in NZ in conversation as in "will be go grab some kai".

    Unfortunate name for a child!

    Thankfully I am passed the Paw Patrol phase. My kids have been deprogrammed!

    I already went through Dora the Explorer and Bob the Builder phases with my 2 elder kids, I'm mentally preparing myself!

    Kiki

    Used to be women called kiki ,now there's lads with the name

    Kiki, it’s a criminally lazy name to give a child. Not very Irish either, Kiki O’ Leary ? No thanks... I had an ex boss called Caelan which was weird especially considering the uniqueness of his surname too, deserved it though, a total cûnt.

    Maybe Jayden was conceived on Quaaludes while his folks were a fornicatin', sure beats gettin' high on oxycotin.

    Enid Blyton books -forget which series - their pet parrot was called Kiki. Forever enshrined.

    Remember Zeus in the film Defiance? He was played by Leif Screiber?

    In fairness, The Famous Five had a dog called Timmy and a girl called George.
    Enid was either seriously f*cked up or well before her time.

    By memory, George was Georgina, and not overly fond of the whole name.

    What's the objection to a dog called Timmy?

    There’s a “Rocco” in school with my kids.

    Was at an event there on Saturday and got talking to a friend of a friend who’s partner just had a baby. I enquired as to the name, or if they’d chosen one, and he told me they would be calling him “Mulick”.

    Now, I heard “Ulick” so I asked him if that was after the writer, Ulick O’Connor, who passed away recently enough.

    I mean, the only other “Ulick” I could think of was a character from Brinsley MacNamara’s ‘The Valley of the Squinting Windows’ and, of course, the fictitious “Magee” you’d see in “guest books” around the country.

    Anyway, no, I was told the name was going to be “Mulick”. They like the sound of it.

    What about Donald Trump's son 'Baron'.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,439 ✭✭✭corner of hells


    "Dakodah Marie" , that's it , that's how she spelt it.She wanted something unique.

    I mean who in their right mind calls a child Marie , these days.

    What we gonna do when these ostentatious names become the norm

    As is happening, in certain sections of our communities we’re not seriously expected to utter them without wryly mocking / breaking our shįįte laughing are we? That would take immense restraint
