Chelsea, Jordan (for a boy or girl), Clarice, Charity, Chantelle, Charmaine- all names of students I've had & felt sorry for with those names.

Also, if you name your daughter Sorcha, then it's pronounced "Sur-uh-ka", not Soorsha or Sohrsha or whatever made up sheeeite you're coming up with.

sure you're not confusing it with saoirse?

Gaelic names are lovely.

Some of them are, but I somehow associate them with the celtic tiger and Irish Pride"

Everyone of my many nephs and nieces have them, I can't even spell some of their obscure gaelic names.

+1.

so how do they expect foreign employers to pronounce their names when they call them for interview ?

Anyway, talking about ugly names, I heard of a fellow with a ring through his body, he was called Pierce.

Nah I've heard Sorcha being pronounced like that too.

I have a Saoirse, and I'm funny over how it's pronouced. It comes from the word saor and should be pronounced as such. Not seersha.

I know of someone who called their child Percy a few weeks ago. I really don't like it for a baby

Also know someone with a Rianna but she's around alot longer than the singer!

rebel.ranter · 31-12-2011 2:31pm

I was on the Cork - Dublin train last year & atimerick junction a woman & her two kids got on, the mother proceeded to shout at them "Keefer, Shania! Sit down will ya!"
There was quite a few giggles.

The other unusual name I heard was a guy I know has a brother called Sheldon. It cracks me up but he doesn't see the funny side.

I agree.

I think parents who do this are not really giving their children names.

They're just making a 'statement' to the world.

'I'm more Irish than thou'

Dickheads.:rolleyes:

I know. It's desperate. Next thing, they'll be watching the Dubs or even Hurling or camogie. The horror of it. Sending their kids to Gaelscoileanna and Irish dancing lessons.

It must be truly horrible in other countries like Russia or Poland, with poor kids being given horrible Russian or Polish names and being educated in their own languages and learning ballet or some such "culture".

I, for one, welcome the modern celebrity culture. All boy's go to soccer school; all girl's to WAG school.

I'm off to change the twins' (Dilsexia and Dipsraxia) nappies and feed them their McDonalds.

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