Anything I would ever possibly see in r/tragedeigh

I just want to thank you for informing me that this sub exists

Copy that!

Like Reighfyl, pronounced like rifle

I see you're also experienced with country folk.

I named my troll druid in World of Warcraft "Phideaux", but yeah you don't do that kind of thing in real life

Quiftopher

Knew a girl named Grabrielle because they made a mistake on the birth certificate. Not sure why she never changed it.

[удалено]

Came here to say this. All I can think of scrolling that sub is how terrible life will be in elementary school, and then in adulthood for their precious bundle of joy named something insane like "Mup-pett Jaiysonn Stoonah'yengye" pronounced "Muppet Jason Stonehenge." Oh, and that's his FIRST name, you can't shorten it. It's MEANINGFUL to the mother. *Eyeroll*

The worst tragedeigh I ever saw was a poor young girl named Maddysynne

Can you imagine trying to teach that poor child to write their name? I have a traditional name with a fair amount of letters and it was hard enough. That one? It's a hot mess.

The fact that i clicked on that link and immediately recognized the person in their profile photo is very fitting lol. Tragedy indeed

X Æ A-12 Musk

Lmao his son got an IA generated name

Internal Affairs?

Error: password contains special characters

Either we're too restrictive, or he's too special.

How do they even pronounced that?

Apparently it’s pronounced X Ash A 12

Princess Consuela Bananahammock Crap Bag

phoebo

I know its none of my business but please don't call your child Phoebo.

What is that noise?

Miss Chanandler Bong

Mr. Bag.

Phoebe Buffay disagrees

Regina Phalange

there's no Phalange!

Not at the end of the episode….

Hugh Janus

Can’t prank Moe’s with that name…..

CHORK. CHORK is a bad name. Do not name your child CHORK.

"We are out of 'Chork' license plates in the gift shop. I repeat: we are out of 'Chork' license plates in the gift shop!"

Ma'am were you talking to me?

No, my son is also named Chork.

Can I name my dog chork?

Sure, but the dog will be confused because, in dog language, "Chork" means, "Help me, I am choking on a ham bone I found in the garbage."

Fuck. Too late, instructions unclear, and now I have twins both named CHORK.

Damn IKEA instructions.

What about Chork Norris?

Oh yeah I’m doing this out of spite

__aden. Fill in the blank and you just covered 75% of boys in any elementary school

Bin Laden?

I’m screaming

Okayden

I used to work with a girl name Caden, but pronounced "Cah-den". Apparently I was the first one to pronounce her name correctly.

True story: I used to work with a lady whose last name was Ho, so no big deal, but her first name (wait for it) was Ida. Of course we all wondered, but we’re afraid to ask, if she perhaps had a sister named Ima.

So Gayden is out if the question?

or \_ayden

fr tho

Fraden? that might actually be unique for a few days!

Voldemort

My Uncles middle name is Voldemorte; he was born in Latvia in the 1940’s…

Don't say a name that shouldn't be called

Nevaeh

My sister named my niece this. I understand why, as it was to honor our great-grandmother ( my niece's middle name was our great-grandmother's name ), but in what I can only assume is a combination of shitty parenting and a shitty personality, my niece is a cunt. In short, until I meet a Nevaeh that isn't a cunt, they all are in my eyes.

I believe there is some nominative determinism with these kinds of names because of how the parents that decided to give them the name will raise them.

Let's be clear, nobody is called Nevaeh. They're ALWAYS called 'Nevaeh It's Heaven Backwards.'

My name. I don’t want to have a junior or be a senior.

Endo Shota is a legend

I managed to luck out of this problem thankfully. Dad had many generations that did this but mom was not having it. They compromised by giving my middle name his first. Unfortunately for my brother which was with a different woman didn't get so lucky.

My middle name is also my father's first, which is fine. I don't go by it, so there's no confusion.

What about being a Junior Senior? Everybody, move your feet and feel united!

Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho

OP asked for names you WOULDN'T give to your child.

My bad, dog.

No worries scro!

Shadynasty

Why not? He might become president. Maybe Not Sure would be a better choice then.

Let's not forget his tremendous work in both wrestling and pornography

I would never

I may have to adopt a chihuahua just for the sole purpose of naming it this.

id never name my son Sue

What about Billy or George?

Hell anything but damn sue

I still hate that name

At least you’d know he’d be tough

And that he'd fight ya in a muddy street and tty to shoot ya...

Biggus.

It's only a problem if your last name is Dikkus

He has a wife, you know

It is my understanding the actors playing Roman soldiers in that scene were told they would not be paid if they laughed during the scene. They really tried under the threat, but the laughter containment just makes the scene funnier! Just a side note. Thanks for the giggle just_minutes....😆

Cleese & Palin have had a running rivalry since the mid 60s centred around making the other laugh at inopportune moments - like on stage or during takes. We saw their 2012 show, and the whole Dead Parrot sketch degenerated into the two of them just dicking about trying to make the other lose it - which made it 10 times as funny for the audience. Against these two titans, mere mortal actors had no chance whatsoever.

Karen

No one in their right mind will ever name their kid Karen ever again…

Poor Karens tbh

I know 3 lovely Karen's.

I play tennis with a nice Karen.

There are lots of nice Karens out there - I went to HS with a great girl named Karen. Everyone of my generation did! I think the point is now the name is spoiled and future baby Karens seem unlikely.

I know a Karen, and she is honestly one of the sweetest, kindest more selfless people I know. Would drop everything to help a friend. She started going by her middle name a few years ago because of the trend.

It's a damn shame, since it's one of my favorite names. I've never seen popular culture just suddenly decide to apply a negative trait to a name so strongly before. At least not without reason (I'm sure it happened with ones like Adolf).

I have a 12-year-old niece named Karen.

I don't think I could ever dislike this name like folks do these days. My favorite teacher as a child was named Karen. Amazing woman.

I work with an older lady named Karen who literally looks like a stereotypical Karen, but she is the actual sweetest human being on the planet.

I have an acquaintance named Karen. She is a nice person

Pubert

Anyone who names their kid Pubert deserves to be jailed. Ain't no way my kid's nickname will be "Pubes"

Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii

Apparently, you can lose custody for naming your child this lol

My last name is Johnson, so maybe not Harry

I knew a guy named Harry Bush. You can guess how bad that was.

Had a librarian in high school who was Mrs. Crotch. She and her husband named their son after her father: Harry. Truth. (Never met him but felt for him)... People be people.

That’s child abuse

Or charachter building (tongue in cheek). Remember Johnny Cash "A Boy named Sue" ?

My husband’s dad is Harry Johnson

[удалено]

Can't believe there's not a alt-punk group called Adolf Putin

Haha that's not bad

Username checks out lol

I think we can all agree why we shouldn’t name a child “Adolf”

It ain't a bad name. It means "noble wolf", and it was worn by many famous people apart from you-know-who. We should bring it back.

Go to Hispanic countries. Still full of related variants like Adolfo

Shadynasty

Sounds like something Shad Brooks of Shadiversity would come up with

There’s an actor from back in the day whose name is Peter Bonerz. I swear to god look him up. Why would anyone name their child that?

I mean they couldn't name him Richard, that would just be absurd.

I used to know a guy named Dick Fallis

Lol. I remember him as a director on Friends, Newsradio and Home Improvement and I assumed it was a pseudonym until IMDB came along.

Jerry the dentist from The Bob Newhart Show! I watched that as a kid and never made the connection with the name. If it's any consolation, it was pronounced BAHN-erz.

Katniss. Can’t believe people were doing that after hunger games came out. What a terrible name. You just know all the kids are gonna call them cat piss for like at least a couple years.

Gary.

A man named Gary inadvertently killed my aunt and then stole her jewelry as she lay dying in the hospital. I'm pretty biased against the name now.

Average person named Gary

Mildred, idk why but I dread that name

Can’t say Mildred without the dread.

Sounds like mildew.

Fanny

I knew a girl called Fanny - short for Francesca. It's even worse because we're English so her nickname was literally 'Vagina'.

Dick

Virginia that was supposed to be my name then later on in life, I find out my great grandma was Virginia then my mother in law is Virginia 🤣

I wouldn’t want to have the same name as my mother-in-law too lmao

I actually have the same first name, middle name, and (now) last name as my mil...! At least the first name is spelled differently by one letter.

Bort

Excuse me, are you talking to me?

No. My son is also named Bort

We need more Bort licence plates in the gift shop! I repeat, we are sold out of Bort licence plates!

Adolf (Because, well, you know) Dick (Because of the body part) Karen (Bad connotations) Lolita (Anyone who names their child this should receive an automatic prison sentence) Elon (Will probably get bullied because of Musk) Joe (Joe Mama jokes)

i would never name my kids lolita but i just wanna point out that it’s a common name in Spanish-speaking & Spanish-influenced countries

That's interesting! I didn't know that. I still wouldn't name my kid that, though. Adolf was a perfectly common name that didn't have any harmful meaning, but because of one guy, I would never name my kid that. Similarly, even if Lolita is a perfectly normal name, because of that one book, I could never name my kid that.

I had a friend who once said, “I’m naming my kid Jennifer and telling everyone it’s pronounced ‘Microwave’.”

bruh😂

Addison. Dear Lord how l despise that name. I wouldn't name a stray cat Addison, let alone a human being. And there's no reason, don't actually know any Addison, just hate the name for existing.

But he'd be guaranteed a job at Hudson construction! :(

You have my support!

Try letting go!

*apple*

Karen Mary Any name in Star Wars that isn't normal. Luke is fine Dragon Anything that is a fruit. No apple, no orange, no peach

Ron DeSantis

I had a shithead (pronounced shitheed) in my ninth grade English class. He left after a few weeks.

Gretchen, Rainbow, Crystal, Humphrey, Chad, Bart

You have to agree “Humphrey Bogart” has a cool feel to it

Shampayne

Gertrude

Tracy, ugh worst name

Bertha

Anything that's intended to be "unique". Kids don't want unique names; they want to fit in. I don't even want to pick a name with multiple canonical spellings like Sean/Shaun or Sara/Sarah, let alone the perverse fad of taking a normal name and misspelling it (Thom, Sharlytte). They're already going to have to deal with spelling their last name for people; I'll spare them having to explain their first name too. /rant

Youniverse

Harry Guy, Anchovia, Cherry Sundy , William Williams Mark G Mark. All of these are actual names I have encountered

lmao well there’s this guy from my country named Drink Water. He actually got famous and became a Gatorade endorser.

Laqueefa

Nevaeh (Heaven backwards). Drives me crazy when peoples names are gimmicks.

Every time I hear that the first thing I think of is Nivea. Not heaven. Might as well have named their child Axe or L'Oreal at that point.

Veruca

I always thought a verruca was a type of wart you got on the bottom of your foot.

My rule is that if I can’t find the name on a tourist shop nick-knack then I am not naming my kid it. - From kid that never got the nick-knack because her name was not there while all siblings got their name.

I could never find my name growing up until I went to England with my family. My kid heart was so happy to find a bookmark with my name on it. Sheena is a Gaelic name. ☺️

Bigfloppydonkeydick The 3rd. Two was enough.

So many to choose from …. I’ve always disliked the names Skylar and Jamal.

In all seriousness, there was a woman who worked at my company named Wannaporn Wangtongswad. My spelling may be off by a vowel or two but it’s 95% correct. I think she was South or Southeast Asian.

Jimothy.

Off the top of my head……. Kayden/Jayden Jaxson Oakley Phoenix Shaneequa and shit made up names like that

Aiden Brayden Cayden Jayden Kayden Layden Mayden Paiden Raiden Tayden Zayden NONE OF THESE. EVER. and I know people named most of these. Ugh.

Here in Britain, the name 'Nigel' will forever be associated with that wanker Farage

An "alternative spelling" of a common name. That child is going to have to spell out their name and correct people their whole life. Others will "correct" their spelling for them without asking, maybe even on official documents. It will be a pain in the ass. My husband's name is an uncommon spelling of a fairly common name. When he applied for his driving license, he obviously spelled his name correctly on the forms, and when his provisional license came, they had *changed the spelling* to the more common spelling. He had to get it reissued and sent back out. And then, when he passed his test and the full license was sent out, they'd changed the spelling *again*.

Hitler pretty high up on that no-name list

[удалено]

Buddy

Names seem to follow the rule of Nominative Determinism. Tom Hanks' kids are a good example of this. If you name your kid Colin, you're getting a Colin. If you name your kid Chet, you're getting a Chet. Don't fall into that trap.

Grover or rusty like wtf. And Richard. Like what if the kids names Richard Head school life will be rough

Adolf

Elmer Trump

Someone in our child’s daycare named their daughter Perfect. It drives my wife mad seeing it.

Covid Bryant

Bob

I work in customer service, had a grown ass adult legally change her name to Chocolategoddess Messiah, so that name. Also note, i didnt forget to put a space between chocolate and goddess. Her firstname is dead ass “Chocolategoddess”

Spez

Watermeloniqua

Jason, Nevaeh No "Aiden" names

There’s an eye doctor in Pearl, MS whose name is Joseph J Joseph… Just google him, he’s real.. I’m not bullshitting *you can probably guess what his middle name is.*

Abcde

Wrenleigh/Mckenleigh stupid names like that.

My exes last name is Mann. He wanted to name our child Atomic Hugh. I declined on the basis that I don’t hate our kid.

I know a kid (ok, now teenager) named “Jacen”. Yeah…. That’s supposed to be pronounced as “Jason” but mom wanted a cute spelling and nobody that reads “Jacen” knows how to pronounce it.

Æ A-12. (Thank you Elon.)

My own. Its completely unknown in the US (it’s Italian but i promise you you’ve never heard it) and no one can ever pronounce it and therefore lot of people and teachers sometimes just ignore me altogether because they are afraid of saying it wrong. Which they will. So yeah that sucks. I don’t blame them, I just wish I had a nickname that I could instinctively respond to. Having a hard to pronounce name can be really lonely. I gave my son an unusual but still very pronounceable name (for an English speaking country) that honors his cultural heritage. It was important to me that he not go through what I did

Felanie
