A few days ago, I was bored…not having any idea what to do, I began Googling random phrases. Before I realised it, I Googled the phrase “worst baby name”. No, it was NOT because I am getting broody and longing to have kids of my own, I just thought that there definitely must be some shockers out there. And I definitely was entertained! Here are some interesting ones that I found.

1. A boy named Urhines Kendall Icy Eight Special K. Urhines is pronounced as “Your Highness”. Another baby was called Yamajesty. I suppose their parents really wanted to be part of the royalty!
2. Someone posted on Yahoo Answers that her surname was Green. When she was born, her father wanted to name her Winter, making her name WinterGreen. I think her mum objected vehemently, so luckily for her, that idea was scrapped. Hehe…and when her sister was born, the father joked about naming the sister Gang, making it GangGreen. Talk about corny names!
3. Baby named ‘ABCDE’ pronounced ‘Absidee’. I bet no one will ever get the pronunciation right the first time, poor kid, he / she will probably be teased all through school, if not the rest of his / her life!

I think one of the unfortunate things about being in a business line where you meet lots of people is that they all have different names. I used to think some names were quite nice, until I met annoying clients with those names. Now, every time I think of those names, I get chills down my spine. It’s going to be tough coming up with original names that I still like, unless I go for something SUPER original…like..Eaton Seamen?
