Bad baby names

It makes me orders of magnitude worse :smack:.

Where I work, I once saw a baby that had no less than 10 names before her last name. All I could think of was how she would hate filling in forms when she got older…

Any nonstandard spelling of a common name, or any name commonly associated (correctly or otherwise) with belonging to a lower-income community. Similarly, any “unique” name. Employers tend to reject resumes with such at higher rates than baseline.

Nahlige. Pronounced like knowledge.

At my job I get so frustrated with the unique names. I’ll ask someone’s name and they say “Nahlige.” Pause, with me waiting for a spelling. No spelling. “Okay, can spell your name for me?” Big sigh like I’m a moron. “N-A-H…”

Those of us with more than the standard F/M/L usually just fill out the first, second and last.

(Glad my folks didn’t go to that extreme though)
