What is one name....

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

lets say that you could name your child any outrageous name you wanted without any judgement or ridicule. What would it be? boy or girl. I would name a girl Adelaide or Ramona. But i really couldnt because then they would call her mona and i hate that.

My basic qusetion is this: what incredibly outlandish name do you love, but could never really name a child. You could never name the child this because it weird or you would get a horrible nicname or your SO would leave because the name was so weird.For example, My sister is named Alison ( thats right only 1 L)
the day she was born my mom vowed that noone would ever call her Al , guess what we call her. Wow ! good guess, we call her Al:D :stuck_out_tongue: :mad: ;j ;j

I’ve always loved Spanish names, in particular Guillermo (William), Javier (Xavier) and Magdalena. However, my surname is very obviously Irish and that just wouldn’t be a nice thing to do to a kid.

3

I know what you mean. I always liked those kinda names too , but they just wouldnt match the last name

4

i would just like to add one more name to mine. Vincenzo
Yeah Baby!

5

I’ve always been fond of Gideon, although its not really wierd, just more uncommon I guess.

6

Avril Delaney and Brandi Elaine.

Those will be my girls.

Austin Rayne and Colin Drayco.

Boy names.

But I want 6 kids, so I’ll have to think of the rest later.

7

I forgot all about Gideon! I love that name. ikmagine my little twins, one boy and one girl… Adelaide and Gideon.

That could possibly never happen

8

Osama.

9

I love the girls’ names Villanelle and Maighread. I think they are poetic and beautiful. However, combining them with my boring, gravelly last name would just degrade them.

10

I’ve always liked Violet for a girl, I think Vi makes a great nickname, but it always makes me think of the girl from Charlie Brown.

11

Call me crazy but I also love the name Tucker Lewis.

Could call him Tuck for short :slight_smile:

Another girl name?

Lizzie (NOT Elizabeth)

12

I know a guy who is hispanic and wants to name his child Sussio (I think that is the right spelling), but while the name sounds very nice the translation of Sussio is literally “dirty.” Dirty. Dirty, as in not clean. And to us non-spanish speakers we would never know.

Okay I’m gonna steal one from indigo. Ophelia , And I want Alexandria. ( not Alexandra

15

I’ve loved the names Anjelica and Angelique forever. I suppose they’re not incredibly outlandish but they’re not very common either.

I despise being called “Al”. My dad called me that for years until I finally told him to quit it. He didn’t realize it bugged me so much. Everyone knows not to call me that now. With any new people I meet, the first time they call me Al is the last!

16

You should feel lucky. My sister got stuck with more nicnames then i can remember. Care to see if i can? There was…

Ali
Al
Alidoo
Muffy
Sissy
And so on… Please dont ask about the muffy thing

I am kind of fond of some of the stranger Brazilian names. If these names weren’t completely unpronouncable for most Europeans, I’d go with some of these names:

Boys:
Odivaldo (pronounced oh-gee-VOW-doo)
Erivelton (pronounced eh-ree-VEL-toh, with kind of a nasal ending)
Thiago (pronounced chee-AH-goo)
Reinaldo (pronounced hey-NOW-doo)

Girls:
Aparecida (pronounced ah-pah-ray-SEE-dah)
Giselle (pronunced she-SEL-ee)
Iracema (prononced ee-rah-SEE-mah)
