So guy is filling out application for his daughter's birth certificate. "Trynity". Woman (sister? girlfriend?) leaning over his shoulder says, "You spelled 'trinity' wrong." Guy: "No, that's how you spell it!" Girl: "Then why is it 'tri-city area'?" Guy: "gently caress."

And the best part is that Trinity is a terrible name no matter how it's spelled.

A girl I know has kids named Triscety and Whylee. I feel like most people are only concerned with their kids having "totes adorbs" names, and don't ever consider there will be grown adults walking around with these horrid names.

Triscety should have been named Whendy. I agree though. They hone in on baby/toddler cuteness (think of the selfies we'll take!!) and don't think about their kid when it reaches the delightful middle school years, or is trying to command authority as an adult with a job. sweeperbravo has a new favorite as of 21:19 on Aug 30, 2015 |

I recently learned that bodybuilder, Gladiator (as in the 90s TV-show) and convicted murderer Virpi Butt changed her name to Lucrezia Butt in prison.

I prefer the freakish names more than the "normal name spelled or pronounced horrifically for 'uniqueness'". Don't make your kids go through their whole life telling everyone they meet that, " it's spelled M-e-s-h-e-l-l" or that, yes, it's spelled Deborah but it's pronounced Deb-OR-ah.

I probably mentioned this before but I met a little girl named Maile. Miley... Even at the age of 6 or 7 you already got the sense she was exhausted about having to correct every new person she met. ![]()

Seriously, this thread makes me feel justified in spending several weeks before my son's birth basically being Nicholas Cage in that one old SNL sketch, trying to figure out how to taunt every potential name for my son...

Storm Large is a dumb name but she's cool... I guess? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5U-YT-mRmI (I just realized that she filmed this in my town. Neat.)
