What are the dumbest names people’s parents cursed them with?

[Ibanez RG 350EX]

That reminds me of something, last year I saw a guy on Facebook who named his daughter "Annika" - like Darth Vader (Anakin).

The fact that you made this assumption about a totally ordinary name says way more about you than the parents.

Gender neutral names are gay it's like asking for your kid to be trans.

Some stupid spic reality show my grandparents watched recently had a woman in it named Manelyk. Every single time I heard her name I'd get agitated and think "Who fucking names their kid something like that?"

Considering the guy had Star Wars stuff all over his social media (including using the same Star Wars reference username on multiple sites), you're clearly incorrect. Would like to note he was a fan of Vader and someone in his comments section of a video he took of his daughter pointed it out as well.

Also consider the guy was a Reddit bugman stereotype in more ways than one.

@Drive-By Comment the guy wasn't a Finn, he was an atheist Ashkenazi Jew.

I was in the military with a guy named Clay C. Clay III.

The "C" stood for Clay.

Was the 'III' a reference to C like Q is 17?

No. Both his father and grandfather were named Clay Clay Clay.

Slight powerlevel, but I used to take school photos and the most frustrating shit ever is when kids have common names that are spelled in the most unnecessarily retarded ways imaginable. There's is no reason to put your child through a lifetime of confusing and awkward encounters because you had to spell her name as "Xoi" instead of "Zoey".

Years ago I worked with a girl called Corriander, she was a wee bitch lol.
Few months ago I was walking by the paediatric clinic, and was accosted by a gorgeous wee baby boy called Thor, and yep dad was a fan of the movies.
My secret shame was I was going to call my second son Kyle, this was when South Park first came out, but I did change my mind to something more Scottish and traditional

 

[PuffMacMuffin]

Skyler and Toby. I have never wanted to punch anyone more, than people with those names.

My girlfriend works with a girl named Cyan, as in the color. No deeper meaning, she's just named after a (imo ugly) color.

I hate all overly black names, it was cooler when they named their kids after historical figures like Darius.

A kid in my Pre-K class was named Hobby

I have a customer who's name is Ivana Panic.

I went to high school with a black girl named Cyan. Darius does sound good, though.

My late primary school headteacher once told us about a headteacher in a different city named Ivor (birth name apparently). His surname was Tool or Toole, and I forget the middle name, but it was something like Hugh (whatever it was, it made the joke).

Every letter from the school (always physical letters back then) would have had his name signed on it.

 

[Rome's rightful successor]

When I was in the first grade, a somalian girl in the class had the name Faduun, it was pronounced exactly as "Fart-tune".

 

[Backinpogform]

I knew a guy whose first and middle names were Bondi Obi-wan.

Edited for spelling

 

[Premium Gonzo]

I went to a kid with school years ago his name was Brixton, that kid was a massive cunt and i kicked him in the balls off the slipper dip when he was mean to me.

Ran into a young girl working in a retail situation named Kiama, for the non Australians. Kiama is a suburb in the south coast of new south wales and as bogan (hilly billy) as it gets to call your kid that is like cursing them on another level.

I used to work with a guy whose parents named him Ziahn. I guess they just wanted to phonetically spell Zion.
