Brayden, Braxton, Bentley, Aiden, Axel, Keith.
What’s wrong with Axel?Ugh, no! Brayden is fine. Breighden is the problem.
Brayden is a problem. Breighden is a tragedeigh.
Treighgeighdeigh
You might dislike those names, but there nothing really wrong with their spellings.
Axel is the normal spelling around here (Switzerland), so I’m interested what you would have expected instead? Aksel?
Maybe it’s Excel
Brayden, Hayden, jayden, tayden, kayden, rayden, shayden, cayden, pretty much the whole alphabet ending in den. And yes I met every single one of these
None of those are bad. It’s when it’s when it’s like Breighleigh or stuff that it’s bad.
Welp found taydens mom
I have no interest in having children, and if I did I wouldn’t name them Tayden, but if somehow both of those things were true, I certainly wouldn’t spell it Teighden.
Breighden.
Most of these are normal names tf 💀
Toneigh 🐴🐴🐴. As in Toni or Tony.
Ptoughneigh
Brothers with Phteven
Full name, Toneigh Lynne Groan.
Jewelee (Julie) because they wanted Jewel in there I guess
Once had a friend who said she had 3 middle names. Then she said what I thought I heard as Julianne. I thought she was joking and laughed at her joke.
Then she got mad, called me stupid, then clarified that her 3 middle names were Jewel Lee Ann.
I still thought she was joking. She was not.
I have a friend with three middle names too but he seemed used to people being confused and just told me where they came from.
Why did I read this in Chris-Chans voice??? Why am I this brainrotted?
It sounds like theres two people named Ellie. One of whom is Jewish.
And they decided to distinguish her by calling her Jew Ellie.
Ah the original working name for the villain of 101 Damnations. Jew Ellie DeVille. That was Walt’s contribution.
Even Jewelie would have been better despite being atrocious on its own
Jewel is a perfectly fine name on its own, wtf
“Breighdone” (Brayden) is probably the most egregious one I haven’t brain-bleached yet.
My friend works in the billing department of a local hospital, and she will occasionally text me some crazy spellings she comes across.
yeah that’s literally a HIPAA violation lol
esp if the spelling is that unique, it’s definitely identifying info
Nothing could be worse than X Æ A-12.
There are a lot of reasons why musk should be (and soon enough will be) jailed, this is one of them. This is child abuse, literally
In the USA, rich people are quite obviously above the law, so no, I don’t think he will.
What makes you so confident?
Yeah that dude is obsessed with x. He slaps it everywhere he can
That’s what happens when you prevent your kid from exploring X sites till your adulthood
That is like a grandma reading a hash out loud
…what kinda hash?
Brownie
Hashashin, get stabbed loser.
Why did I read that in Napoleon Dynamite’s voice?
I’m now thinking of that classic post from the old site that shows someone’s painstakingly cursive-written note of the entire text of a bluescreen (the old bluescreen with a lot of characters on screen) for tech support.
And thinking of a slightly more tech inclined grandma who doesn’t quite get all of it having a problem with a torrent and just reading the infohash/magnet link to the ISP’s support call center.
For once I’m on the cop’s side.
I knew a guy once whose last name was “EA.” Two capital letters. He pronounced it “Yeah.” His first name was Rodrake.
I guess it wasnt in the name afterall
(Is it “ea sports its in the game or name”?)
Wasn’t it, EA sports, it’s in the lame?
EA Sports. It’s the same game you bought last year with slightly updated graphics and rosters, but a whole new set of DLC to buy.
E. A. Sports. It’s just the same.
E A Sports, its in the blame!
Abcde (pronounced AB-sid-ee) was certainly memorable if nothing else.
I’ve seen this name also in the wild. Girl was pretty fat too. Poor kid.
I remember reading an article about an airport staff person ( possibly TSA? ) laughing about a little girls name. Same exact name. Crazy stuff that any parent could start their children at square -3 upon being born.
Reminds me of that kids book CDB
Oh dear lord no
I fully came in here with this name in mind. Lol in the 10 years since I’ve first heard it, I’ve never come across anyone else who has heard the same. I somehow hope we’re all running into the same Abcde and there aren’t just hordes of them out there.
A-aron?
Better than bl-ake
Jay Quellin? Dee-nice?
Dammit, now I’m subconsciously pronouncing the dash with all these names.
I’ve encountered a lot of the reverse of this. Danielle pronounced “Dah Nell”. Brittany pronounced “Brih Tanny”. Jonathan pronounced “Joe Nathan”.
Jonathan pronounced “Joe Nathan”
I would call that fucker Jonah-T-Han purely out of spite.
There was also a “Jathan” and it wath tho hard to thay hith name without thlipping into a lithp.
Not so much the spelling, just… I went to school with a girl who’s father fled the law and they ended up near us in Canada… they were originally from a trailer park in Tennessee
Her name was “Dollarina”
Literally the “why did mum name me Rose” meme.
That name is a trajideh.
Dollarina Cappocino
Hopefully she didn’t become a prostitute
I once met a girl called “Xinhergi” (Synergy).
This has to be a muskspawn.
I once met a girl called Xinhergi
Who thrived on late-night energy.
She’d moan and she’d grind,
With a very keen mind
For positions defying liturgy.
Looks like its the name of a Daedric lord or something.
You are thinking about Xivilai from Oblivion, not lords, but daedric dudes who don’t hold tneir punches.
Daedric lord of soul crushing corporate vocabulary.
I haven’t met any one with a terribly spelt name but one girl I worked with was named America. Weird as hell if you ask me
There was a player on Big Brother named America, which was a tiny bit confusing because the show routinely refers to the audience as America
Is it that uncommon?
Dont know. But its weird as hell
I know a Paris, a Virginia, and a Georgia, just off the top of my head. Location names are weird, but not unheard of.
Those were all human names first. Places named after people, not the other way around.
I was briefly married to a Georgia, but the family wasn’t Southern. The fathers name was George and that is also what he named his first son, so his first daughter was Georgia.
Never have understood the phenomenon of fathers passing down their name, you’ve already cursed your child with the family name, why make things harder on the poor whelp?
Vanity isn’t it? Pathetic male vanity. Never hear women doing it do you.
I know plenty of women that carry an old school second name because there grandmother’s names are passed down. Like Elisabeth, or Rose or the like.
You must be able to see that giving your daughter your mother’s name as a middle name is not at all the same as giving your son your own name?
The names were first. The locations are named after names.
Even America was a name first.
Many people are named after places. This one doesn’t feel weird to me atleast
Yup, I’ve known a Kenya, a Lesotho, and a Latierra (the Earth in Spanish).
Latierra
If I had to bully her I’d call her Latrine
But which America is it? North or south?
They compromised and it’s central.
Most places are named after people too
I also had a coworker named America and I’m pretty sure her parents were immigrants - English was pretty clearly not my coworker’s first language. I think it works for her situation. (Funny enough, it was her reckless behavior that caused me to spend my last few weeks at that job on light duty…)
There’s also America Ferrera, I don’t think the name is that weird.
I understand naming a kid after a city or region/state but a country seems a little far.
Never knew anyone with a weird spelling but I knew a dude who had the unfortunate name of Harry Butt. Already bad enough your family name is “Butt” but his parents did him hella dirty naming him Harry.
Was always funny getting a sub thinking he was just fucking with them tho.
Butt is actually a common Kashmiri last name. If he was from India/ Pakistan that night make sense
