I came across this site when I was pregnant with Elizabeth and shared it with a few of you. . .Today I was in need of a laugh and found it again, and figured I'd share the love all around:
Baby's Named a Bad, Bad Thing

Kim's sister in law has a daughter named "Kyrie" not like ki-ree-ay, but ky-ree. It sounds like a Japanese man trying to say "Kylie". Anytime Kim mentions her Marni and I say "Ah-so, Kyrie."
She just had another girl and wanted to name her McKinlee Sage.I don't remember what they ended up naming the poor kid, but I know it's horrid. They live in Coalville, apparently everyone there has these awful names.
I'm naming all of my Children Jane and Joe, and numbering from there.
I have a list that I kept from my days at Zerop with horrible names. My favorite was LaQuitta.
Dad and I had planned our kids names as such: Guierllemo,(sp?) Guiseppi, Giovanni, Gepetto & Lou. So figure where you fall in that list and you have your "real" name. Actually, we thought "Alpenglow" was a nice name for Amy, but thought better of it--just too Woodstocky.
I have a list of horrid names that I kept from working at Creative Communications and here are a few, very real, gems:
Paris Francis
Mercedes Binz
Gryffon Dohr (poor kid was even born before Harry Potter came out...bad luck in that case!)
Also, a friend of mine had a friend who worked in the clerk & recorder office found a few gems:
Abcde: pronounced Absidee. Apparently they were worried about her learning to spell her name...
Also a brother and sister from a rodeo-fan family: Justy Cowgirl and Brodeo.
I also thought of a few names that I could do that would be mean to my kids:
Aspen Groves (which I really liked until Holly told me it sounded like a funeral home) and Raven Groves, which sounds like someplace I wouldn't walk through alone at night...
