This blog was made to call attention to the ridiculous names that parents are bestowing upon their children. The names come from on line web nurseries and announcements. Don't e-mail me or send me comments about how your kid named Tadym, Kaydyn, Karsynn were named after dead or dying relatives. I don't buy it and even if it were true the names are still awful and shouldn't be used. Your crappy names are not unique. I've seen all these names used more than once.

Place Names
I recently saw the name Jersey for a girl on a web nursery site. The baby's Mother's name was Nebraska! Nebraska? Really? What is appealing about Nebraska as a name? Nebraska actually isn't the worst place name I've heard of. How about Alaska? Saw that one on a girl. Other odd place names I've heard of on actual people: Malaysia, Egypt, Texas, Kansas, Ontario, Montreal, Manhattan, California, Tallahassee, Montgomery, and Minnesota. These names might not be as bad as say a Sir'Robert or Heavenlee but I wouldn't want to go through life named after a random place. I don't mind place names like Georgia which is an actual name being a female form of George. It could still be annoying though to be named after a place. I bet the jokes get old fast.
Jane, I 100% agree with you. Some people need to visit your blogs before they name their children. Normal is so much better than the crap people have been giving their children. If I hear another -aden name or stupid spelling, I'm going to explode.
