Saint Ren 4,272 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I'm at an age where half my friends have their shit together and are having babies and the other half can't find a clean t-shirt to wear for work in the morning. 3 of my friends have had kids and are aged 25+ They've named their children, Caesar, Fox and Finlay. It's 2 boys and a girl, can you guess their genders based on their name? Another friend is now having twin boys and is calling them Romeo and Paris. I've never once remarked on the names and have only said congrats, how nice but mentally, I'm like WTF. I thought it was just my friends but I went to a toddler group with Caesar and his/her parent and I got to meet Lysander, Diesel and Snow. (Snow was inspired by the Hunger Games) So it seems like everyone has gone a little mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Ren 4,272 Posted January 20, 2018 Author Share Posted January 20, 2018 Imagine having a creature grow in your body for 9 months and pushing it out of your body in intense pain to name it Fox I suppose when you go through all that, you're going to go with the name you want, regardless of how silly it sounds to other people, but it's a tragic name. Wait till someone names their son Sasuke. Someone will and I will freak out if I ever meet them. I met a Goku once and I was shook. The poor boy clearly had to deal with reactions like mine for years, because he was like, "yes, yes, I'm named after that show" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FARRAH 665 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Snow is cute. I know a Snow and he's the cutest little thing eve It's just parents wanting "unique" (i guess) names for their babies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chae(forever)young 782 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Malaria? Poor kid. Yeah...I don't know if it was true or not, but I would hear her name come up in convos and the kids would act like it's normal. I've never met or seen her before because my school was quite big, but I can only imagine the how hard it must have been growing up. Then my friend told me about a friend SHE has whose nickname is Bola because her full name is too hard to pronounce apparently, and when the whole "Ebola Crisis" started up it was bad....

Lysander's cool too. Though I am a biased history nerd The other names though There was a girl in the 9th grade called Malaria and now there's a kid I know called Tregg Malaria? Really? What were the parents thinking. I come across strange names at work. Middle aged people name Princess, Blessed, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paris & Romeo I just don't get. I guess the middle aged people had hippy parents from the 70's, I know a Rain who's like 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full Sun 4,656 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I know someone who named their kid Naruto I think i've read about that. I love Naruto, but you won't see me name my children after him. There are so many unique names, but you decide on naming your kid after an anime character, lmao.

Solarbeam 2,298 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Trying to be unique which is not bad, but the names they come up with to achieve with is just... I still remember that girl whose mother named her KVIIItlyn (Kaitlyn) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6Kings 680 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I can deal with Caesar since that's actually a normal name (though I guess it would be more common in Italy?) and Romeo is decent, but I can't help but shake my head at names like Fox and Snow Paris is fine, but to me it's more a girl's name than a boy's...

WenSuelRene 5,627 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I thought it was just my friends but I went to a toddler group with Caesar and his/her parent and I got to meet Lysander, Diesel and Snow. (Snow was inspired by the Hunger Games) One of my cousins is pregnant and she told us the names she had planned out depending on the gender. She said she would have named her snow if it was a girl. I was hoping and praying that it was gonna be a boy just so she wouldn't be able to name the baby Snow and thankfully she had the gender reveal party a month ago where she said it would be a boy and I was so happy, lol. Sadly, the boy's name is also weird, but at least it's not snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
