You Named Me What?!

The other day I happened past a sale at an outlet store. They had a bunch of assorted stuff in bins that had various embroidered names on them (from special orders that didn’t go through for whatever reason). I decided to rummage through the bins to see if they happened to have anything with my son’s name embroidered on it. As I went through it, I came across a little pink backpack with name “Aryan” embroidered on it.  What were her parents thinking? (Hopefully that little Aryan had a more fortunate last name than this little Aryan.)

What are some of the worst baby names you’ve come across?

    Hi, I came over via Summer’s blog – welcome. I used to dislike Madona’s daughter’s name – Lortus – but I guess I’ve gotten used to it (?). It is a more common than I realized. And I don’t like that Julia Roberts named her daughter Hazel (I had a grandmother named Hazel) – of all the beautiful girl names, I just don’t think Hazel is one of them – that’s just me (hope your name is not Hazel, if so, sorry). See ya.

    OK, so I knew a guy in a student ward named Aryan… When I first met him I was stunned. Seriously?! What were his parents thinking! I can’t believe somebody else would do that!

    As for the Museum at the Gateway, your 2 1/2 year old would love it. It’s pretty basic. They have enough young stuff to keep him going for a while. It’s a little pricey for what they offer (I think) but on a cold day when you’ve run out of things to do, who cares!

    Yes, well my personal favorite worst name is Melena (which, in medical terms, is bloody feces)…yup, just gross

    I overheard some ubermamas in a coffee shop talking about a kid named “tigerlily.” I swear I’m not making that up.
