I have to say, my favorite bad name is Lemonjello. Pronounced le-MON-jalo.

I know this makes me sound racist, but I didn’t need to see a picture of the kid to know what nationality the parents were…

hey, don’t forget orangello! (o-RON-gel-o) thats pretty close to lemonjello.
really, if these children grow up to murder their parents, i think it should be seem as perfectly justified and punishment should be waived.

you could always name your kids winner and loser and see how their lives turn out

OK, “Urhines Kendall Icy Eight Special K” totally sounds like an entrant in the Westminster Dog Show.

He’s like 4 years old already! jeez. He’s been famous a long time now. http://www.bigbadbabynames.com is a great place to keep up with the badly named.

saw a video where there was this blind kid that could navigate around stuff by making clicking noises with his tongue (like bats) and when they referred to his mother they said her name was aquanetta! must be a reference to aquanet hairspray.

I agree with the above two, the parents should have their child naming privileges revoked. The state should give the child a normal name. Seriously, that name won’t fit on an ACT form (not that the kid is gonna take the ACT’s anyway)

Is Special K a drug? In England it’s a type of cereal! I think it’s more funny that a child would be named after a cereal than a drug… I do know someone called Ectasy…:D

Urhines? I’m getting old. I thought it was pronounced “yooreens” — rhymes with urine. Awful name either way.

I think that’s pretty bold assuming it’s someone black (screw PC, it’s all about context - and why the quotation marks?), as I immediately thought of some retarded white couple who’d been on the rave scene just that little bit too long - including the reference to ‘ice’!

My wife is a nurse on an OB/Labor & Delivery floor, and has lots of stories of stupid baby names. My favorite was a woman who wanted to name her baby girl “Vag*na”. Had no idea that it referred to a part of the female anatomy, and was sorely disappointed when she realized why she couldn’t/shouldn’t use it. “I’ve always loved that name!”

Rosi, Special K is a cereal brand, but it’s co-opted as a nickname for ketamine, a drug.
Dave, that’s precious! My sister in law told me about a guy named “Guy.” His last name is also “Guy”. So, he’s “Guy Guy”!

Alex: That “Guy Guy” thing reminds me of a fringe character on the old Mary Tyler Moore show (I think…); his name was Seymour S. Seymour.
“What’s the ‘S’ stand for?”
“Why, Seymour, of course.” -

A friend who worked in the Social Security office saw a child whose name was pronounced Ab-si-dee …. spelled ABCDE. Seriously, he verified the kid’s ID.

Adam, c’mon, stop being so politically correct. Damn. Greg was being honest. I bet if you were to hear a name like chevy or race (yes that name does exist, my mom works with babies and had a couple name their kid race. The last name? Carr., you’d assume that the couple was white, would you not? Greg was not saying anything bad, just the truth. He didn’t say he hated black people, did he? You just blew it all out of proportion. All he said was, and I quote “I didn’t need to see a picture of the kid to know what nationality the parents were…”, which is the absolute truth. How is that filth? Oh no, you don’t want your kids (assuming you have kids) to hear that, next thing you know, they’ll be wearing white caps and shouting bad, bad things, about others. sheesh.

why was race dragged in to this in the first place! Firstly, assuming a particular race would give their children stupid names IS racist! second, when idiots back the first guy up its pathetic! you guys ruined a perfectly funny article!

“Firstly, assuming a particular race would give their children stupid names IS racist”So are you telling me that you would equally believe that the couple that named him was either A.) That middle class 30 something white couple who jogs together before work, and eats organic. and B.) That urban african american couple who does 8 balls and Ice and Keta before work and eats out every night?
Its not race, its culture. AA’s do plenty well in this society, but you have to admit, their culture can hold that back sometimes. The same goes for white trash trailer home families, and drug addicted families. Its the culture and enviroment that people grow up in that influences stupid decisions like this.

“I know this makes me sound racist, but I didn’t need to see a picture of the kid to know what nationality the parents were…”
I don’t particularly find this comment to be racist. Being Black myself, I have personally known some Black folks who’ve really dogged their kids out by naming them strange, difficult to pronounce names. This one really takes the cake though (worst I’ve ever heard). Not leaving out other races, though, Blacks are not the only ones to come up with some really dumb names in the pursuit of “uniqueness”. People should be more considerate of how their child will feel growing up with his/her name.

What makes you so sure that the kid is black. It could be hispanic or it could very well be bi racial with a black father.
So let’s not assume anything and I agree with Maas race should have never been brought in.
If you had seen my daughter when she was born you would have sworn she was asian. Hey I’m Black and I’m proud.

A co-worker named her son Shithead (pronounced shi-th-eed, but spelled, well you get the picture).
I also knew twins named Lemonjello and Orangello.
Another unfortune was a pair of brothers I briefly went to grade school with named Shadingding and Shadangang.
