These 25 Parents Chose Some Extremely Odd Baby Names and We’ve Got Pictures to Prove It

Parents have been choosing offbeat baby names since the beginning of time to the shock of others that encounter them. We have written several lists containing weird, dumb, and just bad baby names. However, many of them have relied on information that has not been verified which means some of the ridiculous appellations could have been fabricated. So, we decided to take a look at a Reddit, as BuzzFeed did, thread that contained pictures with proof of names.

Let us stress that fact is indeed stranger than fiction and you are not going to believe some of the images of these names folks have shared. From inexcusable spellings to pop culture-inspired names, prepare to be in awe of some serious stupidity. We seriously feel bad for these kids! Enjoy!

Thanos Skywalker

We understand that many people love movies from the Marvel and Star Wars franchises but we think things have been taken too far here. Thanos? Skywalker? One is bad enough but a double hit of nerdy pop culture references will not serve this baby well.

Wednesdaigh Adams

The Wednesdaigh spelling of Wednesday is infuriating. Why do new parents love to misspell everything. This name has been inspired by Wednesday Addams (two D’s not one) and the person who chose this name missed on both tries.

Mckelteigh Rayeleighanne and Drawsonne Lintleighmaye

“Love this beautiful portrait of our angles,” a social media caption reads. Then the parent drops these twins unholy names, Mckelteigh Rayeleighanne and Drawsonne Lintleighmaye. These two will be 16-years-old before they learn to spell them correctly. Yikes!

K-VIII-lyn

We are screaming over this one! According to this clipping, these parents always loved the name Kaitlyn but “hated how popular it was.” So, they decided to go with a unique spelling replacing “ait” with Roman numerals to form the number eight. Not gr-VIII!

Jizelle

Gisele is a French name from German “pledge.” The name was made famous by model Gisele Bündchen. We suppose this child’s parents failed to look up how it is spelled as their solution is going to cause a lot of problems when their daughter enters middle school. Giselle is another popular spelling of this name but it was Jizelle that landed on this cursed child’s birth certificate.

Nickalass

Here’s a screen grab of a Domino’s tracker that shows the employee’s name. We certainly hope Nickalass was homeschooled because the teasing would be relentless. What were his parents thinking?

Oaklyn, Lennyx, Lextyn, and Everyx

Come. sweet. death. This person shared her kids’ baby names on social media and they are so terrible that a person responded, “In my country you can’t choose every name for your child for this reason.” What prompted this response? The names Oaklyn, Lennyx, Lextyn, and Everyx. How does each name get even more horrific than the last?

Analiyah

This commenter on social media tried to save a life after stumbling across an’ intended baby name for a daughter. On a onesie, you will find the name Analiyah. “Just check the first 4 letters of her name before she’s born,” the commenter said. We hope the parent(s) heeded this warning.

Joshula

Someone was minding their own business one day, just watching an episode of Say Yes to the Dress when this name jumped out and committed an assault. Joshula Bunch is her name. We hope she takes her partner’s surname.

Rexalyn

This is a screenshot of a file with a person’s client’s name on it. Rexalyn. The parents who chose this baby name ought to be ashamed of themselves. Parents today are slapping Lyn or Lynn after any jumble of letters and calling them names. It’s not right and it’s not okay.

Malibu Barbie

If you’re not an extremely online person you might not know about the character that is Trisha Paytas. To be clear, she is a real person but has a really odd way of navigating the world. She chose the name Malibu Barbie for her daughter. Thoughts and prayers.

Blazeleigh Dayze

We could understand this name being used for a drag queen, in the same style as Laganja Estranja, but as a baby name, it’s not so hot. Do you think the parent(s) might have been enjoying the wacky tobacky when they cooked up this name?

Kharringtyn McKhynleigh Khaybryn

This graduating pre-schooler should have a bright future to look forward to. Sadly, her parent(s) ruined her life by naming her Kharringtyn McKhynleigh Khaybryn. Have mercy!

Pampas, Portabella, Incisor, and… Harold

Make it stop! This mom chose the names Pampas, a type of grass; Portabella, a type of mushroom; Incisor, a tooth; and Harold. Harold really dodged a bullet. This person clearly has a talent for choosing horrible baby names. Unbelievable.

16 and Counting…

Crimes against humanity have been committed by these two parents with seven biological kids and nine adopted ones. There are som pretty normal names in the mix, we assume they were chosen by the adopted children’s biological parents? Of the more “colorful,” uh, ones are PaisLee, NayVee, SaiDee, LiLee, KassaDee, JourNee, and ElleCee. These parents have condemned many souls to hell.

Syrynyty

“Straight from my high school yearbook. not pictured: her older sister named trynyty (not a joke),” a person captioned this image. Syrynyty and Trynyty? Who in this family has a kink for the letter Y? These baby names are wyld!

Kynlieghy

This celebratory birthday sign has been marred by one of the worst baby names on this list. How do you even say the name Kynlieghy? Ken-lye-guy? Ken-lee-ee? People are probably honking for all the wrong reasons.

Mahreahannah

The compound baby name Marianna has been in use since ancient Roman times. This abomination tries but fails to improve on the classic. Mahreahannah just doesn’t roll off the tongue. We feel bad for the name tag the appellation is printed on.

Idea

They must have been fresh out of them. Can you imagine having the name Idea? “What a dumb Idea,” and “Bird-brained Idea,” are two phrases I hope this innocent child never hears.

DeBruh

In case you think that stupid names are a modern trend, we ask you to look at the name DeBruh that belongs to a middle-aged woman from the upper midwest. You good, Bruh?

Kern-Leigh

Meet Kern-Leigh’s Barbie birthday cake. We wish he a happy birthday and that her name never existed. It’s too close to kernel for comfort. Do better, parents.

Mandalorian Michael

No, this Michael is not from Mandalore. At least he is not named Baby Yoda or Grogu. We do however appreciate a bit of alliteration, so there’s that.

Sthefany

We have seen the name Stephanie spelled many ways. There’s Stephani, Stephany, Stephanni, Steffani, etc. Sthefany takes the cake as the dumbest possible option. We hope this Instacart shopper is okay. If you ever book a shopper with a name that is this unfortunate, please tip them well. They need all the help they can get.

Rebel Wilson Et Al.

You might have thought that Rebel Wilson was chosen as the stage name for the Australian actor. It turns out there’s much more to it. Rebel is actually her birth name and her siblings are named Ryot, Annachi, and Liberty. Now we know why she has such an incredible sense of humor!

Loeealtee

Our final bad baby name on this list is Loeealtee which is such a mystery to us we don’t even know how to touch it. Is it supposed to be an elaboration of Loyalty? If so, shame on you, parents. Is it pronounced Low-ee-all-tee? Steeped in stupidity by any metric.

In conclusion, it’s clear that parents are becoming more creative when it comes to naming their children. While some of these names may be seen as odd or even ridiculous, it’s important to remember that the most important thing is that the child is loved and cared for. And who knows, perhaps one day we’ll see some of these strange monikers become the new “normal”. Until then, we’ll be keeping an eye out for any new bizarre baby names that come our way.
