Sucks. Dad's name is Bibiano, so they went for the jr female version. Just doesn't roll off the tougue. She'll end up with the nickname Beebee, like her dad.Latino?

Well, hard to stick that one on the list then. If it was non-ethnic parents trying to give their kid an ethnic name (see all the stupid Irish names) then maybe.And I happen to like the name Viviana. Maybe suggest Liliana... similar but different.LatinoLatino? Italian?What's wrong with Viviana?Friend of my wife is expecting. Gonna call her Viviana. Please add to list of stupid names. TIA.Sucks.

Love that name Liliana. I am Latino (so is wife), and we named all our children Latino names. Unfortunately, my wife's best friend beat us to the name Liliana and we couldn't just copy her, could we? I love it because it can stand on it's own or be separate, Lily or Ana. But beautiful name together.Well, hard to stick that one on the list then.

Not to get too sidetracked... but is the dad's name Bibiano or Viviano? I've never understood the interchangeable v and b, and based on the way I've seen latinos spell things, I'm not sure they do either.Love that name Liliana.

I've seen it mostly spelled Viviano. But this friend of ours is called Bibiano, and he gets his name from his Grandpa, but I think his lineage has roots from Italy.Not to get too sidetracked... but is the dad's name Bibiano or Viviano?

And just think how much more excitement they will get watching Blues Clues as a kid!!!I heard that this morning and thought to myself "Blue is kindof a cool name".Blue Ivy![]()
We've got a girl named Blue in the neighborhood. I like it... a little. Nah. Take it back. Always felt like punching her when calling out her name.Blue is an awesome name
It's another word that ends with "ay"my name is Andrew. yay or nay?
j/k... if we'd have had a 4th son, we would have named him Andrew (Drew... NOT Andy)For a coonhound.Blue is an awesome name
Correct. If you want to call your kid Jack, which is a nickname, not a name, you name him John and then call him Jack.By this logic, Jack isn't acceptable. However, Malachy, Kessog, Praejectus, and Yrieix are ok.My family's rule is if there is a saint with that name, you can use it. Otherwise GTFO.![]()
Borderline alert. We named out son the following-Knox
What was wrong with Andrew Jr.?Nothing borderline about it.Borderline alert. We named out son the following-Knox

WTF is wrong with Miles?Spinoff of the Baby Names thread. For some reason, people giving their kids stupid names is one of my all-time pet peeves. It's like a pet elephant peeve. I can't stand it, and I don't understand why people do it. I reaize there have always been trends in naming kids, but when did the trends start including preppy or made up stupid names (I'm excluding African American names from that question)?
Slightly less annoying is coming up with some new way to spell a name. For example, I've traditionally seen it spelled Megan, Meagan, or Meghan... so my buddy and his wife combined them all and named their girl Meaghan. Nothing like a couple extra letters for effect.
So if I get enough posts, I'll keep a running list. Any of you expectant fathers, check in here from time to time. If you see a name on the list below, DO NOT GIVE IT TO YOUR CHILD.

If our next kid is a girl we're naming her RebeKa. Or maybe ThraKattaK.Prog rock humor is the next big thing in comedy, BTW, guys. Just an FYI.We're considering King Crimson for our new one.One of the kids playing with my daughter this morning was named Genesis. At least you could shorten that to Jen or Jenny I guess.

Brighton - I like that oneA guy at work and his wife chose the following names: Brighton for a boy and Rebecca for a girl.Thankfully, they had a girl.
Too preppy.
You do realize this is a centuries-old name that has been passed down in just about every Irish family ever, right?The practice of giving is to non-Irish children renders it a stupid name.Too preppy.You do realize this is a centuries-old name that has been passed down in just about every Irish family ever, right?

This is a very popular name these daysWork in a hospital but the dumbest name I've seen yet is La-a.
Why should I? It's a traditional, but still unique name that pays tribute to the greatest man I have ever known. I still bet you have a stupid name.Turn the page. Break the chain.

Learn something new everyday I guess then. A co-worker of mine is calling her kid Ta,.This is a very popular name these daysWork in a hospital but the dumbest name I've seen yet is La-a.
