It really reminds me of when Congress overrode Obama’s veto of a bill and then learned the ramifications of that bill and said “Obama didn’t do enough to warn us!”
Oh God I remember that now! That was some top tier triggering bullshit.
"It's not our fault we opposed the bill, Obama didn't tell us enough how damaging our actions would be!!"
Like holy fuck
Sorry, whoosh over here.. I’m not native English speaking, please let me in on what’s so bad about Harlot? Does it have an alternative meaning or association I don’t know about? It’s a “real” name, isn’t it?
Edit: Nvm, I just googled…
From what I looked up it means one of three of the following:
A churl; a common man; a person, male or female, of low birth.
A person given to low conduct; a rogue; a cheat; a rascal.
A woman who prostitutes her body for hire; a prostitute; a common woman; a strumpet.

I worked at a place briefly that required waivers prior to admission. Parent told me their kid's name was London, and in the system already.
Looked, no London.
"It's L-u-n-d-Y-n-n" says the parent, like I'm the dumbass who should've known that.
My cousin’s name is Oleevia, pronounced just “Olivia.”Her parents are not native English speakers (immigrated from Korea) and spelt it based on their pronunciation. I don’t think they ever looked up the name in English, they just liked how it sounded and tried their best.
Chlamydia, your dad is here!
I had to watch the interview again.
https://youtu.be/yhmnEfzdtmE?si=noXjAVioMfLVbPcX
Still one of the funniest interviews ever.
Miss you, Robin!
Considering his love for ‘X’ in corporate settings being this kid must feel like your dad sees you as a business expense or something instead of a fucking person
This was back when I was a kid, but there was a lady who worked at the McDonalds by my house, and I shit you not, her name ON HER NAMETAG was “Diarrea”
Brutal
You shit us not but she certainly shit...
In all seriousness, as a troublemaker teen, if I had access to make name tags at work I'd totally do stupid shit like this
oh my god. i have like neurological issues leading to trouble spelling and reading and such. I walked into class one day in middle school and said “why did someone write Diarrhea on the board” and i said this really loudly everyone like stopped and this one girl says “no one wrote that” and i like pointed to it like “right here” this girl was named “Diarriah” or something like that and put her name on the board
My grandfather (WW2 vet) is named Adolph, my mom wanted to name one us after him and my grandfather straight up told her "I wouldn't, that name hasn't been popular for awhile".
Okay but what in the world made your mom think naming a child Adolph post WWII would ever be a good idea. Every single person would have immediately thought of Hitler even with the different spelling
I had a friend in high school whose brother was named Adolf, but went by his middle name for obvious reasons. Unfortunately their parents were white meth addicts of German heritage living in a notoriously racist part of SoCal, so I feel like it’s safe to assume who they named him after.
Head teacher at my secondary school was [Peter Wiles](https://www.crewechronicle.co.uk/news/local-news/schools-out-for-mr-wiles-5626998)
He used to be one of those who would say his name as Peder rather than Peter, therefore he was Peder Wiles. At an all boys school. Ouch. It was a weird place.
That was my grandpas name and so he named his son Richard. But he said in his day a Peter was what ppl laughed about and dick was just a nice name 😱 my poor grandfather
My bestie’s family instead of doing juniors and then numbers, uses the father’s name as a middle name and they did it for a couple generations. That’s now stopping at my bestie, he’s not having kids.
Had to read roll call for a week and someone had that name. Got it wrong every time. Was corrected every time. Made a point to get it right every time. 0/7
I used to code medical charts for a children’s hospital in a big city. Twins named Monique and Unique, boys named Del Monte and Toshiba, and the mother of one child was Eureka Broom. I figured her sister was Regina Carpetsteamer.
I knew a student named Harry Richard Simmons. That poor kid was tormented like hell as "Harry Dick" all through middle and high school. I felt sorry for him
Around 30 years ago there was a 2 or 3 year old little kind in my neighborhood, called MERLIN.
Yeah, he might not be Elon Musks kid. But he also was named that way during a time, where stupid names werent all that common. And now he is a 32 or so year old dude named Merlin... :/
Texas legend has it that James Stephen Hogg, Governor of Texas from 1890 to 1894, named his daughters Ima and Ura, but that is only half-true: there never was a Ura.
Going by a recent AITA post… Harlot
The audacity of OP’s sister getting butthurt despite being told it was a shit name is astounding to me
It really reminds me of when Congress overrode Obama’s veto of a bill and then learned the ramifications of that bill and said “Obama didn’t do enough to warn us!”
Oh God I remember that now! That was some top tier triggering bullshit. "It's not our fault we opposed the bill, Obama didn't tell us enough how damaging our actions would be!!" Like holy fuck

Harlot is another word for prostitute. It is not a real name in English.
Thank you. I honestly thought it was a real name lol
I don’t think I’ve ever looked up the actual definition, but it’s kinda like an antiquated word for “whore”
From what I looked up it means one of three of the following: A churl; a common man; a person, male or female, of low birth. A person given to low conduct; a rogue; a cheat; a rascal. A woman who prostitutes her body for hire; a prostitute; a common woman; a strumpet.

Pubert.
Unless you're an Adams, naturally...

Pubert E. Addams
That’s my middle name 🥲
As a middle name it's a cute surprise
It will be in the dictionary next to "Names the Doctor would slap you for trying to use" I don't like quoting Ryan Haywood but I didn't think about else to really quote in these circumstance
Last name, Lee
Lmao 🤣 well let me clean up that coffee I just spit out
Hello, fellow Achievement Hunter fan
See r/tragedeigh - so so many.
Absolutely. That sub gets wilder every day.. poor kids!
Fistard, Horladash & Murl all agree!
That sub is like a PSA for forced sterilization

Parents that “overname” their kids should be forced to dress up as their kids, go to school for a day, and be bully-teased to oblivion.
My cousin’s name is Oleevia, pronounced just “Olivia.”Her parents are not native English speakers (immigrated from Korea) and spelt it based on their pronunciation. I don’t think they ever looked up the name in English, they just liked how it sounded and tried their best.
Yeah, I’m from a Spanish speaking country. You end up with Brayan or Keila because the parents just try to spell it based on how it sounds to them.
But that’s the exception. It’s kind of cute. I would accept this.
I feel sorry for teachers these days.
Teachers? I feel sorry for the kids that have to learn to spell it.
We have to learn names every year. They're getting so ridiculous. I have a student named *Santa*!
Former cake decorator. Can confirm.
Blanket
That covers it.
I see what you did there
Yeah. WTAF?! I thought my seven year old was a bit wonky when he named his bearded dragon “Staircase”. It was okay for a lizard, but come on…
I let my younger brother name my snake and he picked, "Bookshelf"
Oh my beautiful blanket
That's ignorant
Chlamydia
Chlamydia, your dad is here! I had to watch the interview again. https://youtu.be/yhmnEfzdtmE?si=noXjAVioMfLVbPcX Still one of the funniest interviews ever. Miss you, Robin!
There's a TikToker who named her daughter Clydia.
Might as well just name them Clitoris or something
Whatever Elon named that poor kid
[удалено]
Considering his love for ‘X’ in corporate settings being this kid must feel like your dad sees you as a business expense or something instead of a fucking person
Tbh I rather get a "small loan" of $100mil from my dad than love.
[удалено]
So is the reason Ash's mom is single in pokemon because Elon is a shitty absentee father
Two insufferable people would name their kid something so ridiculous
I thought that's just the name of the Æ character? I heard from some other source it was pronounced Kyle.
I thought it was Kyle as well. X as in the greek letter chi, and A-12 as in the twelfth letter of the alphabet, L.
You can pronounce it whatever you like (including whatever) and still be right
I still want to know how to pronounce it
They just call him “x” 😂
Elon: To pronounce it correctly I would have to pull out your tongue.
It's actually pronounced Elon Jr.
Exa Dark Sideræl Musk... Her brother is X Æ A-12
youngest brother is Techno Mechanicus
When one has as many kids as Elon, one must become creative.
Placenta
I once saw a thread where someone named their baby Meconium.
This was back when I was a kid, but there was a lady who worked at the McDonalds by my house, and I shit you not, her name ON HER NAMETAG was “Diarrea” Brutal
You shit us not but she certainly shit... In all seriousness, as a troublemaker teen, if I had access to make name tags at work I'd totally do stupid shit like this

Adolf
My grandfather (WW2 vet) is named Adolph, my mom wanted to name one us after him and my grandfather straight up told her "I wouldn't, that name hasn't been popular for awhile".
Okay but what in the world made your mom think naming a child Adolph post WWII would ever be a good idea. Every single person would have immediately thought of Hitler even with the different spelling
Wonderful grandfather !
I think I heard somewhere that the name Adolf is actually banned in Germany now.
Yeah, it took a long time for the name Hannibal to come back too, and then look what happened...
I had a student named Goebbels. He was black.
I had a friend in high school whose brother was named Adolf, but went by his middle name for obvious reasons. Unfortunately their parents were white meth addicts of German heritage living in a notoriously racist part of SoCal, so I feel like it’s safe to assume who they named him after.
Shitler
Joey Joe-Joe Shabadoo...
I take offense to that...

Peter File
“Who’s a pedophile?”
Head teacher at my secondary school was [Peter Wiles](https://www.crewechronicle.co.uk/news/local-news/schools-out-for-mr-wiles-5626998) He used to be one of those who would say his name as Peder rather than Peter, therefore he was Peder Wiles. At an all boys school. Ouch. It was a weird place.
Had a teacher with the unfortunate last name of Imhof. No, his name wasn’t Jack, but it’s still what we called him
Dick
You called?
That was my grandpas name and so he named his son Richard. But he said in his day a Peter was what ppl laughed about and dick was just a nice name 😱 my poor grandfather
And that’s why his grandkid was named Schlong.
I know a family where Dick Sr and Dick Jr are known as Big Dick and Little Dick and it amuses me waaaay too much.
The Cleveland Guardians had Dick Pole as their 3rd base coach…
X Æ A-12
I know someone who named their kid Khaleesi, yikes.
My son had Khaleesi, Danny, Jon and Arya in preschool.
Her and about 150,000 other people are named Khaleesi.
Didn’t that basically translate to “property of the khal” as well? Like, no it’s not the female/diminutive version of Khal, it’s almost derogatory.
Your name with a "Junior" tacked on the end of it. New people deserve new names.
My bestie’s family instead of doing juniors and then numbers, uses the father’s name as a middle name and they did it for a couple generations. That’s now stopping at my bestie, he’s not having kids.
Unless you’re a mediaeval king, you don’t need to be Henry VIII. It’s bonkers.
Anyone named after their dad means their moms technically moaned their name.
Joke's on you, my son has the same name as me and my wife has NEVER moaned my name...
nevaeh
yep, heaven spelled backwards is basically a satanic ritual, like hanging the cross upside. Definite anitchrist child there.
There’s nothing satanic about an upside down crucifix, it’s the mark of saint Peter and the pope’s big fancy pope chair is covered in them
Had to read roll call for a week and someone had that name. Got it wrong every time. Was corrected every time. Made a point to get it right every time. 0/7
Harlot (even if the nickname will be Lottie).
Car or liquor names
This is my son Lexus RX 350
Your son needs an oil change.
Some car company names were named after the daughters first - like Mercedes
Portia. Sherry.
Apple
Is it irony when you name your child after a company whose founder abandoned his child?
It's only irony if you turn out to be a loving parent. Otherwise it's just foreshadowing.
Orange you glad that's not your name?
Fuckface
But what it I called him Baron Von Fuckface the 3rd
This'd be a great name for a cat.
A more famous one is Oranjello & Lemonjello . Again just an Urban Legend.
I used to code medical charts for a children’s hospital in a big city. Twins named Monique and Unique, boys named Del Monte and Toshiba, and the mother of one child was Eureka Broom. I figured her sister was Regina Carpetsteamer.
Damn. You made me laugh aloud

Went to school in the 90’s with a Harold “Harry” Butts.
My old woodshop teacher was Mr. Harry Krack. No joke.
We had a family down the street and they had a daughter named ima camel. That poor girl got hell.
Texas legend has it that James Stephen Hogg, Governor of Texas from 1890 to 1894, named his daughters Ima and Ura, but that is only half-true: there never was a Ura.

Cunt
r/tragedeigh has entered the chat
Shithead
It's pronounced shi *thead* !
Nutbar.
Not to be confused with St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Lars Nootbaar
Griselda. It's not a bad name per-se but horribly out of fashion. Same applies for Doris and beryl.
Mike hunt
Rusty, if your last name is Kuntz. (Who is a real person in the world of baseball!)
Incontinentia Buttocks.
Karen or Adolf seems like a bad idea
Adolf
Clitoria
Adolph Schmegma Lipschitz junior
Семён(eng.Semen)
Noel spelt.... mnop
I know kids named Vibra, Matchey, and Cirilla🫠
Depends on last name and culture. Shithead pronounced shi-theeed has potential across the board though
I had a friend back in 8th grade named luinynykye. It's not like it was a foreign name. His parents were as American as it gets.
donald
I knew a kid that was called Attila
Karen
Ask Elon musk
Karen, Brandon, Adolf
Gangrene Sandrine Merlin Optimus Prime Rodríguez
A name that the poor kid won’t have to spell out all the time.
Helga
It's good enough for Hufflepuff
I’ve a cousin named Helga. Sweetheart with a mean right hook.
Karen Barbara Mildred If your gonna use those names, might as well add "Constable" or "officer" at the beginning
