Unfortunate name choice. But that doesn't mean they would be terrible parents. This is thought-control after all. I wonder what will be more traumatic for the children: growing up with the stupid name or being taken of their homes and their parents to be raised up in the warmth of an institution or with foster parents aided by loving social workers.

Stupid.

I voted yes and I consider "batsh*t crazy" votes to effectively be "yes" as well.

My best friend and his girlfriend coincidentally share the same surname (which is also a common first name): Vlad. He says they're dead serious about their intentions to name their first boy... Vlad Vlad-Vlad. Wacko LOL

He was very upset that his sister (a single mother) stole his idea and named her recently born son Vlad Vlad. Stern Smile

A local popular singer here, with the quite common last name Ban (pronounced as in "auto-bahn") named his children Ray and and Ana, so they could be Ray Ban and BanAna. Wacko

"Heaven Lee" or "Heaven Leigh" is a lot more common than you think.  I dated a girl who wanted to name her first daughter that.


Interesting.  I haven't come across it before myself.  I guess there are weirder names floating around these days.

Adolf was, and technically still is, just a name.

The problem isn't that they named him Adolf. The problem is that they named him Adolf Hitler, "Hitler" being the middle name.

Obvious social trauma and misery is obvious
buuuuuuuttttttttt

Adolf was, and technically still is, just a name.
All these decades later and that f**ked up evil b*****d is still winning.
Same with the "hitler mustache" we should all start sporting it to prove how we've overcome his terrible legacy.


Also Jesus (or at least hey-suess) is a name!
Satan though....would take some major cojones to name your kid Satan.
I'll step up to the plate, remember son no matter the jokes kids make it's "Suh-tawn" not "Say-tin"!

No, it doesn't.


Yes.  Yes it does.  I was thinking the same thing Aginor. 


No. It doesn't sound French at all.
"Garnea" would be pronounced with a hard "G" (since it's in front of an "a") and the end "-nea" would be pronounced the same way than in Italian, Spanish or Portuguese.
It would never be pronounced "Zhunay".
