Parenthood is very rewarding and quite adventurous. Your life gets turned upside down, and you're doing things you never thought you would: early mornings, late nights, constant stress and pressure, yet a tiny smile from your little human is quick to fix any of your worries. 

You spend a few exciting months preparing for your baby's arrival, figuring out all the whys and hows. Probably constantly thinking about how you could make your child's life extra special and satisfying. One of the scariest and most vital decisions for new parents or parents-to-be is choosing your offspring's name. Some folks stick to fairly common ones – others take this assignment far too seriously. 

"Poke fun at awful names and naming culture. No name is safe" – an online community with over 41K members that dedicates itself to "unique" names continues to entertain its members with odd examples, and BP collected a few of the best ones.

Everyone has names, all 7.9 billion of us – and they all mean different things to people, even if it's something common. It's exciting to think that, at one point, our folks decided to sit together and go through all the possible options that they found appealing, before settling on the one that they thought would fit our story.

it's understandable that each parent wants the absolute best for their child. You want them to have a fulfilling life, filled with amazing memories and great success. Incidentally, some might think that the name will mysteriously affect their offspring's future, so they make it their top priority to come up with something meaningful and maybe even unusual.

This Person Is Doing The Lord's Work.

This Person Is Doing The Lord's Work.

macabre_trout Report

Every generation had a certain set of names that was quite popular and up until a decade ago, it wasn't uncommon to encounter a few peers with the same one as yours. Whether it was a playground, a school or your workplace – there were always a few Davids and Sarahs around.

Who knows, maybe back then folks weren't bothered by the popularity of their baby's name and the only thing that mattered to them was that it wouldn't get their offspring in trouble with their mates. Mockery and bullying could seriously mess with a young person's mind, and who wants their child to go through all this trouble?

Sadly, kids don't have any filter. Little ones will say everything that comes to their minds and they won't think twice about it. This type of behavior could be blamed on multiple things: a lack of discipline, a simple thought outburst that often happens at their age – whatever it might be, chances are your child will still get bullied. As we all know, looks play a crucial role when it comes to bullying since commenting on someone's appearance is considered to be a norm even when you hit 40, but having a wacky name also messes with the way your peers perceive you.

Thought Y’all Would Appreciate This

thesulk Report

Having an odd name could lead to some unpleasant issues, for instance, offensive nicknames. And when a problem of a similar character occurs, it's extremely hard to get folks to view you as you, and not as the nickname you've been given. When you're young, you don't have the time to think about how uniqueness will conquer the world someday, all you care about is fitting in, and preferably with the popular folks.

Though, this decade is all about celebrating the individuality of each person, and maybe this is exactly the reason why we've been stumbling upon so many over-complicated names. People are eager to be unique and special, they want to differ from others and to be their own special person. Back in the days, it was rewarding to name your child after a grandparent or a significant person in your life, but nowadays it's all about individual identity. Fitting in is not "cool" anymore, which is amazing and very freeing – however, some people take this celebration of individuality the wrong way.

By all means, naming your child something different is wonderful and empowering, but why would somebody want to call their baby that will eventually become a 50-year-old office worker Midnight or Calliope? It seems that in today's world, a name is more than what your friends or your teachers call you – it's an aesthetic that your parents made up in their minds, a social media handle, if you will.

Guess what her nickname would be. Namers should always think about nicknames and what the initials spell. I went out with a guy whose initials were F. U. K. A woman in my office was named Ana Lyses. Worse, some applications used our first name and last initial, so she'd appear on the form as A**L.

Knowing how many names and words are Anglicized from European origins I decided to look up "Bowie." Bowie is a Scottish and Irish surname. The name can be derived from the Gaelic nickname buidhe, meaning "yellow", "fair-haired". The surname can also be an Anglicised form of the Irish surname Ó Buadhaigh; this surname means "descendant of Buadhach" and is also rendered as Bogue and Boyce.

Proving they have no idea how to pronounce words in French. That "x" would get a "z" sound when followed by a vowel. So it would be "bow-zee".

As a french I don’t know how to prononce that either. For « Beau » no problems. An « x » on the middle could be either « ks » like « auxiliaire » or a « z » or even a « s »

i genuinly don't get the obession with the spelling. i mean if you pronounce it Bowie then write it Bowie. don't toture a kid with a name it can't write and has to spell all the time. the whole "it's cute" should come after "a human has to live with this". life is hard, don't make it harder because you wan't to be one of those dumbass special snowflakes. and i beg you pardon but the fact that so many (especially Americans) mess around with spelling to create something that might mean something completly different in another language is just ignorant and dumb. do your research and for gods sake don't tell everyone a letter is silent or "eau" is suddenly pronounced ai. That's not how languages work!
