Dumb names (generally and for siblings)

I used to date a girl called Jeanette who had an older sister called Jean.

:confused:

Any more dumb names out there?

Richard Head

EDIT: Sorry SOG, I see you what you mean now - dumb names for siblings!

How about Dick and Fanny?

You cant go wrong with those two! Reminds me of when Fanny Craddock used to do TV cooking shows and the presenter said I hope all your donuts turn out like Fannys!

These modern names and made up names do my head in, names even in my family I dislike, pretentious names only the extremely poor or extremely wealthy have become common place and its a complete fuck up, give me a Dave, Chris and Steve over a Leo, Theo and Gandalf anyday, traditional. Christian and names of meaning. Each to their own though.

Going off at a slight tangent, I know of a Mr & Mrs Sprout who called their son Russell. And there is a poor woman out there struggling under the name of Fannie Wiffin. I kid you not.

Brother and sister at my daughter’s school called Sam n’ Ella.

once heard of a Wayne King who had a very serious job and I thought someone was taking the piss out of me. They were not.

I could tell you a heap of amazing names i’ve heard during my working career but cannot for data protection reasons!

There was a bloke with a surname of Buttholeze in a case I dealt with at work.

I used to work with a girl named Jenny Taylor. I know its childish but I cant say the name without laughing.

I am hesitant to mention Sue Wedge in case she still lives in the Southampton area.

On the subject of stupid modern made up names, my step daughter called her son Jaxson. I tried to explain that the S was superfluous, but will they listen? I hate most of those stupid spellings. :scream:

You may have gone wrong using the word superfluous. She probably thought it meant extra awesome.

Watch any of the American shows like Jerry Springer, Maury etc, and the African American women have absurd made up names …Taquani, Shaminira, Shaquaria…totally made up to sound ‘different’ and ‘original’ and utterly ridiculous.

I’m glad you said it as I didn’t get it either :blush:

OK, we are clearly deperted from the sibling theme, so I’ll just carry on.

The mostest awesome real names I ever came across in real life?

Tony Rocket…Any name ending in Rocket would be cool as hell.

Jenny Rainbow…It’s like a 16 year old girl fucked a unicorn.

Jason Steel…That has to be a made up name for a TV series, but it wasn’t.
