So what is the name? (Unless I missed it earlier in the thread)


I know a kid with this name...Karsyn, Carsyn.

The ones that bug me...

Kymberlee
Ryleigh
Sylveeah
Nevaeh
Austyn
Braeleigh
Emmaleigh
Haedyn

I could go on and on.

My daughter taught a Raeyn. Rain, right? Nope Ray-en.

My kids have family names that are generations old. They were names 400 years ago and are names today.

if you're on facebook I highly recommend the group, "That name is a tragedeigh" The shite white people are doing with names is obnoxious.... 0 awareness of the fact that that name is going to have to end up on a job application one day

Not a normal name but a woman seriously named her daughter "le-a" and would get angry when people pronounced it lea instead of le dash a.


Sure.....


She was a plaintiff in a casualty lawsuit. I remember it because you could not enter the name into the system.

A couple co-workers were discussing their kids names the other day and they discovered they both had sons named Justin. One asked the other...how do you spell that? The other said, “it’s Justin...I spell it how anyone with a functioning brain would spell it.”

I was so proud

A friend who teaches in EBR had a student named Nicholas, but pronounced it “Nie shuh las”. Worst creative name spelling I’ve seen recently is Lundyn
