A friend of mine told me she went to school with kids named

[HEyHEY]

"Jesus is Lord" and "God is great"

What kinda fucking whacko names their children those names?

[dolo amber]

1. I went to school with Starr and Angel

And I swear to whomever, their parents were named Mary and Joe. :eyes:

[HEyHEY]

4. wow

I'm gonna name my kids "REligion is a sham" and "Spawn of satan"

[ET Awful]

2. Well, the parents names were

Satan is Bad and I Shall Smite Thee, so it just followed naturally.

[HEyHEY]

6. The youngest kid's name was "Amen"

[demnan]

17. Ha-ha!

He was named Amen because she had her tubes tied!

[HEyHEY]

18. rimshot

[BR_Parkway]

[BigMcLargehuge]

Amanda Lynn

[HEyHEY]

7. ?

I don't get it, are you joking or am I missing something?

[Richardo]

13. Psst! HEyHEY....

;-)

[HEyHEY]

15. Oh, haha

[amandae]

5. There's a first grader in my daughter's school named Nimrod

WTF??

No idea what these parents are thinking. His last name could be pronounced badly too making his complete name sound horrible.

[HEyHEY]

9. My sister's name said fast was "Genital"

[amandae]

19. Ugh ... that's bad

Did anyone pick up on that and make fun of her (other than you) when she was growing up?

[HEyHEY]

21. That was her nickname - she got married last year though

But her new last name is close to "Gonads"

[amandae]

28. I can't even decide if that's worse than the original or a step up

Either one is pretty bad though ... as long as she didn't mind the nickname, no harm done.

[asthmaticeog]

10. That's a middle eastern name, no?

Is the kid's family Arabic? If they're immigrants, they might not even know that the name is an insult here.

[amandae]

16. I don't think so ...

I know the last name is English and the mother's name is hyphenated and it's not Arabic (I've worked with the mother very briefly on school matters - mispronounced her last name in a phone message and was corrected via e-mail).

I strongly suspect that it was just some family name that they passed down to this poor child. He's going to have a hell of a time with it when he's older.
