A Seattle couple has named their new born daughter Cydnee Leigh 12th Mann. Losers, LOL.

Great, brand a kid for life with a parent obsession. I agree. Some freakin' dumbasses shouldn't be allowed to have kids.

New Zealand has a thing for this...

Here are some of the names New Zealand officials either blocked or permitted:

Yeah Detroit
Keenan Got Lucy
Sex Fruit
Stallion
Twisty Poi

I guess the standard goes like this...

"Names must not "cause offence to a reasonable person"


I guess that's not the standard in Washington! :laugh3:

Doesn't look like any rationale behind which names are banned vs. which ones aren't.

I mean, Number 16 Bus Shelter? Really... talk about handicapping a kid right off the bat.

Rather pathetic really. I enjoy football as much as the next guy, but its a sad statement these people make who put so much emphasis on a game that it seeps into naming their children from their obsession? Wonder what the second most important thing is in their lives.

The kid will get her revenge. Someday her folks will be in a nursing home.

And I know of a kid named Teva... :L

A teacher I had in high school named Dale has a twin brother named Chip. He went on to explain how pissed they still are at their parents about it. He was also one of my football coaches so some of us made sure to remind him how big of a mistake it was to tell us in the first place. lol

My peeve is parents who pierce their infant's nose or ear. Are you kidding me? When a person is old enough to choose the pain to adorn themselves then fine. Doing that to an infant is abuse.

Just look at Bama fans, they trump all in stupidity.

When my aunt married my uncle they made the agreement that he would name the boys and she would name the girls. When their first son was born he was named Stratton. Years later, shortly before their 2nd son was born my uncle settled on Briggs, my aunt at this point revoked his naming rights and named the kid herself.

That would an interesting number to see. I have always lived in Missouri so I guess I could always claim I've lived in the St. Louis fan base territory. I would think a large portion of people move out of their local region though.

I don't know that stat.

But I did read somewhere a couple of years ago that 50% of Americans live within 30 miles from where they grew up.

I am not in that percentage but my wife is.

I totally agree. Not only getting them pierced but a baby could grab on to the jewelry and yank that shit out.

The thing i would like to see parents do is think beyond the 1st couple of years, when this kind of dumbass name is cute...Remember they might well feel pretty silly as a 50-year old to have the same "cute' name to carry around...

Funny thing is these parents were most likely not even Seahawk fans 5 years ago.

The little rug rats in elementary schools can be brutal. I think Miss Hanke still hates her idiot parents.
