Maybe this “game” is petty, but I had to let off some steam.
I know someone who named her daughter “Evaeh” (from Nevaeh, but without the N, because she preferred it that way) . She likes to brag about how her daughter’s name means “heaven”, and it bothers me so much. Yes, maybe Nevaeh is derived from being the word heaven spelled backwards, but all you spelled backwards is HEAVE. Not quite the same flair…
Anyways, what’s the most annoying name you know? Lol
A couple on Youtube that I watch just had a son named [name_u]James[/name_u], which is a great name, but their last name… is Johns. I find alliteration kind of annoying anyway and this name doesn’t help.
A year or two ago my ex boyfriend’s brother named his baby… [name_f]Demelza[/name_f] [name_f]Meabh[/name_f]. And no, they’re not Irish.
[name_f]Demelza[/name_f] - I’m sorry but this is just a supremely unattractive name. I would not want to be named [name_f]Demelza[/name_f] and since I plan on not naming my child something I myself wouldn’t want to be named, I would not name her [name_f]Demelza[/name_f]. The name (in my own opinion) sounds and looks like the evil old school teacher or neighbor in a children’s book
[name_f]Meabh[/name_f] - most people will not know how the heck to pronounce this. Unless you are Irish I don’t see why you’d give your kid a name that nearly everyone will butcher and they will have to constantly correct- granted it is a middle. Growing up nobody could pronounce my last name right and I was the butt of jokes so I know what a pain this can be even though as an older teenager and now as a young adult I don’t so much care
