17 People Share the Most Ridiculous Baby Names They've Ever Heard

There are some strange baby names that exist out there. If you've ever had to resist the urge to raise your eyebrows after hearing someone introduce themselves, you know what we're talking about. A recent Reddit chat asked users to chime in with the most ridiculous baby name they've actually heard a parent use before. From the hilarious to the just plain wrong, here are some of the weirdest responses:

1. Strawberry Rain.

"My coworker named her baby 'Strawberry Rain,' which would be a great name, if she gave birth to a bottle of shampoo."

2. Kimyonce

"Her parent is apparently a fan of Beyonce and the Kardashians. I feel so sorry for that kid," said one user.

3. Penny Anna Nickel

"This one's a smile cracker," said one commenter while another user chimed in to agree that it's pretty clever.

4. Panther

"There was a girl at my college whose name was Panther. She had the best sense of humor about it, though."

5. Azmataq

"My daughter went to primary school with a boy named Azmataq," said one commenter. Others chimed to to say it sounded like the kid was having an asthma attack.

6. Thunder and Lightning

In case you were wondering, "and" is part of this person's middle name. Another user commented, "last name: So Frightening."

7. Tom Brady

"My fiancé wants our first child's middle name to be Tom Brady."

8. Chandelier

After one user said he want to school with a kid named Chandelier, commenters chimed in to say he seemed like a bright kid who people really looked up to. "Just lit up their parent's life," added another.

9. January

Okay, this one may not sound that strange (there's actress January Jones, after all), but what really puts it over the edge is what the family named the rest of their kids: "1st kid—January, 2nd kid—February, 3rd kid—March, etc. This list goes all the way to August," the commenter wrote.

Apparently, this family isn't the only one to give siblings names in a series: "I knew a family like this once, their first daughter was named Summer, their second was named Autumn, their third child was a boy, they named him Winter, but then they had another daughter and they named her Emily." We guess they aren't fans of Spring.

10. Fatasse

"He was from Burkina Faso (a French speaking country) so he did not know how hilarious his name was."

11. Godbless

"I climbed Mt. Kili (in Tanzania) as a kid, and our guide was named Godbless (not a translation— literally his name). Nicest dude."

12. Swann

You know who hears the strangest baby names on a regular basis? Teachers. Here's proof: ​ "I am a teacher. I have taught a boy called Swann. Got my class list for September. I have someone called Jupiter."

13. Xaos

Apparently, this one is pronounced "chaos."

14. Trout

"My mother is a hairdresser and she cut a young boy's hair this year. His name was Trout, like the fish...​"

15. Sexy

"Sexy... I kid you not. Someone thought it was a good idea to name their baby girl 'Sexy.' Can you imagine trying to call out her name at kindergarden..."

16. Nebraskita

"One of my friends went to school with a Nebraskita." To be fair, South Dakotasita doesn't have the same ring to it.

17. Fox

My nephew is named Fox. At first I was kinda horrified but now I see how the name fits him perfectly. Whenever he sees pictures of foxes he says "There I am." He is 4 and it is freaking adorable.
