What are some names never to name your child?

Damien ....as it comes in the movie omen as the child of Satan...so i prefer not2 use tht & somemore wicked names referd in t bible

What you need to make sure of is that the first name and last name can not be used against the child. I knew a man once and honest to god his name was Richard (mylot won't let me right the shortened name but it wasn't rick) Allcock. What was his mother thinking? Another thing you need to look at that is often overlooked is the childs initials. My step daughter didn't pay attention to this and ended up giving her daughter the intials BRA she was teased and tormented all through school. Look at all aspects when naming a child kids can be merciless.

Any name that your surgeon could introduce him or herself with without making you run in horror. Hint, Dr. Doogie only works on TV. ;~D Also, no name that is an object. We've all heard of names like Rusty Pipes, Harvest Moon or Justin Time, but most people never meet someone with such cruel parents. I had a friend in high school named Jim Sox. Cruel! Cruel! Cruel! :~D

I am assuming, maybe incorrectly, that you are expecting and thinking about what to name your baby? Some general thoughts: Think about the names you like so far. Now think about all the possible ways those names could be twisted into cruel nicknames. Also think about how the names sound with the surname attached. Does that make it sound like something other kids would have cruel fun picking on? Don't put a first name together with a middle and/or last name that would form a phrase or longer word. For instance, I heard of a family named Lear who named their daughter Christal Shanda. Now put that together and what do you get? And I went to college with a girl named Holly Wood. Of course there are the people, whether real or make believe, who's last names were Hole. First names, Iva and Ima. My mom swore there was a married couple in our town with those names. I never met them. My personal beliefs are to find names that have good strong meanings that mean something to you and your family. Maybe names that have something to do with your faith, or your background. Or names that express traits you wish for your child to have as they grow up. Then teach your child about their name as they grow up so they will be proud of their name no matter what other people say about it. I am sure that no matter what kind of name you choose, there will be someone out there who can manage to twist it into something to be teased about. But if the child is taught to respect and love his/her own name, it will make it better for them as they grow up.

Dumbledore. You get old with that name

Giving your child the wrong name can put them in a social handicap. You should give them a name so that when they apply for a job they won't be able to tell the race or sometimes even gender. Try to stay away from names that they can get picked on from as a child. Buster Cherry (sounds like bust her cherry) i know a girl and she named leyanna (sound like lay on her) or anything like shaniqua or deonte or such
