I get it, some parents want to be “original” and name their kid something other than John.
Or Jason (the most popular boy’s name the year I was born).
But honestly, is having 5 kids in your class named “Jackson” but all spelled differently better than having 5 kids named Jason in your class all spelled the same? I submit it is not. Too complicated.
In any event, there’s a hot subreddit dedicated entirely to roasting name choices and naming culture. Appropriately dubbed “Name Nerd Circle Jerk” the sub has curated some of the best and funniest posts about dumb baby names on the web.
Here are some of the best…
1. Wouldn’t wanna go with anything weird.
