I've always been fascinated by names, but some of them are plain goofy. What names do you think should a kid never be cursed to have by their parents?

Yesterday, I was talking to a black girl named Aisha. That one comes to mind.

Jesus, why do Mexicans name their kids that?

Or in their case "Hey Soos"

Amy Shannon Smith is a horrible name.

Any name that has a prefix such as La- or De-.

Any name made up by Black Americans.

My moms boyfriend calls his remote Shaniqua, because it's black.

Always thought names like Betty Lou were a bit off.

You should name a child well. As is the custom of my family, we are all names after fathers or grandmothers. I believe that their should be a meaning behind a name as well. My name is Paul- which means little Ette- means little Anne- means strong one. So, I like my name. These Hollywood celebrities name their kids: Apple, and Orange- it just shows you that they really are a bunch of fruits.

Adolf of course NOT!!!

Yes, ironically, some Jews from Europe were named Adolf, and even the great Jewish basketball player, Adolf Schayes, that's probably why he shortened his name to Dolf.

Adolf is just a normal name.. but that evil maniac had to ruin it. But there were other evil maniacs with very common names.. Benito Mussolini, Joseph Stalin. Even evil kyke scum like Ariel Sharon and Shimon Peres... do we stop naming kids Benito, Joseph, Ariel and Shimon? Where do you draw the line?

Good point, Vito. Hey, that's okay you didn't know. I really feel sorry for people with the last name Hitler. Now that you would have to change I guess, but you never know, we do have a Hussein currently running for President.

If I recall, Adolf Hitlers last name (well his fathers) was Heidler and had it changed?

I guess Adolphe will be a taboo for a couple of centuries.
BTW one of our most famous Belgians gave his name to the Saxophone : Adolphe Sax.
But after '45 I think nobody called his children like that here.

Besides 'Hiedler/Hitler' there is also a name 'Schickelgruber'
