One of the benefits of having a kid is you get to name them. That way, you can honor your grandad, pay your respects to the artist who has inspired you, or… show the world you’re a bit weird.
A month ago, Reddit user Hasden2007 asked other users on the platform, “What is the worst name you could give a child?” Turns out, there’s no shortage of those.
So far, the post has received over 4.7K replies. From Strawberry Rain to Chastity, here are some of the most upvoted ones.

My coworker named her baby “Strawberry Rain”, which would be a great name if she had given birth to a bottle of shampoo

Mystic Pigeon? She was a client at my office.
Apparently it’s a real surname and her parents were hippies so named her “Mystic”. Like who’s ever going to take her seriously??

How about not giving your child a name? There was a kid I went to high school with whose legal first name was “Unnamed Baby Boy”. I don’t know the story behind that though.
