    Some people have this tradition to name their kids after x or y relative, I would never do that.

    I wanted to name my daughter Zelda. Mrs Pano vetoed it.

    The Z makes it sound sexy. Also Moxy got shot down.

    I heard that it is supposedly forbidden in my country to name a child “Satan”. I live in a pretty progressive/ not very religious country, so I find that absolutely moronic. I would totally ask if it was possible to assign that as a second name.

    And even though my low low bar, I would probably never name my child after any brand, place or food item. Names that sugest stupidity are also off the list.

    My wife shot down Matias.

    I’d never pick a name that uses “eigh” instead of “y” also never Keith.

    I really wanted to name my daughter Ceilidh, but my wife would not stand for it. I was even willing to compromise down to Ceiling! She also objected to Cadence and Victory.

    Somehow got her to agree to Gynhwyfar and Clothilde and Yetska, though.

    I would like to call them Ramond Luxury Yacht. But i won’t because nobody would pronounce it correctly.

    Now seriously, we deliberately chose first names for our children that would be easy to pronounce in most languages. They also got slightly more exotic second names in case they didn’t like their first names.

    If it was a girl, Elaine, but that would be weird because that is my name! 😂

    I’d never give them any names that they could be picked on for. So no unusual names such as X Æ A-12

        Some more than others.

        Had a friend with a classmate named Anakin and he’s still in all the school memes post-grad.

      That’s not weird. Both my mom and me as well as a girl I help with are all Tinas (one Celestina, one Valentina, and one Christina).

        It’s interesting how Tina is a diminutive of many other names. This happens with its masculine counterpart Tino too, such as Tarantino, Costantino, and Martino. The diminutive of the name Elaine is Lanie, it’s not exactly the same but similar enough!

          It does? I’ve never seen someone called Tino before.

          I’ll say it does get confusing though. A lot of people use “Tina” (which is short for my post-adoption legal name too, though only for spelling) and so when there’s a “message for Tina” or “order up, Tina” when a food order is ready, everyone who is there stands up. Doesn’t help that not only is there a Celestina (my birth mom), a Valentina (me, hence also being “Leni” to some people), and a Christina (the sweet kid who imprinted with me, like pseudomom status), but also a Clementina (grandmother) and an Augustina (great grandmother) and it was a pain, for example, sorting through paperwork when my maternal grandfather passed.

    I will name my kid what I want to name them - part of my desires when choosing a name are to pick something they won’t hate.
