Hello you awesome people,

Friends are having a boy and everyone they know wants to push a name on the child. So I decided to be the best friend they could have and to offer only bad, ugly or horrendous names to the lucky parents so they could have a laugh. I already send them some names and dictators, Smeagol, Steve and Juan-Esteban.

So please, people or Lemmy, give me the worst names you could give a child, so that I can help them as a good friend!

Ps: don't worry, I've already planned some meals to drop off when the gremlin will be there to feed the parents. And some take-out vouchers so they won't get food poisoning

X Æ A-12

The only way to escape a name like that is to take a phallic rocket to mars and start a new colony

The only winner here is his sister who's name was not as publicized. Exa Dark Siderael

Sounds like a hidden boss in a final fantasy game

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Actually so many boss fights in life

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

How do you even pronunce that?

[-] Kevo@lemmy.world 37 points 10 months ago

No joke, it's pronounced Kyle. It's the Greek letter chi, the dipthong æ which is called an æsc (pronounced ash) that makes a sound similar to the "a" in "cat" but shorter, and A-12 stands for "alphabet 12" or the 12th letter of the alphabet which is L. So chi-æ-l or kinda like a two syllable "Kyle"

Wow, I see it now. That is beyond retarded. Jesus Christ

Can we not throw slurs around?

Dixon.

[-] Susaga@ttrpg.network 19 points 10 months ago

It's only pronounced that way because he's a dick's son.

[-] ChrisLicht@lemm.ee 6 points 10 months ago

That was the joke, but I trust it’s much improved by the explication.

Is (the name at issue) this some unicode shit or sumfing?

[-] ChrisLicht@lemm.ee 12 points 10 months ago

It’s what a manchild thinks is sci-fi.

[-] SigloPseudoMundo@lemmy.ml 5 points 10 months ago

It's pronounced kyle

[-] LazaroFilm@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I read they pronounce it Xavier

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

For real?

Edit: doesnt he have a Xavier already?

Edit: duplicative

[-] YexingTudou@lemmy.ml 4 points 10 months ago

Does he care about any of his kids enough to know if there's already a Xavier?

[-] nitefox@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

Xavier v2.0
