I have to add
Moxie Crimefighter to the list of atrocities.
I think Moxie CrimeFighter is awesome. Fifi Trixiebelle is the celeb baby name that makes me cringe. At least Moxie is cool, but poor Fifi has a name that sounds like a poodle.
Via DListed: If you name your daughter "Chudney", as Diana Ross named her youngest, she may grow up to be
hilariously vapid.
How the hell can anyone name their kid after an underground sewer monster?
People are dumb.
Chud freakin' Ney?! What the hell was Diana on?!
Maybe she had a Lorelai Gilmore high-on-painkillers moment? Except then her daughter should probably be named Diana.
I read in a book that Diana craved chutney when she was pregnant, and named her Chudney for that reason. She didn't realize until the birth certificate was filed that it was misspelled. Take that with however many grains of salt you wish. =)
Either way, that name sucks. Shame on you, Ms. Ross!
Okay, why the hell would you name your kid after a disgusting food (no offense to anyone here who may love chutney, but I can't stand it). People name their children after the dumbest things: the places they were conceived, the foods they craved while pregnant, characters on TV*, etc. It's like they're fascinated with carrying the child, and forget that it will be a fully formed human being one day.
*Normally, I would have no problem with this, but since I met a little girl named Topanga I'm including that category in my rant.
From her blog:

| People may struggle with how to pronounce CHUDNEY and I may have been mocked a bit growing up, but I have learned to appreciate the uniqueness of my name. I have a great name! |
You just keep telling yourself that, Chudney!
So there really was a "Baby Chu[d]ney" running around in the real world.

I just found out about two years ago that Topanga was the name of a place in California. Watching the show, I always wondered where they got that name.
Topic: Nancy O'Dell (Access Hollywood) has a baby girl - Ashby Grace Zubchevich. Ashby is from the maternal grandfather, which is a little odd for a girl. I think I kind of like it, actually.
I just saw that Lindsay Davenport and her husband
named their son Jagger. Oh Lindsay. And I always thought you were so normal!
Well, the middle name is Jonathan right? He can go by that.
Everytime I hear the name Jagger I flash to Jagger Cates, hot but lesser brother of Stone Cates on General Hospital.
