Kimyonce, Chandelier and money… Reddit users reveal the worst names they’ve heard parents call their children
For many parents choosing a unique baby can be a difficult decision but these mums and dads have definitely gone too far
SOCIAL media users have revealed the worst names that parents have called their kids, including Kimyonce, Chandelier and Money.
The thread began on the sharing site Reddit when one user asked the question: "What's the most ridiculous name you've heard a parent give their kid?"
And the "ridiculous" answers flooded in, including one user who said they heard a parent name their child Kimyonce, a combination of Kim Kardashian and Beyonce.
Another user said they'd met a child with the hilariously pop-related name Aero Smith, as the parents were presumably big fans of the band.
While other parents apparently decided to name their children after illegal drugs including: "Marijuana Pronounced 'mary-annaaa'".
And "Extacy, pronounced like ecstacy. Not sure if they misspelled it on purpose- was afraid to ask."
