A work colleague has had a baby boy today and obviously been looking at "The Big Book of Stupid Fucking Baby Names".

The name it's lumbered with is now Ace. And their surname is not even Rimmer, which would be cool and I could understand that. (google Ace Rimmer if you're confused)

Were these people never in school? Do they not know how cruel kids are? Or does every child have a stupid name these days so its the norm?

His older brother is called Zion I just heard.

So any opinions on or further ridiculous names for spawn?

There are lots of names from all over the world in schools now and certainly at primary level most of the children attending inner city, culturally diverse schools would think it wrong to make fun of a name.

Your post made me laugh because my sister and I were chatting to a couple of a new born just yesterday. The initials of their fathers' names would spell ACE and we were joking they should just call the new baby just that.

Hopefully the kid's surname is "High"

Not quite as good as "Rimmer" though

With a cracking view

Always having to check how parents want to spell the names given to their kids, especially as there's a trend for changing the spelling of well known names.

Had one wanting to name their baby Melaena

And another thought of naming her baby after her grandfather Malcolm, and she delivered a girl, and seriously thought of naming her Malcomena !

Always be wary of Names that mean things in a foreign language.

Like people who get someones name or a phrase tattoed on them in mandarin or something. You've got to make sure it actually means what you think it means or you end up with the words Arse Feltcher on you permanently.

Thats due to that singer Maverick Saber isn't it. If you're surname is Saber and you have a baby then the correct name to call it is Light not Maverick!
