why do parents name they kids weird names for

cause they just dont have no since at all plus they are lazy sumtimes

Usually the parents are weird...lol...

Unique names are fine but they have to make sense!! I agree that the parents need to think of how the name sounds and understand that the child might feel out of place if there name is really different.

Yeah some people genuinely like the name they give their kids and think it's unique and special. Or maybe they're named after one of their relatives who was very close to the parents. Sometimes I think parent's are either cruel or they thought it was clever at the time which I think is dumb to do.

I don't see how it has anything to do with being lazy, but yes sometimes they are a bit much.  I like unique names and I can understand parents wanting something different for their children.  I'm not a fan of the extremely strange names, but to each his own.

Probably a good name for them that's why they pick, but weird to others?!

I think parents just want to name there kids something unique.  My mother thought my name was so cute and different, but I hated my name growing up because it was never pronounced properly. I've always used my nickname.

Maybe they are trying to be original...who knows...they do....

It's not laziness, but some do go a lot overboard when naming their child.  It's their choice.

[queenofnines]

Because they're trying to be "creative", when really, they just have poor judgement.

i always think every weird name is unique, the parents always have reason, not laziness i think.

I thought about your question today and had to search for your post in order to give you another perspective.  I underwrite loans at one of my jobs. When looking at the pictures in appraisals we have to make sure that the home owners/pictures of the homeowners aren't in the photo because any action taken in deciding the acceptance.declination of the loan could be tainted by whether the perception of a minority or non-minority applicant is involved in receiving/not receiving money from the transaction.  I think that having a name that is weird sets a person up for the same kind of prejudicial treatment that the government is trying to avoid by all of the precautions I outlined. Parent's naming their children weird names may just be enforcing their pre-disposition to be held down all of their lives.

Lazy I do not think so. It may have a meaning to the Family that you just do not understand. Maybe they wanted to name their child that name because it may have been a family person name back in the day. What makes no sense is a person who sit around a judge another of how they name their child which is really no business of yours at all. I mean really, people keep judging others over things that it is none of their business.

I understand that parents want their child to have a unique name but then they shouldn't get upset when people can't figure out how to say their child's name.
