When you pressing random name button 56 times during character generation
Well some of these will not require your daughter to think of her stripper name.
White while, holy grail
So how many of these people are Mormon?
How many of these? No idea. How many in general? 100% too many.
I give it about a 98,5% chance, that the ones wanting to name their kid “Mötley”, have no clue how “ö” is actually pronounced.
True, but neither did Mötley Crüe.
Fuck you Wolfgang Atreides is money. I’d follow that baby into battle.
Also, Leviathan? 100%. And my only problem with Dusti Rose is the “I”.
What, there’s a misspelling of Lae’zel but no Kerlack? Boo!
…or maybe someone suggested Karlach and she didn’t include it because it’s a list of BAD name suggestions 🤔
I will never understand obtuse alternate spellings that are just homophones. Like Trinity spelled Triniteigh accomplishes nothing.
But the pronunciation of Triniteigh would have the sound like “neighbor” so wouldn’t be said like Trinity (tee)…
I worked under someone at an old job who named his son Jaxon. And kept pictures Jaxon drew and signed on the wall of his office. So every time I needed something from him, I would have to see Jaxon’s name in his office. And I hated it.
Was his middle name Mississippi?
We might have the same employer! Or at least I hope so, I can’t imagine two different sets of parents deciding that “Jackson” is just too boring
What a tragedeigh
Actually
it’s pronounced Trinitay
I can’t read it as anything other than trinitaaay
I’m not one to judge parents baby names, but Merricka??

I refuse to beleive Madden Raige is real.
Rage generated from playing Madden is certainly real
Do Americans have an equivalent of FIFA “sweaty goals” in Madden?
I hate that my comments often are about US culture but damn, almost none of them would be legal to give to your child here in Germany
I’m all for unique and clear identifiers for everything, including people, but jesus christ, imagine yourself in elementary school having a weird name. Why would parents choose a hard mode for their progeny?
Narcissism
Let me introduce you to Marijuana Pepsi:

The kicker is her parents and siblings have normal names.
Imagine you’re a seven years old little fat kid and your name is Leviathan
That one I actually like. It’s easy to short it to Levi in public, but still be able to flex among friends.
I guess if everyone has a weird name, that doesn’t matter. Maybe kids don’t make fun of weird names anymore. Who knows, maybe it’s the Johns and Marys who get made fun of for having uninteresting names.
I’m a big proponent of normal/semi obscure normal first name, weird middle name. John W Smith if you work in sales, J Wolfgang Smith if you’re an author. Perfect compromise.
Ngl having “Wolfgang” as an example for a weird name was really strange to read for me… but I’m German.
We gave our daughter a somewhat disused but normal and formerly not uncommon name which was the name of a plant. We just wanted a name that wasn’t religious but still normal enough that she wouldn’t get bullied for it (she got bullied anyway). We realized later that it actually made sense in terms of her ancestry because her mother has a plant name, her grandmother has a plant name and her great-grandmother had a plant name. One long lineage of plant names.

Describing it like that makes it really tempting to try and guess the name. Out of respect for your and her privacy, I won’t, though.
Okay, I admit it. Her name is Cannabis Indica.
Leviathan is awesome. I’d trade that for my common but bad name.
Leviathan is terrible. What if your kid is chubby? They’d be bullied to no end
Many people dislike their own names, but I think SomeGuy69 is an awesome name, too. Cheer up!
Levi for short.
I’d probably be clever about it if I were the parent, like giving the (old but otherwise normal) first name of Levi and a middle name of like Nathan or Ethan to let the kid come up with the nickname of Leviathan on their own.
That would be some next level approach. Love this idea.
Personally, I prefer names that are forbidden, like Username, Null, Admin, 'SELECT * FROM Users;-- , [email protected], Error, <FirstName>,
Found the Microsoft employee.
There was a missing child report near me whose name was Mill’ionaire.
I have a half-baked outline for a character who goes by C. M. Mil’naire and is really embarrassed about the fact that his full name is actually Cash Money Mil’naire. I have no idea how to use him, but I love him too much to not keep around.
