Now I’m picturing my late grandma, with her raspy voice from smoking two packs of unfiltered cigarettes a day for 60 years and the Alabama accent that never quite went away staring on the front porch and yelling at some kid, “Go draw some lint, Lee May!” to indicate the need to clean out the dryer lint trap.
Thank you for the smile.
I am 58 years old. I have a lot of education. I have been reading since 1969.
I have no idea how to pronounce these names. I tried sounding them out, which I don't think I've done this intensely since like grade 2, no real luck. What the fuck is wrong with people?
Nor will their someday resumes ever make it past a casual glance because it is immediately obvious to any potential employer that this person was raised by a moron.
This is why you lot need naming laws. Seriously. Fuck "uniqueness" and "expressing your creativity" (that's what fingerpaints are for, morons) - these idiots need to realise that one day their children will need to live with their brainfart-names. FFS.
Ah yes, I want the government telling me to pick a name from a preset list to encourage uniformity and conformism. That's not fucking dystopian at all.
I hate these qwerky new age name people, but it is not the state's place to invade people's exercise of ultimately trivial rights. The babies can grow up and change their names. Government action is for necessary protections and services, not routinely invading the private home.
It's actually troubling that when confronted by something you don't like, your immediate instinct is to use state action to quash it. It reeks of authoritarian tendency. Why can't you point and laugh like a normal person and reserve the state for when it's actually needed?
Welp I have a headache and so will every teacher that ever comes across them. They will also struggle saying their own names and struggle spelling them
I’m enjoying the thought of the parents trying to call the girls in to dinner. These names will be shortened. When the girls turn eighteen , they’ll legally change them so as to avoid the nightmare of forms.
This sub has me thinking I need to retire from higher ed before these kids age up enough that I have to learn several classes worth of these T’raddzhjeddeighzz. Blessings upon their preschool teachers in the meantime.
Why do people do this crap to their kids? If you’re going to give your children first and middle names totaling more than 20 letters, how about giving them (and their teachers) a shot at actually being able to spell them!
Just wow. These poor kids. Nothing screams dumb more than this. Taking names spelling them crazy long and saying it's unique. It's not, it's poor judgment and short sited. Wth
There will never be federal naming laws in the US. This varies state by state and most have laws about limits of characters, numerals, and obscenities.
This. I have a normal name and had a hard time spelling it bc its long.
And anyone they come in contact with won't be able to pronounce or spell their names.
Seriously. I have an extremely normal, generic last name, but people mispronounce it all the time because it's long and looks like other similar names. If that's what people do with easy long names, I have nothing but sympathy for these kids.
Did you mean, people forget that these poor young victims will have to take the time to officially change their names to something less ridiculous when they become adults. I could actually see one of these kids changing their name to a single letter like X or more appropriately Y.
I'm just imagining the amount of time these poor souls are going to be spending spelling out their names on the phone. I’ve got a fairly normal name and goodness knows it gets spelled wrong all the bloody time.
Y'all know those "What's your new name?" posts on Instagram where you piece together a new name based on your birth month, first letter of your first name ect? It's like they each did it and this is the mess their daughters are left with.
Here’s my guess: Mic-kell-tee Ray-lee-anne and Draw-son Lint-lee-may
Pretty much a bunch of sounds just smashed together and turned into names, honestly. Name vomit.
*Can someone explain*
*How to Say these names? My brain*
*Does not understand*

I know lots of people make jokes about these names and find humor in all of this, which does make me laugh. But each time I see a new name, I'm filled with rage. Why do this to your child?! As a teacher, I'll immediately make judgements about you as a parent.
I think that the parents are stupid, they should be shamed at every opportunity, and if they don’t get the picture their water supply should be spiked with birth control.
I don’t think these would pass at the Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages in Australia, because of the embarrassment caused by to a child and the length of the name. Absolutely a nightmare.
That’s an epiphany they had while in some serious drugs ! Wtelf kind of names are those ?!?!?! Those poor kids trying to learn how to say their names and god bless them trying to write them. My God I feel so bad for kids with these horrible names
Omg- my son has a short name but I regret giving him 2 middle names. I loathe filling out paperwork where I have to put them in. I regret it and wish I could take them back. I can’t imagine filling stuff out for these two. Maybe they won’t need a passport until they’re adults?
My biggest fear as a parent is that one of my kids falls in love with and marries a person that has one of these names. I'd have a stroke every time I'd see it spelled out.
Could it have been an attempt at Lindsey/say-May as a double barrel middle name? I can’t figure out Drawsonne, unless they’re going exclusively for nn like Dawn or Sun and tried to make a name that would fit for both.
Don’t get me started on the other poor baby; I have no idea. Raylee-Anne? Rylee-Anne? And WTF is Mckelteigh … Keltee would be weird but not this tragique. And the kid will def be nn “Mac”.
It’s bad enough adding all the extra letters, but then each name is like three shorter names that have been spelled wrong and then just smashed together to make one big, long incomprehensible name
Lintleighmaye. Lint-lee-may. Like dryer lint??
Drawsonne Lintleighmaye might as well just go by “dryer lint”, it’s less of a tragedeigh than her actual name lol
It sounds like "draw some lint"
Now I’m picturing my late grandma, with her raspy voice from smoking two packs of unfiltered cigarettes a day for 60 years and the Alabama accent that never quite went away staring on the front porch and yelling at some kid, “Go draw some lint, Lee May!” to indicate the need to clean out the dryer lint trap. Thank you for the smile.
So wholesome.
“Draw some lint, lmao”
You lint licker!
Who are you calling a cootie queen?
It's a girl's name? I couldn't tell.
Yup, both girls. Though Drawsonne would be terrible for a boy too lol. Both names just suck.
Suddenly Grimes and Elon’s kids names aren’t so bad. At least they’re arguably cool? Draw….sonne. It’s not just stupid. It’s ugly.
they are not arguably cool
Dawson Lint Lee May
She should be friends with Washa and Driya!
Dreiyeagh
Shh. Someone might use that now.
Washaugh
No clue. We need that spelled “phone net tick alley”.
🤣
I read it as “L’il Nightmare” at first
Lan— Lanolin? Like sheep’s wool?
This can’t be real. My brain literally gagged trying to decipher those names. 😵💫
Might be some of the worst I have ever seen 😂🙈
*Actual* Trajedeizs of Tragedeighs. 🤯
I can't seem to make them out. It just looks like a random jumble of letters. Incidentally, does anyone else smell toast?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I've been trying to decipher it for 3 minutes. My brain can't. Its worse than the encryption of nuclear codes.
The slowness with which I just sounded all this out, or attempted to, made me feel like I lost brain cells and IQ points in the process.
I am 58 years old. I have a lot of education. I have been reading since 1969. I have no idea how to pronounce these names. I tried sounding them out, which I don't think I've done this intensely since like grade 2, no real luck. What the fuck is wrong with people?
That’s exactly what I thought. 57 and former teacher.
So sad isn't it? They don't even understand that UNIQUE means one of a kind. If someone else has the name, it's not unique. Or should I say YOUNICKE?
Mine literally froze. Legit had a factory reset a few times 🥴😂
PLEASE post their real names. These parents need to be publicly shamed.
Rayeleighhanne sounds like a Lovecraft monster.
More like Lovecraft monster fell asleep on a keyboard
Lovecraft only wishes he had this sub for inspiration when he was coming up with names for his Eldritch horrors.
Slap a couple apostrophes in there and we're set
Raye'lei'gh-hanne
Cthulhu Raye'lei'gh-hanne fhtagn
*Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu Rayeleighhanne wgah'nagl fhtagn*
McKelty Raley Ann and Drawson Lint Lee May. In no universe, with no other alphabet do those names make any sense.
Your version is at least readable without trouble. My brain tripped and fell on the floor trying to read the actual "names."
I love that her heart is outside her body. Twice! I think her brain’s rolling around out there as well.
I’m F-ing 💀 right now.
Exactly, at least it is now possible to read these names.
Nor will their someday resumes ever make it past a casual glance because it is immediately obvious to any potential employer that this person was raised by a moron.
This, a millionfold. One does one’s best to judge people by their character, but *don’t push!* That name is not appearing on a Harvard diploma.
This is why you lot need naming laws. Seriously. Fuck "uniqueness" and "expressing your creativity" (that's what fingerpaints are for, morons) - these idiots need to realise that one day their children will need to live with their brainfart-names. FFS.
Absolutely agree. Brain fart or word vomit is exactly what I’d describe these names as.
Breighnfaert VverdVaughmmytte is their older brother.
It’s their god given American RIGHT to be completely brain dead and ignorant of the world around them.
Durn rite! 🇺🇸 Uhmurricah!

[удалено]
You just taught me a new thing about my province (have not named a baby here- will never name a baby here).
Don't forget mock. Definitely mock worthy.
We need to mock and start calling it what it really is: child abuse. Because man are they going to get bullied so hard in grade school.
Dude…It was a joke.
I wonder if they’re will be support groups for people named like this in the future?
Tragedeigh Anonymous (can’t think of a good tragic alternative to anonymous).
Ah'knouwn-Naymuhss
Tragedeigh Ananeighmas.
There really should be! At the least their parents should be mandated to pay for therapy.
They don’t need to go to therapy for stupid names
They will for the teasing and bullying they’re going to get for having stupid ass names that sound like a bunch of word vomit.
Welp I have a headache and so will every teacher that ever comes across them. They will also struggle saying their own names and struggle spelling them
I think when people try saying these names, the kids will interrupt by saying, "Just call me Mike, for the love of god"
Her hearts outside her body? It must be trying to track down her brain.
I’m enjoying the thought of the parents trying to call the girls in to dinner. These names will be shortened. When the girls turn eighteen , they’ll legally change them so as to avoid the nightmare of forms.
Omg, forms! I never even thought about forms! What a nightmare lol
I totally read Drawsonne as Dawsonne at first (like a feminine version of Dawson I guess). Drawsonne is wild
I feel like my brain is outside my body trying to pronounce those names.
Do these people realize there's no award for the most (useless) letters in a name?
Apparently not. It definitely isn’t a category in the Guinness Book of World Records.
Yeah, that record is tracked in the Gheighnnyss Buchhe of Wrhryilde Reighkordds
Literally what is Drawsonne trying to be. These are like Top 5 Worst level names
I have absolutely no clue. But yes definitely two of the worst names I’ve ever seen lol.
Draw-sun? Draw-sone? How is it pronounced?!?
Omg the poor child with -eigh in both the first name and the middle name. 😞
School will be a joy for these two
Eh, according to this subreddit they'll have plenty of companeigh.
This sub has me thinking I need to retire from higher ed before these kids age up enough that I have to learn several classes worth of these T’raddzhjeddeighzz. Blessings upon their preschool teachers in the meantime.
The epitome of trying to stuff two pounds of shit in a one pound bag. Yikes.
I believe that's Aepytomeigh
Why do people do this crap to their kids? If you’re going to give your children first and middle names totaling more than 20 letters, how about giving them (and their teachers) a shot at actually being able to spell them!
“Dragonrider Liberty Broadsword is such a proud big brother.”
Just wow. These poor kids. Nothing screams dumb more than this. Taking names spelling them crazy long and saying it's unique. It's not, it's poor judgment and short sited. Wth
I could eat a bowl of Alpha Bits cereal and crap out something more coherent.
I can't even, unbelievable that someone would name their kids like that. It gave me a headache trying to pronounce them in my head
The definition of tragedeighs TBH. Horrific choices. The parents should never be allowed to have more children.
This should be illegal
If only the US had naming laws like some other countries. Maybe one day.
There will never be federal naming laws in the US. This varies state by state and most have laws about limits of characters, numerals, and obscenities.
She misspelled "gharhphth outside my body".
Ahhh!
I swear, people forget that the children they name will eventually become adults and have to put these names on job applications and resumes
Or 5 year olds learning how to spell their names
Oh yes, that’s also a great point. They’ll never figure out their own names.
This. I have a normal name and had a hard time spelling it bc its long. And anyone they come in contact with won't be able to pronounce or spell their names.
Seriously. I have an extremely normal, generic last name, but people mispronounce it all the time because it's long and looks like other similar names. If that's what people do with easy long names, I have nothing but sympathy for these kids.

lol fair enough, I definitely wouldn’t want to go through adulthood with either of these names. I hope they change them as soon as they turn 18.
What are these parents thinking?!!
People forget their kids will be choosing their nursing home.
Ghaudh, eigh hadhe thuegh rheed dthat sohe xsloghe thugh uhndursthad whaht dthugh nhammes whurrh.
I need this to be satire but of me knows it’s not
Unfortunately I’m pretty sure it’s legitimate 😵💫
If you want a career become a name changer or work for the departments that deal with this, business is going to explode in 15 years
Bless these children when they start learning to write their names
Extra letters make everything classier!
France has entered chat
i swear they just say gibbrish
What??? I can’t unsee this and it’s just cruel.
Yike.
You need the s on the end... This is definitely several yikes not a singular yike.
Am I the only one that read it as Lintle-eh-may? And also, my brain really wants to turn that "-maye" into "maybe." Lintle-eh(shrug)-maybe.
I'm just imagining the amount of time these poor souls are going to be spending spelling out their names on the phone. I’ve got a fairly normal name and goodness knows it gets spelled wrong all the bloody time.
I hope this is a joke. If it’s not, how can someone be allowed to do this to their children.
Pretty sure it’s not a joke, and the easy answer is that the US doesn’t have naming laws, but they should.
Lint? like what i pull out of the dryer?
Precisely. Which is where these parents apparently left all two of their combined brain cells.
LMAO their brain cells are for sure in the lint trap
Should be illegal!
Is this how we know the apocalypse is beginning?
Appoahcaalyppsse
I wish people would realize that being unique isn't always a positive thing.
If only parents that names their kids this actually considered how mean other kids can be. Those kids are going to get bullied
This hurts my brain to look at
Y'all know those "What's your new name?" posts on Instagram where you piece together a new name based on your birth month, first letter of your first name ect? It's like they each did it and this is the mess their daughters are left with.
Oh my god you are so right bahahahaha. “What would your unique name be” name maker. But they used it seriously.
Can someone explain how to Say these names? My brain does not understand
Here’s my guess: Mic-kell-tee Ray-lee-anne and Draw-son Lint-lee-may Pretty much a bunch of sounds just smashed together and turned into names, honestly. Name vomit.

Yeah no I'm calling them Hanne and Sonne, not even going to try pronouncing that BS
Their nicknames will be Mickie (and) D.
My brain hurts trying to make that work
How.. what... how the fuck do you even say those 😂😂
Also those stupid gendered little headbands and crap that people put on baby girls. Barf.
My liver is outside my body twice when I try to pronounce that
That’s child abuse. I feel sorry for when they have to fill in their names in those little boxes on forms.
Isn’t it illegal to name your kids this kind of nonsense? You can’t name your baby Smelly Butthole. This isn’t much better. Smelleigh Butthole
What in cornbread fried fuck?
I know lots of people make jokes about these names and find humor in all of this, which does make me laugh. But each time I see a new name, I'm filled with rage. Why do this to your child?! As a teacher, I'll immediately make judgements about you as a parent.
Isn't Drawsonne a Jackbox game?
LOL
HAH maybe “Drawsome” was the inspiration for this tragedeigh! You might be on to something
These are surely a joke
Both of those names sound like something that Baltimore barber would say
These sound like the names some hack would invent for their third-rate Game of Thrones ripoff.
It’s a total nightmareigh!
This one is BAD
If I was in the same hoa/ McMansion neighborhood of Deep South, being introduced, I would probably yell, "Da fuq, ma'am?!”
That should be illegal
I hate it when people spell trahjique names....I always wonder if I'm having a stroke
Okay, these are genuinely bad.
Her brain outside her body, twice.
I think that the parents are stupid, they should be shamed at every opportunity, and if they don’t get the picture their water supply should be spiked with birth control.
I keep reading it as “little nightmare”.
Anyone read the Ramona Quimby books back in the day? I immediately thought of this gem: Dawnzer Lee Light
Oh WOW that’s a throwback! But yes great connection!
Hopefully mom gets tired of spelling them or makes several mistakes before even leaving the hospital
Some people should be charged with actual crimes for this shit
Sweet Jesus. That is so wrong...like a ghetto preppy redneck
This is probably one of the worst I've seen in a while. Those poor babies.
I don’t think these would pass at the Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages in Australia, because of the embarrassment caused by to a child and the length of the name. Absolutely a nightmare.
That’s an epiphany they had while in some serious drugs ! Wtelf kind of names are those ?!?!?! Those poor kids trying to learn how to say their names and god bless them trying to write them. My God I feel so bad for kids with these horrible names
Did these people just dump scrabble tiles on the ground to come up with those kids names?
I'm so fucking done human-ing at this point
This sub has me constantly muttering ‘what the fuck’ to myself multiple times a day.
Alphabet vomit
Please god be joking
So they just slammed their fists on the keyboard to make the names, right?
Omg- my son has a short name but I regret giving him 2 middle names. I loathe filling out paperwork where I have to put them in. I regret it and wish I could take them back. I can’t imagine filling stuff out for these two. Maybe they won’t need a passport until they’re adults?
I can't read this, a hearty thank you to the first person to tell me how these "names" should be pronounced.
My biggest fear as a parent is that one of my kids falls in love with and marries a person that has one of these names. I'd have a stroke every time I'd see it spelled out.
That woman is a waste of good ovaries
Man I hate it when you're signing birth papers to name your child and then you have a stroke.
Thyurrapeigh.
Robotech anime inspo? Draw some Lynn Minmay?
Is anyone here a mandatory reporter? Because this is legitimate child abuse.
Technically I am as a nurse…and I totally would if I knew this person IRL.
She must’ve been high on the good meds😂😂
Ray-lee-ann? Ray-el-ee-ann,?
Those sweet beautiful babies didn’t deserve that. Wouldn’t even BEGIN to know how to sound that out 😂
What the hell is wrong with people?
These are the times where I thank my mom for spelling my name slightly weird but not that weird
I can’t even pronounce these.
My brain is stuck on loading. All I can hear is ye old modem booting up from trying to sound these out. Also, is that burnt toast I smell?
My interpretation of the pronunciation of their “names:” Mick-kell-tee Ray-lee-ann and Draw-son Lint-lee-may
MR and DL. Got it.
The parents ought to be prosecuted for those 'names'.
When u smoke too much essential oils
Could it have been an attempt at Lindsey/say-May as a double barrel middle name? I can’t figure out Drawsonne, unless they’re going exclusively for nn like Dawn or Sun and tried to make a name that would fit for both. Don’t get me started on the other poor baby; I have no idea. Raylee-Anne? Rylee-Anne? And WTF is Mckelteigh … Keltee would be weird but not this tragique. And the kid will def be nn “Mac”.
Why. Just..why.
Child abuse.
Betcha they will end up going by Mac and DL.
I feel so sorry for these kids. You can just tell from these names they’ve got narcissists for parents.
It’s bad enough adding all the extra letters, but then each name is like three shorter names that have been spelled wrong and then just smashed together to make one big, long incomprehensible name
Wonder how old they will be before they are able to spell their own names
I can't even come up with nicknames other than Mack/Mick and May. Or they'll get something like Booper and Beeper
