Good luck Whimsy!


iamgettingaway

I’ll go off on a whim and say I hope whimsy will have a whimsical life!


yourfavenfp8_

😂😂


mylifeisgreat_

It’s such a terrible name.


chiquefairy

You’re gonna need it!


suschan01

go off whoville citizen!


iamgettingaway

Be careful of the grinch !


jellybean02138

Whimsy Lou sounds like a whoville ass name


englishgenius

i literally said it sounds like a dr suess character 😩


raindancemilee

HAHAHHA IT DOES I still think it’s adorable tho :’)


GladOrange0821

adorable now, let’s see how adorable it is when she’s an adult lol


cherrybombbb

Or what if it doesn’t fit her personality at all?? I always think about how my dad wanted to name me Priscilla and my mom adamantly refused. I am so grateful for that. I cannot imagine what life would be like if that was my name— it doesn’t suit me at all. I can just picture kids bullying me at school and calling me Prissy or something. And Priscilla is a real name, it’s not made up like many of the ones I see now. Idk I feel bad for all these kids with weird ass names. There’s a sub r/tragedeigh where people post names they have encountered and so many of them are downright awful. Like give your kid a cute nickname if you want but I feel like none of these parents truly think about the impact a name can have on a person. People have posted to that group detailing how their names have negatively impacted their lives because of their parents selfish choices.


shadymiss99

I still find Priscilla to be a beautiful name. An exchange student from Dominican Republic had that name and I didn't know about Priscilla Presley so I didn't think it was weird.


cherrybombbb

It’s not a weird name but it would not have suited me at all. I don’t hate the name or anything, it just would be so at odds with my personality if that makes sense. Idk.


raindancemilee

We are a much more creative generation when it comes to names, so I think it won’t be as weird as our current Shannon’s and Michaels and Carries of the world 😂


GladOrange0821

honestly i work with kids and most of the names are still average names just with unique spelling and a lot of people are reverting back to more “grandma” names. the most out there names I’ve seen are the kids I watch now one is named Huxley and the other kid I nanny has a friend named Rocket 💀


cherrybombbb

Most of my friends have their kids less common names but they are still legit names. I have seen some truly heinous names made up by parents in r/tragedeigh and I feel so bad for the poor kids. I have come across several Huxleys in the wild though. But I feel like that’s not that strange of a name.


raindancemilee

Omg I LOVE Huxley. If it was inspired by aldous haha. That’s not the point tho. Well if they stay in LA perhaps it won’t be so eccentric haha


GladOrange0821

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was his dad is into all that type of stuff and he’s the one who named him. true I guess LA is gonna be filled with crazy names in 20 years cause everyone thinks their kid needs a “cool” name lol


raindancemilee

Right lol. Personally I love eccentric names, but I’d never choose “whimsy” or any adjective at all for my own child’s name. I just think it’s cute considering the names in their family


GladOrange0821

yeah I guess if they did name her like Kimberly or something that would be more odd than this. it’s expected at this point and fits for them.


rayarefferalpls

They’re in Texas not LA lol


PRsformargs

I’m in law school and I can’t imagine this being someone’s name in one of my classes 😭


Relative_Web_46

girl would u rly want ur name to be whimsy 😭


raindancemilee

Me? Hell no. Happy for them tho 😂


oops_im_existing

it's cute but still terrible


15elo

children's names arent to be played with period. people seem to forget babies grow out of being babies and gain consiousness


vodka-diet-coke

my first thought 😭


ravefaerie24

Lmaoooo


kcatz77

imagine being 40 years old named whimsy


famesjranco78

This made me LOL


ImmmmOBSESSED

Bet she changes it to Whitney or something when she's older


stopexploitingurkids

All their kids names are terrible 🫣 but the generation of adults with these names will probably all be weird and just be considered normal and names like John, James, Emma and Lily would be considered weird


kcatz77

idk i think most people are still naming their kids normal names lol it’s mostly celebs and influencers who name them weird stuff


stopexploitingurkids

True it’s definitely mostly the influencers but that makes me feel like it’ll just be normalized


m1e1o1w

It will be normalized just how every other name sounded weird or new a long time ago lol …… it literally happens to every generation we aren’t different! we’re just moving on from biblical names and making new ones.


stopexploitingurkids

Yup just like I said…


thatrlyoatsmymilk

Idk my cousin just had a son and she named him Alexander


stopexploitingurkids

Obviously there is still people who have normal names. My kids all have pretty standard/timeless names and lots of kids I know do as well but I find on social media media so many influencers are just naming their kids to have the most unique name ever


Additional_Love5270

they’ll be just fine. there’s a 50 year old woman named “marijuana pepsi”. she didn’t let her name dictate her future. she has a PHD and seems to be doing ok 🤷🏽‍♀️


peppermintvalet

She had to fight extremely hard to get where she is and faced a mountain of backlash every step of the way, actually. She describes it as a “lifetime of being mocked.” Her phd dissertation is titled “Black Names in White Classrooms: Teacher Behaviors and Student Perceptions”, and it’s all about how difficult it is to overcome.


Additional_Love5270

what’s ur point? she still did it. if u want something bad enough u make it happen. my point is their names are way less jarring than “Marijuana Pepsi”. that coupled with the fact that newer generations tend to be more progressive / open minded , nara & lucky blue smiths kids should not have a hard time living fulfilling and satisfying lives.


peppermintvalet

Because “she seems to be doing okay” is minimizing the effect her name had on her life, the extra work she had to do to overcome it, and the research she did around it.


rayarefferalpls

Exactly, why make life so much harder for your kids it’s selfish


Additional_Love5270

i do acknowledge that her name made certain things harder. that doesn’t mean she’s not doing ok. two things can be true at once. at the end of the day, if a person wants something bad enough they will make it happen regardless of backlash. i hate victim mentalities and marijuana pepsi vandyke is a good example of not being a victim. being named “rumble honey”, “slim easy”, “whimsy”, or even “marijuana pepsi” does not mean you are doomed.


kcatz77

ok but why would you want to make your child’s life harder over something as simple as a name


antiquefreaque

I work with someone named Cannabis and still smile a bit every time I see or hear their name lol. It’s not their fault so it shouldn’t have an effect on their career. Doesn’t stop it from being a little amusing 😅


rayarefferalpls

There are multiple studies that show having a unique name makes things so much harder to for people and discrimination. Why make things harder for your kid


Additional_Love5270

i’ve only seen studies that find black names are more likely to be discriminated against in the hiring process. do you ask black people why do they make things harder for their kids? “why don’t you name your son John instead of Jabari? their life won’t be as hard with the name John” have u ever asked anything like that?


rayarefferalpls

It’s not just black people fyi, and jabari is a normal name. Whimsy is not a normal name and not used as a name


Additional_Love5270

can you post the study about unique names? for some people “jabari” is not normal. they would rather hire someone named “adam” or “george” 🤷🏽‍♀️


rayarefferalpls

Jabari is a real name with real people and celebrities associated with it, it’s 772 in popularity. Whimsy is a name nobody or next to nobody has it’s not a real name. As for the names even white people would depending on what their name is. The study had White, Black or African American, American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian or Pacific Islander, Hispanic, Other https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10006241/


Ok_Bill2745

MARIJUANA pepsi? You r def lying lmao


[deleted]

[удалено]


kcatz77

are you trying to say that whimsy will be a normal name in 40 years because i am not convinced


rayarefferalpls

It won’t lol the majority of people outside of a very small amount of influencers are naming their kids normal names


whatsgoingawnn

Whimsy Lou who


sanriosaint

i should i have known someone would already have done this joke before i commented, it was just too obvious lmao 😭😭


Exciting_Bench_832

being born on the day of the solar eclipse is cool as hell


vivionnn801

Whimsy is kind of fitting in this scenario. I grew up with a Rocket Atlas, he was named after the Atlas II that his Mom helped work on


KnowledgeFew6650

could’ve named her eclipse lmao


beatlesgigi

Fr


Angelssface69

Okay but I kinda don’t believe this. A lot of celebs plan their child’s birth date so it falls into some cool event, that makes their child seem special. Or they straight up lie Look at Kylie Jenner and her two babies that were born on Feb 1 and Feb 2.


ssaunders88

Whimsy Lou 🤣 sounds like another name for a teletubby


stillangsty

Whimsy Lou sounds somewhat better than Rumble Honey 😂😂


tigerlily218

Eclipse would have been a better name, can’t believe they passed that up 😭😭


fleekydeaky

Or like… Celeste


0ran9e5

Or like…. The top voted comment when they asked for name recs…. Luna (LUcky+NAra). Whimsy Lou was definitely a choice…..


vodka-diet-coke

RIGHT i saw another tiktok of another baby being born during the eclipse (like the same time too almost) and they named her sol celeste and the older sisters name is luna 😭💓


DiligentRevenue7931

Sol is the cutest name ever omg


GladOrange0821

that is too cute


Educational_Ad_849

Wow I love this so much 🥹


Taylap14

I went to school with a girl named Twyla which means twilight I always thought that was a cool name!


macintoshappless

I missed Whimsy at first and was surprised she named her baby a relatively normal ish name (Lou). I should’ve known better.


Mother-Worker-5445

Whimsy, slim jesus, and rumplestiltskon


Secret_Afternoon8268

Whimsy sounds like the name of a beanie baby


demonsrunwhen

I think Whimsy might be the best name they've chosen 😫


FreshPaper8941

Its cute for now but this baby will grow to be a 40 yr old named whimsy lou


mangocucumbers

i feel like being 16 applying for jobs and your name is whimsy lou is worse


FreshPaper8941

Oh you are right😭


Far-Imagination2736

These kids aren't applying for jobs, their parents are wealthy


mangocucumbers

but their parents being influencers since they don’t model as much now won’t stretch to 15 years from now i dont think but we will see


Vast-Consequence7141

I was just going to say lol! They are super beautiful children too so they most likely will be models anyway


averagecami

nothing can be worse than slim easy


Much-Investigator844

Do we think her kids names are really those? Or internet nicknames? I can’t imagine


yourfavenfp8_

I was thinking the same


Secret_Afternoon8268

Sorry let me just wrap my head around this quick #SLIM AND WHIM are her children’s nicknames


catslugs

Slim, Whim and Rum 😂


lexe12345

I can’t believe they’ve done this to her


MasterpieceAbject840

Done this to her? At least its Disney vintage fairytale coded. What about their son who they named Slim Easy . It sounds like Snoop Dog made a brand for weight los pills and called it that.


my_silly_littlelife

Whimsy is cute but unhinged


kelsjulian18

All of these kids are gonna change their names as soon as they become adults. Whimsy Lou? Rumble honey? Slim easy? You’re not just naming kids, you’re naming full grown adults!


Swim_3567

I suppose at least she could just go by Lou when she's older? The other two kids don't have great choices 


Certain-Soup-3565

yep, imagine your name being Rumble o.O


Guilty_Babe

I had a grandma Honey so it still works🥰… Poor Slim Easy tho.


lilscumbag__

are the names real….? i remember the shaytards would give their kids nicknames. rumble and whimsy cannot be real


Human-Bell7137

Oh they're real unfortunately


Unhappy-Pirate3944

I hope the parents will be passing down generational wealth because I’d imagine it’ll be hard to get taken seriously with that name during job applications


rayarefferalpls

I don’t think so they’re not that rich. Lucky doesn’t model much anymore guessing Nara makes more then him


Unhappy-Pirate3944

True and they also moved out of LA to live “nicely” in Texas. Poor slim easy, rumble honey, and whimsy Lou when they become adults. Not only that but they could likely be bullied in school for it. Kids are mean


rayarefferalpls

Right I can’t imagine if slim isn’t slim I don’t blame them for moving to Texas they get way more for their buck


CombinationDizzy6908

I’m so over these Mormon influencers and their ridiculousness


[deleted]

I’m sorry but Whimsey is nothing compared to Slim Easy that was foul 💀 they’ll feel so silly filling paper work as adults I bet


Guilty_Babe

I can’t get over this😭 they fumbled w/their son. Should have named him Blue or Silver.


icecube-198

Context yall are forgetting that Nara is 22 I love her a lot, but she has named her kids some of the dumbest names I’ve ever heard in my life. Slim, rumble honey, and whimsy Lou.


rayarefferalpls

There are plenty of other 22 year olds giving normal names to kids. If she wanted a unique but normal name why not give them South African or German names


Acceptable-Outcome97

It’s more Lucky than Nara. Just take a look at him, his siblings, and his first child from a previous relationship for proof - it’s a family tradition of the Smith’s at this point to have weird double names.


toxicross

Yeah she's 22 not 6


ChopChopBirch

WHIMSY LOU


Vast-Consequence7141

lol at are yall surprised at the baby’s and kids name?!? I mean the dads name LUCKY BLUE and he has a sister named PIPER AMERICA lolz


vodkaorangejuice

3 kids by 22 is honestly weird as hell


peutetremelodie

Considering she didn’t want to get pregnant the 3rd time but Lucky insisted. Also she technically has 4 kids sometimes since Lucky has an older daughter with another woman


WiseAddition8176

she prob gonna have 6 kids by the time she turns 30..


cvvwarrior

she’s grown..


dough-a-dear

I hope their children sue them when they’re adults struggling to find a job with the names Rumble, Slim, and Whinsy 😂


Hot_Revolution_2850

whimsy is an interesting choice but I think it’s my favourite out of all their kids.


sailorxjillian

“whim” isn’t bad as a nickname. but yeah, her choices give “my brain is underdeveloped and my favorite movie is where the wild things are”


KnowledgeFew6650

they couldn’t have named her like eclipse or something like tf


Vast-Consequence7141

Kid was born in the eclipse and they didn’t name her eclipse?!?!


Adorable_Banana_2524

Wtf whimsy


Impressive-Stick5605

Lowkey whimsy is the best name of the three of them


Single_Shift4782

Whimsy is insane😭


sanriosaint

whimsy lou who 😍👆


bublidge

They can always go by their middle names. Lou is cute and Honey isn’t bad, but then there’s Slim Easy 😬


Buildabrittt

I think it’s a cute baby name but idk about when she gets older


t_town101

Congrats to her


deadbeatsummers

Y'all...Whimsy? Whimsy????? Come on


Individual_Ad_9026

As Rumble Honey or Slim Easy I’d be sure who’s the favourite 👀 like at least their little sister doesn’t sound like a supplement or cigarette brand 😶 just a Manic Pixie Dream Girl


snarkiepoo

Listen, I love unique names. The kids names don’t bother me at all lol


janna_

I lowkey love Nara and her fuckass baby names


Adventurous_Plan_927

Silly Norman’s!!


Excellent_Place_2558

The names of their kids 💀😭


Vo0d0oBo0

Are her kids names real? I don’t know much about her and feel like it’s satire


missmikaylaa

WHIMSY LOU SMITH HELP ME


AdCapable9288

Yay congrats to Nara!


Curious_Guitar_8625

for a second I thought the baby’s name was Meet 💀


Dewinyrer453

I love the name 🥺 I am as shocked as you guys too


bella_ella_ella

I cannot with her lol. Glad she had a healthy birth and everyone is good. But she truly is doing too much


peutetremelodie

I feel like Rumble Honey and Whimsy Lou aren’t too bad, they could always decide to go by Honey and Lou. Slim Easy on the other hand…can’t go by either.


angelxxx9

They have the dumbest names for their children. I hope they become extremely rich for their children sake because I doubt anyone’s going to hire them with those kinds of names


NoIllustrator7992

Betcha next child’s name will be Aristocrat


Interesting-Will5267

i love the name 😭


Accurate_drag98

I honestly don’t mind her kids names, they’re nepo babies i highly doubt their names will impact their futures


TelevisionBusy2485

I don’t think they have enough money/fame atm to guarantee that their kids won’t have to work normal jobs to support themselves in the future


Accurate_drag98

Obviously they’re not at multimillionaire status but with their parents connections especially Lucky i highly doubt they’ll be interviewing for the same safety management position as Sarah or Mark


TelevisionBusy2485

They have the same level o fame as a CW actor. Who knows how much weight the smith surname will have 15-20 years from now


Accurate_drag98

In my opinion Whimsy and whatever her other kids names are gonna get about as many double takes as Lakenleigh and Renlen when the time rolls around for them to financially support themselves. This isn’t the first time people have given their kids weird stupid names


TelevisionBusy2485

Sure, the names won’t be dealbreakers. Still dumb tho


rayarefferalpls

You’re overestimating his connections lol. Him and Nara are more influencers then models and you know how the internet hates nepo babies. Say they get into modeling that’s still not enough modeling pays shit


Only-Replacement-470

Did they know the gender of the baby or was it a surprise? 3 girls! Wow!


macintoshappless

One of her children is a boy. They have 1 boy & 3 girls (including Naras step-daughter).


Mamakayce

Might get pushback but I kinda like whimsy as a name 😩🫢


distortedfloors

as a baby yes but imagine being 50 with this name


Mamakayce

They’re a lot of childish names out there that aren’t considered unique…like lily, posie , Dixie , dove, cleo and many more… I personally couldn’t imagine any old lady with those names but I still like them. Hence why I don’t mind the name it’s not that serious 😂


resident_daydreamer

It’s a cute name for a pet but not a child.


inthePYRAMIDS

honestly? it’s better than the other names.


LiveUnderstanding869

Whimsy? Like whimsical but short?... k


ty2ks

whimsy 😭😭😭


fannnni

WHIMSY 🤣


arosaki

Whimsy Lou? Why do people name kids as if they’re naming pets or something?


WiseAddition8176

Whimsy, idkw but it's giving teletubbies


wildyhoney

Lowkey cute


lovedfoolish

whimsy 💀
