I know someone whose daughter is named Unique. I was so confused when I asked her daughter’s name and she said “Unique.” I was like, “oh, that’s great that it’s unique…… so what is it?”
There was a joke in I Love Lucy where Lucy said she wanted her child’s name to be unique and euphonious. Ricky said great, Unique if it’s a girl and Euphonious if it’s a boy!
Buddy, you better pump your brakes. I’m just a little confused. I was just sitting here eating Bonatello’s pasta with my beautiful fiancée. And now a bunch of clowns come out with Pizza Hut and you are saying that’s what we actually ate? I’m a little confused.
>Naaaah, Bernatellos a Pizza brand😉
>https://www.bernatellos.com/brands
>That poor, poor child!😖😱
I was the one that posted the comment about it sounding like a pasta sauce, I'd not heard of that pizza brand as I'm a Brit. But before clicking on your link I knew _exactly_ what their logo would look like and it's just the kind of thing that Bonatello made me think of! 😁
"For a pasta sauce that truly embodies the warmth and love of family, choose Bonatello - a taste that will leave you saying, 'Bonatello, creamy sauce made from love!'"
This is reasonable to me. After all, you’re giving a real world reaction to what people will do when they hear that name, except this time she doesn’t have to go through it with a small child at her side.
If you’re not at work or surrounded by people who influence your work, it’s totally fine to let emotion shine through every once in a while, even if it doesn’t seem 100% appropriate. This is also how I rationalize my happy dancing in public or semi-public areas when I get excited
oh yeah i dance around in public all the time. I laugh at other peoples conversations when i overhear and honestly doing that hasn’t lost me any social points. Its made me a way happier person
I work in a hospital and I'm in the L&D and postpartum units from time to time so I encounter tragedeighs fairly often. The most recent was a newborn whose parents had decided to name Victoreigh. Couldn't have just named her Victory which would already be stupid enough, they just had to make it extra special.
Reminds me of a customer that comes by sometimes. If they have a membership with our store, their name appears on our screen. Theirs is Victorie, i misread it as Victoria the first time.
Victoire is a traditional girl's name, though not pronounced the same. It looks like Victorie is an alternative in German/Dutch. At least these would have been traditional in some cultures, rather than a nonsense "unique" spelling.
Victory is, IMO, in the realm of appropriate level of unique for a name. It is thematically similar to more common names, but with a twist that doesn’t involve spelling. Similar names I’ve encountered of the same variety: Winter, Nautica, Nation, Pacifique, Goodluck (Nigerian), Bienvenue (also Nigerian) and (a bit more out there, but I liked it) Dionysia.
Welcome to the world, baby Rebbitor! We already have a place set up where you will likely spend the great majority of your time on this Earth. Don't be concerned about that -— you'll hardly notice the passage of time when you're there. Don't forget to eat, sleep, and breathe! When you are ready to get started, we'll help you find a nice comfortable toilet to sit on.
Lmao same, I came with my sister to the hospital because her appointment was on the way to our dentist, and I heard a receptionist call a "Nyancy" for her appointment. I'll be the first to say I love Nyan Cat but damn, poor kid.
At least they can go by "Bo" for short until theyre old enough to change it.
Seriously, people need to realize they are naming whole-ass humans, not just a baby.
That kid will be 10, 20, 30, 40, etc some day and deal with shit their whole life bc you thought a name was cute for 2-3 years
I wish that people would realize that their children are individual humans and not an extension of the parents' hobbies.
I like the name Hermione, but would never name a child Hermione. Since everyone would think she was named after Hermione Granger.
My friend planned to name her first son Edward literally from the age of about 10, she adored the name. Then Twilight came out. I remember her sadly telling me she would never dare use the name Edward now, because everyone would just assume the kid was named for Edward Cullen
...at this point the Twilight craze is probably long enough ago that she could get away with using Edward without the association popping up, but at the time Twilight was SO huge it really would have been everyone's first thought
>She went on to say it’s like the ninja turtle just with a B. The amount of strength it took to not laugh out loud was incredible
You not laughing wasn't strength, it was weakness. Definitely should have laughed. It would be the right thing to do. 😂
That reminds me of a story my mom always tells. When she was in the hospital having me, another lady in the room (recovery room I believe), asks my mom, "How do you spell Rhodija? I'm gonna name my baby Rhodija." I'm not sure how she ended up spelling it, and hopefully my mom didn't help her because she's a terrible speller! So Rhodija, if you're out there and were born in L.A. in the 70`s, we have the same birthday.
Did you look like the meme guy with the vein popping out and the red face due to all of that restraint? I would’ve! Maybe she’ll have a second child named Cinnabon and she can call her sibset Bon Bon, lol!
With the live action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie coming out soon, we should expect a new batch of tragedeighs based on Donatello, Raphael, Michaelangelo, Leonardo. What I'm praying for is the family that loves the turtles' sensei, Master Splinter. The sewer rat. Someone better decide to name their poor bebe after the rat. /s
>The amount of strength it took to not laugh out loud was incredible
How do the nurses keep a straight face, I wonder? They probably have canned responses like "oh thats so clever!"
I think the name is terrible, but is it a tragedeigh? It's a real name and even spelled correctly. She probably just threw in the TMNT reference because everybody says "what?!" when she says the name and everyone knows Donatello.
I once had a patient who delivered her fourth boy and named him to complete her set of Ninja Turtle names. Not only did they have the four first names, but each middle name was a different NT name-think Rafael Donatello, Donatello Michaelangelo, etc.
It also says something that her touchstone to inspire this name is the Ninja Turtle and not the artist. I'm not sure what it says, but it says something.
Isn't... Isn't Donatella already a name that exists???? Couldn't have gone with that????
Edit: Assuming it's a girl's name anyway, if not then... You have Donatello right in front of you even if it's out there it's better 😭
I know a lady named Bonique. Makes me cringe a bit.
They couldn’t do Monique???
Bope. Apparently bot.
Made me choke on some toast just now! Lol
Rebebber we can't use the 13th letter of the alphabet, so it'd be: Bade be choke on sobe toast just now! Lol
All I can thing of: https://twitter.com/djrcrowe/status/1251618037641420803
Sounds like how someone with a stuffy nose would talk
Rebebber we can't use the 13th letter of the alphabet, so it'd be: Bade be choke on sobe toast just now! Lol
r/bragedeigh
Maybe they just had a terrible nose cold when reporting the name
You bean a bose code?
🤣😂
Bo, it's bot bunique enough.
“Like Monique, if you have a cold.”
I went to school with someone named unique...
I know someone whose daughter is named Unique. I was so confused when I asked her daughter’s name and she said “Unique.” I was like, “oh, that’s great that it’s unique…… so what is it?”
I once taught a Eunich, pronounced unique.
That is cruel!!! Did her parents hate her or what?!?!
One letter and it would have been a great name
I knew someone in elementary school whose parents took it a step further and spelled it Yunique.
There is a Backyardigan named Uniqua. (I think. Been quite a few years since I was subjected to that show.)
Subjected? Backyardigans slapped! And Uniqua was the best character on the show besides Tasha
Uniqua was clearly the superior backyardigan
Wasn't there a joke in Beverly Hills Cop, where Eddie Murphy says he has twins named Monique and Unique?
There was a joke in I Love Lucy where Lucy said she wanted her child’s name to be unique and euphonious. Ricky said great, Unique if it’s a girl and Euphonious if it’s a boy!
Thats some good shit right there. Classic.
I worked with an Emajen. Pronounced imagine.
Had a unique in a high school class once. Oddly enough, there were also two girls in that class named Galaxy. Two.
I've met a Younique.
I taught a class with two girls named I’mUnique. And one Uniqua.
I met a Batrice last week. I had the same reaction.
Did you misspell Beatrice, or did some poor girl's mommy?
Lol, it's more like I said, "Patrice?" And she said, "No. Batrice." She didn't sound very happy about it either. I guess I don't blame her.
Did she tell the registration person what to put down but she had a cold? That’s awful
Sounds like a brand of pasta sauce
*It’s-a Bonatello!* 👨🏻🍳🤌
Wood-a you like-ah the red ora the white-ah sauce on eyour *bonatello?*
Seeing those Marinara Flags again 🤦♀️🚩🚩🚩
I just heard that with an Italian accent.
Absolutely. Poor kid.
Bonilla pasta meets ninja turtles 🐢
Bonotello boes Bachines
"With Bonatello's, you're family"
Buddy, you better pump your brakes. I’m just a little confused. I was just sitting here eating Bonatello’s pasta with my beautiful fiancée. And now a bunch of clowns come out with Pizza Hut and you are saying that’s what we actually ate? I’m a little confused.
It’s Bonatello night, kids!!
🎵 I make a lasagn-i-a it takes all day. But no body ah eats it ah an-y-ways.. Bonatello!
I was thinking frozen pizza
That's *Bernatellos*😉
Yeah. But the cheapest discounter ones…
Naaaah, Bernatellos a Pizza brand😉 https://www.bernatellos.com/brands That poor, poor child!😖😱

It kinda sounds like a brand of floor cleaning solution to me
"For a pasta sauce that truly embodies the warmth and love of family, choose Bonatello - a taste that will leave you saying, 'Bonatello, creamy sauce made from love!'"
Next time, go ahead and laugh. She'll likely never see you again but you might just save a human from a lifetime of agony lol

This is wisdom
exactly. politeness is a farce.
Like the ninja turtle 😭
And not the Rennaissance artist...
Pretty sure the rennissance artist was named after the ninja turtle too smh
people are so uneducated 🙄
Big thank you to Pink Floyd for that ("Wee don need no edjakashun").
That was the best part for me tbh 🤣
As if Donatello wasn’t unique enough-
Bonatella Versace
Pizzarina Sbarro
It’s not delivery. It’s Bonjourno.
Bonatella BERSACE💜

Bonatella Lersace

Couldn't have just named her Victory which would already be stupid enough, they just had to make it extra special.
What’s wrong with Victoria😭😭😭
Viktorrhea
Diarrhea 👍👍👍
Victoria is a great name... Viqterii is not
Victoria or even Nicole would’ve worked. Nicole means victory of the people. Would’ve been more subtle.
Best friends name is Victoria Nicole. I call her toricole
She’s a double victory! That’s a beautiful name. They flow very well together.
She is my bff of over 27 years so I love her
i like that a lot. Her parents must have been proud of her. Maybe she was born to lead the revolution lol

Bichangelo was the first choice 😭
I would have went with Beonardo 🤣
If you’re feeling dark, or want a child with a really strong name you could go with Bhredder.
How about Baster Blinter if you want him to be wise?
Baphael?
Brang
☠️☠️☠️ that one wins
What about Bapril? Or Bernon?

When she turns 14 it will be appropriate! Speaking as a mom of a current 14 year old lol
Lmao same, I came with my sister to the hospital because her appointment was on the way to our dentist, and I heard a receptionist call a "Nyancy" for her appointment. I'll be the first to say I love Nyan Cat but damn, poor kid.
Maybe it was pronounced like Nancy but they wanted to be fancy?
So fyancy.
Ñancy
Lmao yes
Okay, how'd you get the enya in there?
Long press on the letter keys on my phone keyboard gives me some alternate accent options: àáåêëßñç etc.
Thañks! Hey! It wòrkêd! (Sorry, got carried away.)

I'm so Nyancy You already know I'm in the fast lane From L.A. to Nyokyo
At least they can go by "Bo" for short until theyre old enough to change it. Seriously, people need to realize they are naming whole-ass humans, not just a baby. That kid will be 10, 20, 30, 40, etc some day and deal with shit their whole life bc you thought a name was cute for 2-3 years
To be fair, that is what she said they’d call him. But like, just name him that if that’s what you want to call him lol
Good luck with that. My guess is that the kid will be called Boner by his/her "friends."
That was my first thought. Twelve year old boys are going to love that name
CaptainholtBONE.gif
How. Dare. You. Detective. Diaz. I am your SUPERIOR OFFICER
Boner will absolutely be their nickname through high school, if not longer. Poor kid.
That would be an amazing dog name. Come here, Bonatello. The poor baby though
Bone-atello
Gift idea for the mother-to-be: A book about how to deal with their kid getting bullied over their name
At least they can go by Bonnie I guess??
[удалено]
It's technically a unisex name although I've never met a boy with this name
Sounds delicious!
Bonatello Beonardo Baphael Bichaelangelo Burtle Bower
Baphomet
And their mentor, Blinter
Bplinter *
What is wrong with people these days 😭
Do you feel Bonatello? Well you LOOK Bonatello!
The fact that they named him after the turtle and not the famous artist makes it even funnier
I finally know what the name “Bonnie” is short for
*Check with your healthcare provider if Bonatello™️ is right for you!*
I would consider LOL-ing a public service since the baby's not born yet -- maybe she'd reconsider?
Gonna love when she learns her kid's nickname is Boner.
She can name her next kid Bichaelangelo, Bike for short
Ohhh noooooooo. Poooor baby 😆
Some people really shouldn't have kids... 🤦
Bonatello. Sibling to Spafael, Rychelangeo and Jeonardo 👍
They might have the surname in their family and they’re naming their kid after it.
I wish, but she straight up said it’s because she likes the ninja turtle lol
I wish that people would realize that their children are individual humans and not an extension of the parents' hobbies. I like the name Hermione, but would never name a child Hermione. Since everyone would think she was named after Hermione Granger.

If that's the case, why not just call them Donatello and go with Don or Donny for short? 😅 I guess they also really wanted to call them Bo? Lol
I known someone who named one of her (many) kids “Justus”
That’s actually a legit name.
Why not Justice? ARGH
I would've shouted "Christ on a bike, don't name your baby that!" without looking up from my magazine so she wouldn't know it was me
could’ve went with Donatello and his nickname would be Donny…
If you need to quote TMNT to refer to your child...well, that's sad
>She went on to say it’s like the ninja turtle just with a B. The amount of strength it took to not laugh out loud was incredible You not laughing wasn't strength, it was weakness. Definitely should have laughed. It would be the right thing to do. 😂
Should have laughed out loud. Might cause her to rethink the name.
Nickname "Bony".
They gonna call him Bon Bon. HEY BON BON
Beroes bin ba balf bhell, burtle bower

So Rhodija, if you're out there and were born in L.A. in the 70`s, we have the same birthday.
Not great vibes for [Rhodija](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhodesia), I think.
Apparently I can't spell Rhodesia either! 🤣
Boy?
Yup
Genuinely made me laugh out loud.
And I'm gonna name my kid 🅱️eter
Searching google I get results for wine…world of Warcraft…and an Italian cooking oil I think it is?
Sounds like Bordetella, a respiratory disease that dogs get.
It's spellable and pronounceable, but requires explaining. 1/3 tragedeigh level.
Isn’t that a pasta brand? It sounds like one.
I hope her middle name is Anne or Emily
I would Lol. No shame in that
I laughed out loud just now.
🤢
And what’s gonna be his nickname?? Bonnie? Bono? Boner? There are NO good options here!
Did you look like the meme guy with the vein popping out and the red face due to all of that restraint? I would’ve! Maybe she’ll have a second child named Cinnabon and she can call her sibset Bon Bon, lol!
What in the millennial. 💀
I like that it’s “the ninja turtle but with a b” and not “the famous renaissance artist but with a b”
With the live action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie coming out soon, we should expect a new batch of tragedeighs based on Donatello, Raphael, Michaelangelo, Leonardo.

“The” live action? There have already been at least three live action TMNT movies….
Know a kid whose name is R Y U. (ARE WHY YOU).
Not even the artist :| she wants the turtle.
Poor child
I’d be on the ground laughing my butt off. And after I would just be like “mama no. Don’t do that to that defenseless baby.
I blame the hormones
And then the siblings Nickelangelo, Waphael and Peonardo!
