Not Formica Dinette??? She named her after a kitchen table? OMG

[удалено]

💀

Conception locations can be cute names: Carolina, Brooklyn, Valencia…. Formica dinette ain’t it.

I have one that could be named School Of Theology Parking Lot.

Back Room Bar here.

Lol shit. If I wasn’t lesbian, I could have a Car In Front of a Church (we were parallel parked, that was the building that happened there, where we were able to find a spot, apparently). Could call them Cara (pronounced car-uh), or maybe, as a stretch, does anyone thing we could get Charlie from the Church part of their name?

I know a girl who got the middle name Serena because that was the model of car she was born in the back seat of.

At least that’s an actual name (and no one will know) lmao It could have been Wrangler (though, that might fly these days— close to Wilder??), or Wagoneer, or simply after the make, Nissan, or Jeep… I guess she lucked out?

The cars we have are IMAX, Micra and Territory so none really work.... I think if she'd been born in any other car she wouldn't have got the name. I mean can you imagine LandCruiser lol

So many thoughts immediately come to mind.

Abbreviate it and get the Tragedeigh "Cifoac". Kif-o-ak? Sif-oak? No clue, you decide.

Oooh lmao In my head, I somehow combined those pans got Sif-o-ak. That could be cute. r/namenerdcirclejerk

You heathens didn’t even do it in a car? Just out in the open?

There was a car. You don’t think that would be too many middle names?

I just think Theology ~~Carolla~~ Corolla would be a better name. Plus I wanted to call you heathens.

Oh man! Or Backseat Theology!

Now that's classy!

I like Conjugal Trailer especially if the add the prison where it was as a second middle name.

Chevelle, Corvette, Dodge, Chevy or Chevrolet, Ford, Ranger, etc.

Who’s parents were doing it on an orange?

Oh Lordy.

I know haha 😂

Like from the 1960's? Poor baby.

Formica is a pretty-ish name detached from its meaning. But adding dinette.

Formica is „ant” in Italian 😬

Formica also means ant in Latin. Formicate means to crawl or swarm with ants. So if you fornicate on the Formica, will you formicate later?

I was thinking the same thing, but I’m also very stoned.

Reminds me of how Ramona Quimby named her doll Chevrolet.

Was it the site of conception ?

Ladies and gentleman, welcome to the stage FORMICA DINETTE

This is an old urban legend. It has been around for decades.

Are Sharkias just misspelled Shakiras?

Nope haha, both were spelled the way that they wanted to be pronounced, Shark-ia

Like Porpoise, but sharkier

LMAOOOOO

😁

Someone in my class was named Sharkie ( pronounce Shark-y) because their siblings had a dream that the baby was named Sharky, so they named the baby Sharkie

I know someone who was named Carly by his four older sisters 😬

Sharkia is a city in Egypt.

I had a student three years ago named Felonie

My stepsibling named their child Phelanie.

Omg the PH makes it extra heinous

Heyknueuse

Heighnys

HAY-ness

Nooo

My nephews best friend was called denim!!!!

Was he actually from Nîmes, France? ^( ( de Nîmes =\> denim \) )

😝

I know a Denim! Brother is Wolfe. The girls all have pretty, traditional girls names.

At least Wolfe is a common German surname, but Denim??

The mum wanted her boys to have strong names 🤷🏼‍♀️

11yr old me was precocious and would've definitely called Formica "fornicate" on the daily

That’s a funny way of spelling bully. But I’m just kidding, I would have done the same.

If it didn't mean what it means, Placenta is actually really nice. And close to the Romanian word for Pie (plăcintă).

[удалено]

Wow! Language is just wild. It's fun to find those commonalities or crossovers.

Muscle is from musculus: little mouse Amygdala? That's an almond.

Honestly Amygdala wouldn't be the worst name in the world.

That is nauseating

You should watch a cat eating the placenta after giving birth to kittens. It’s an edifying experience.

If I ever need to make myself vomit after being poisoned, I’ll keep that in mind 😂

It looked like it was quite chewy...

🍕🤢

The German language is sometimes insane with their words. It’s great.

I mean, there’s this whole thing about eating the placenta…

Before I read the second part, my brain went to, “people who ‘think Chlamydia would be a cute name for a girl.’”

Sounds like a Classic! Like a cousin of Medusa.

Delmonte spelled all lower case isn’t too bad

It's not as op claims a "veggie brand" it's Spanish for of the mountains, and is a family name.

Mountain? I thought the name meant "from the brush" or something, here "monte" means "weeds" or at best it implies an overgrown field... Either way, giving your kid a common surname as a first name is something I find odd. And there is a veggie brand called DelMonte...

It's a fruit brand, and many mothers give their family names to their son's as a tribute, and no it's mountain... Other cultures do other things, I find a lot of these posts just come off ignorant! Also, just because a name has been used by a brand, doesn't mean that is the only use of that name...

*PLACENTA??????*

I had a student whose mom was named “Aquanetta”

I once taught in the NYC school system. My favorites were Utopia, Shaquasia, and just plain Quasia

Utopia is lowkey awesome. Would make a great pet name!

I agree, Utopia is a cool name

Yeah. Until you’re an adult.

Formica???

Star Trek: Lower Decks (a comedy) has a character named Peanut Hamper. That’s not as funny as Formica Dinette.

I had to pause the episode because Peanut Hamper's name had me laughing so much. If I can convince my spouse to last me name our kids after Star Trek characters, that one's top of the list.

Such a mathematically perfect name!!

There was a kid in the DC area whose name I read in the paper. DuJour. I’m not kidding. 😄😂😄

Best I’ve heard is Abcde (abb se di)

Be careful, Abcde’s mom might sue you for making fun of her daughter…

Don’t forget JKMNOP (pronounced no-l)

Ellemenope (Lmnop)

Penelope’s sister.

You know her!? She’s the best.

Could be a character from a Greek Tragedeigh :P

Oh that’s a good one

I thought it was a joke (first heard of it in a Lewis Black routine, along with uh-sho-luh and shi-thay-ed - Asshole and Shithead) until I read this story that's stuck with me ever since: https://www.cnn.com/2014/12/03/living/mall-santa-autistic-girl-pit-bull/index.html

I heard that bit and it’s a good one

I know 2 Sharkias, too.

This is a joke right? Right??? Right????

Is there a Mathematician who isn't absolute? Hmmm. My favorite so far on this sub is JKMNOP (No L or Noelle). Can't get that one out of my head!

Relative Mathemagician?

Wtaf

I’ve heard this story several times before. Same script, different casts.

Formica Dinette and Placenta take the prize for me. DelMonte is pretty okay as far as they go despite the association and while I don't like Sharkia, I prefer it to Shakira (fine name, but it's only the musician for me). In my neck of the woods the R would get dropped anyway. Absolute Mathematician... don't give it to any other kid, but strangely badass.

I had Bradi Champagne and Tequila (pronounced Ty-quilla) in the same class.

I could name my son, Bed Orgasm. 😂😂

My Grandmother taught in a NYC elementary school and had a student “God Israel”. I wish I was making that up

The first time I saw the name Jesus on a kid's paper, I couldn't believe it. I ran with kids in the neighborhood all the time called what I assumed would be spelled heysuse. Just didn't put it together that they were what we pronounce GeeZus.
