Analise. Love the name but the spelling makes me want to gouge my eyes out. I also loathe Emerson for a girl. Translated it means "son of"... Why would someone do that to a girl? Terrible.

That I know personally, probably a tie between two different schoolmates' daughters, Jazleyne and Jameson (yes, on a girl). I know a Richard Richardson. My BFF knows a Feenix (Phoenix) but I've never met her. My childhood doctor was Dr. Bill Yu and my daughter was delivered by a Dr. Payne, OB.
I can't think of the worst, I just hate the younique spellings or made up names. My SIL's sister's kids have names that are combos of their parents names, they came up with Jas a lyn and Kens lee. (Added spaces just in case). I mean, your daughters don't need parts Kenneth or Jason in their name.
Hm, I don't know any TOO bad, but an old friend has a Nevaeh ::eyeroll:: And a friend of DHs has a M.avrick (yes, spelled like that, but no period).
As an anecdote, there used to be this traffic cop named Officer Speed where I grew up. He was legendary, was well known for pulling EVERYBODY over and being a hardass. My mom received I don't even know how many speeding tickets from him. He's since retired and I think she's gotten her lead foot under control so it's all good
When I worked for the school system we had a John. Not shocking until I was looking over his paperwork and realized his brother had the exact same name. I don't know how they kept them straight because they ended up in the same grade and both went by John.

My ex-student Nemesis will always be #1 for me. I also had a Darling, a Princess, and a Deysy (Daisy) in the same class once. And Delehiny, which was apparently how someone thought Delaney should be spelled.

There was a boy named Blaze on my little brothers baseball team. A girl named Callahan in dds swim class, also a Kayline in the same class. One of my friends has a niece named Adaya. A girl I went to church with named her daughters Oakley and Locke. DH has a childhood friend that named his son Mazin. A girl I went to school with named her daughter Jazzlyn. I know a lot of people who named their kids weird things. :/
I don't even know where to post an intro here! I was on TK/TN/TB since 2003, mostly local boards. I was m_and_m.
