I went to high school with twin girls named Margarita and Daiquiri, and I used to work with a guy named Darth. My best friend in college had a roommate named Gazelle, and I heard about a guy who named his kid Espn (after the sports network). My nephew has a little girl in his class named, I shit you not, Codeine.

People name their kids weird shit all the time. All things considered, Thor and Loki are pretty normal.

I would be so pissed at my parents if they named me after an analgesic or a channel wtf these poor souls.

Yeah, I didn't believe it at first when my nephew told me. We were having his fifth birthday party at my apartment because my complex has a pool, and he was telling me all of the kids he wanted to invite to his party. But when he told me he wanted a girl named Codeine to come, I was like "wat." I thought he was mispronouncing his little friend's name, but nope, that's her legitimate legal name. Cute kid, really, but I feel so bad for her. She's going to go through life with everyone doing a double-take when they hear her name.

Margarita is the Spanish form of Margaret, which the drink was named after. So I don't see any problem with that.

Are you sure Gazelle wasn't Gisele?

No, Gazelle was Gazelle. According to her, her parents were hippies.

The thing that stuck with me about Margarita was that her twin sister was named Daiquiri. I probably wouldn't have batted an eye at that if it wasn't for that juxtaposition.

I used to know a customer named Cookie. I felt so bad for her. I mean as nicknames go, fine. And it's cute when they're a baby. But this was a thirty-something woman saddled with the name Cookie.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-22 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
That's really nothing. Cookie was a popular name back in the day. If anything, it's sound pretty outdated for a 30-something.

AYRT.

Really, where/when? (Genuine curiousity here). I can't imagine a trend of Cookies. XD Then again, of someone had told me a few years ago that there'd be a trend of Jayden/Zayden/Ayden(come on, please tell me someone's at least named their kid Raiden), and Neveah/Nevaeh I wouldn't have believed them either.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-23 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yep. Raiden is used quite a bit, according to this site:

My cousin named her daughter Funktisha.

We call her Funky. It drives her mom crazy.

You've gotta be trolling.

Trust me, I wish I was. :|

I used to work with a woman named Princess.

My brother was very close to being named Thor after the superhero. If my father had agreed, he would have been named Thor. I see no problem with it as a real name.
