A man has shared his disgust after hearing what a stranger has named their twins, believing them to be the ‘worst’ monikers imaginable.
He explained how he works for a company that supports school districts and was reading through various documents when he came across the monikers.
They were so ‘bad’, he decided to share them on Reddit’s tragedeigh thread, the term given to describe a name “deliberately misspelled or completely made up to appear more unique than it actually is”.
He said: “They have to be the worst names for twins ever. Going through a list comparing names clicking next like a madman! One name caught my eye and it made me go back a page. The kids name was Kocaine. Worst part is that the student was a twin. The twins name was Kilo. I would never have believed it if I didn’t see it myself.”
While some users shared their shock over the monikers, others listed the ‘tragic’ names they have come across. One user said: “When my daughter was in the NICU there were twin boys – Rhythem and Rhymez. It would have been bad enough without the horrid spelling.”
Another user added: “I knew two girls born on December 25, last name was Smith, girls were named Mary and Chris. That’s the only good matching twin name…” Get it? Sounds like Merry Christmas when you put it all together.
A third user said: “One of the best combos I’ve seen is my mum and her twin sister: Lynnet and Glynnis. AKA Lynn and Glynn. An old friend of mine has two sons – Bryan and Ryan… Might not be a tragedeigh but still”
One more user added: “I know two pairs of twins: Casey and Riley (both girls, but their parents said they were going to use those names regardless of their children being boys or girls) and Dante and Vergil (both boys, their father is obsessed with Devil May Cry).”
Another user said: “I’ve known several sets of twins and one set of triplets. In school, there was Ioanna and Anna (they were Greek), and Edna and Ann. Later, my cousin John was proud father to a set of twins, Angela and Maggie. The triplets were Allan, Alvin, and Albert. Allan was my father.”
