Throughout history, parents have given their children a vast array of names, ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous. While some names are timeless and universally appealing, others are so outlandish that they can only be described as dumb.
A user asked the forum, what is the dumbest name you’ve ever heard someone give their child? Here are the common responses.
BLESSED AND SAVED

“Orange. It’s not a translation or a nickname but after the fruit itself. People keep thinking his name is George, and he’s just too young to pronounce it correctly, but nope, his parents got their inspiration from the produce department.”
MORONICA

“Dracula. The parents were young meth heads, and thankfully the nurses said Drake sounds much better, and it’s a short version of Dracula after the boy was born.
Drake is alive and well, now 18 years old; parents quit the meth years ago, kinda still a messed up family.”
