Just so you don’t think that I only want to pick on U.S. Parents with terrible baby naming skills, here’s some evidence of moniker madness North of the border.
6,440 girl names and 5,134 boy names were bestowed in Alberta in 2007. Here are a few of the more unusual ones:
Girl Names
Aruba, Aunesty
Butterfly
Chaos, Charlemagne, Coltanna
DaKayDa
Eckoe, Ellexis, Emma-Star-Ulaniq
God’s
Halo
Jedhi, Jurnee
Kalifornia
Legacy, Lexxannah
Manning, Million, Morningstar
Nigma

Wes-Leigh, Whisper
Xyrhl
Zamber, Zamzam
Boy Names
Ambiious, Atlas
Bienvenito, Blue-Quill, Bluesky
Chancellor, Courage, Cowboy
Elilei, Ewuak
Felony, Frandon, Furious

Rainbow, Ripkin, Ryott
Slim, SyliceVirgil

Xnox
Zedric, Zero
The Dada Drummer feels a bit dizzy from this list. But I do have a few questions....
Do you think Jedhi and Ewauk are siblings? What about Manning and Ripkin?
How will babies Aunesty and Ambiious every learn to spell?
Can God's give self-esteem guidance to little Zero?
I guess I know how you decorate a nursery for baby Tutu, but what does baby Felony's room look like?
And this just in for the parents of Emma-Star-Ulaniq and Obsidian-Angel! The hypen called and it's PISSED!
