A UK mother was left “absolutely devastated” after her daughter’s passport application was denied because she was named after a popular “Game of Thrones” character.
Yeah but it’s also the parents responsibility to give their child a non stupid name that won’t get them ridiculed their whole life.
Parents being quirky with names is how you end up with kids getting bullied forever.
Edit: Glad to see all the people who weren’t bullied downvoting this. My name isn’t even that weird and I still get made fun of for it. Don’t give your kids stupid names.
Kids will make fun of any name. My name is common in the area of the world I am from, and they bullied me with my name.
Fuck off with this shit that the name is the problem, kids probably just decided to bully because they are terrible little shits whise parents either don’t care, or encourage them.
Agreed on all fronts. Don’t be a cruel parent and give your kid a fucked up name. If you can’t find it on the keychain turnstile in a truck stop, your “cute” name for a kid is causing more trouble than it’s worth.
I have a misspelled common name (and it’s a common misspelling) and every call for every account in my whole life is a PITA.
You aren’t clever or cute, don’t fuck up your kid’s name. Color your hair blue and you be unique, leave your poor child alone, dipshit.
The name Wendy didn’t exist until the book Peterpan. Every part of language is made up, even the names.
oh man that’s crazy. I always thought it was short for Gwendolyn.
What about Bread?
No, Bread has always been.
Only it being sliced is new
That’s just not so. J.M. Barrie’s book popularized Wendy as a girls name, but it predates the book by centuries.

Sorry it was so difficult for you.
I mean I don’t even have that odd of a name but even in adulthood it’s made fun of occasionally.
I can only imagine someone named after some fantasy story.
Some fantasy story that everybody hates now.
Hey, maybe realise by your experience that it isn’t the name but shitty people.
