They named their kid Chrysanthemum.

They're going to call her Anthem.

I guess I just don't get it.

The world is full of stupid assholes that think they're being clever or unique. Sadly, in situations like this they aren't even the ones that suffer from their own douchebag actions.

A former co-worker named her daughter Catelynn Daenarys after her two favorite game of thrones characters. They just call her Cat for short. I can understand one or the other, Catelynn at least passes for an actual name, and Daenarys is shortened to Danny which I guess passes as a cute tomboyish nickname for a girl, but together the names just kind of sound bad imo.

Also, since I've been working here at a hotel, I've seen quite a few questionable names. The most memorable would have to be a woman named Chillicious. >_>
Just... why?

Maybe they think that their child is unique and want them to be seen as such, hence the very unorthodox name.

I used to think that, but then I realized that, if everyone is giving their kids asshole names, then no one is giving their kids asshole names.

When you're in a class with every kid having a ridiculous name, it's the Mary's and Kevin's and Bob's and Jen's who are going to be the freaks. Moonbeam Sunflower and Starlord Groot are going to be the ones picking on Steve or Andy.

That poor child, named after two of the worst characters in the story.

I suppose it could be worse, though. They could have thrown Sansa in there.
