Weirdest Baby Names In US

A list of US names compiled by Nameberry has unearthed a selection of unlikely monikers including Tequila, Cougar and Moo.

Also included in their round-up of the most bizarre names are Swayze, after late actor Patrick, which five boys were named last year, while 14 girls and 25 boys were given the name Wrigley, after the Chicago stadium.

The name Tomorrow also appeared on the register, alongside Evening and Future, while Cougar was one of the more unusual among the trend for what Nameberry calls “fierce” names.

“To the six girls named Bunny out there: Watch out,” joked site founder Pamela Redmond Satran.

The strangest, though, has to be the dismissive Eh, which 14 girls were named last year.

Another six of last year’s babies must have been born troublemakers as their parents elected to name them Corleone after the fictional Mob family in The Godfather.

Mad Men character Don inspired parents to call their sons Draper, while Elvis Presley’s home Graceland was the name given to seven baby girls.

Notorious was the name given to five boys – no doubt their parents were fans of Biggie, while the very tough-sounding Tank was among this year’s newest names.

Conjoined names – those without a space, hyphen or even spelling the second of the two names with a capital letter – also emerged as an unlikely new trend.

Five boys were named Kingsolomon, while others on the register were Princewilliam, Princemichael, Sircharles, and Marcjacob.
