Worst Baby Name Ever


There you go, right in between Fuchsia and Frythe, in the 'girls' section of the baby name book, is Fructuose.  Are you serious?

  1. Trying so hard to remember that girls' name I heard in the park which was a reversal of a common word, and I didn't believe it existed until I heard a parent shout it... drat. Not coming to me.

    Wait. 'Nevaeh'. I think 'Fructuose' probably wins, though.

  2. Maybe if you roll the r, give it a long u and pronounce the e on the end it's not so bad, in some cultures.
    Like, Frrrrooktwohsie. And, Frrrookie for short?
    I always thought the worst girl's name ever was Gertrude, but it does sound a bit nicer when the Germans say it.
