Dom's old foster brother named his daughter Proton.
Proton.
You know what he's naming his incoming son?
Nic.
I don't think that's exactly fair.
Proton isn't even the worst name ever. But that's not very fair. (Then again we have Dean and are thinking Solei for our daughter but at least Solei is pretty)

Skylar, yes, I said it. I know it means "Scholar" in Dutch, but it sounds like some asshole combined Sky and Tyler. Far too masculine for a girl and way too feminine for a boy, just makes me shiver that it's number 88.

Celebrity baby names aside, the worst I've ever seen are Biterolf and Grettir. They give the same kind of creepy-guy vibe that takes them beyond normal ugly into downright horrendous territory. Thankfully, they're both rare.

I came across a terrible name the other day. She worked for an agency that I was volunteering with. I'm so glad I didn't actually meet her because there's no way I would have been poker faced during an introduction.

The name was Lesbia. What kind of parents would give their kid a name like that?

Blakesley, which is the name Trista and Ryan Sutter gave their daughter. It sounds so ugly and awkward I just want to weep for the girl.

Cunegonda or Cunegonde which I've never had the misfortune of encountering on a real person.

I went to high school with a girl named Breege.

There are a lot of great examples, but the one that comes to mind at the moment is Moon Unit. I just imagine a vagina with rays of light beaming from it. Names that use slang for genitalia are never good in my book.

To me, the ugliest names I've heard are mixes of already bad or uninteresting names. So Ethelyn and Braithen would top my list.

My mom hired and trained new employees, and once hired a woman named Lasagna. I think this may be the worst.

from celebrities:
Pilot Inspektor (maybe was spelled differently)
Apple
Blue Ivy
more that I can't remember, why are celebs so crazy?

Nevaeh / Neveah - heaven spelled backwards means the opposite of heaven to me... so hell? Then heaven misspelled backwards?

New ones (from my local BAs! I'm going to have to start reading them all the time!)
Ryker
Alexavier
Henley (for a girl. it's a style of shirt!)

I went to school with a kid named Detron (pronounced "dee-tron" . It sounded like a bad electronics company.

Huldah
Ichabod
Ughtred
(in baby name books)

Not keen on Hermione or Hilda in real life
