I believe the worst name is Nakusa or Nakushi, the Hindi word for "unwanted", which has been given to girls in India whose parents were disappointed that they were not a boy.

I think this is a very bad thing to do to a child. There are other cultures in the world which interpret childhood death as being caused by malevolent spirits which use what are called "derogatory protective" names where parents who have had several children die as infants will give the next child a word which means something like "Dirt" or "Filth" in their language to fool the spirits into thinking the child is worthless so they will not take it. Though those names seem to be horrible, they are actually a sign the parent loves the child very much and wants it to survive. This is not the case with Nakusa, which is indeed a message to the girl that she is worthless, or at least worth much less than a boy.

Yesterday I heard someone had called their kid A-A (a-dash-a). So much laziness in one name.

I feel like that’s an urban legend, just like La-a.

That person is unique, indeed... at least it looks like a real name as if it were borrowed from another language, but it's still odd.
