White Trash Baby Names: 2022 Edition

Whatever the Trumps are naming their kids these days

What you got against Emma?

Emma, Ima, Eura

Emma is not a white trash name.

Nevaeh.....although that might be a ghetto name.

Oliver Theodore Sebastian Decclan Leo

Charlotte,. Scarlett, Quinn, all forms of "Olivia" that keep popping up, and I hate adding "Amelia," since it was my grandma's name, but there ya go.

[quote] What you got against Emma?

Try having six of them in your third grade class.

^ Tell me about it, in grade school we had 7 "Debbies" in my class

Bristol, Trig,, Willow, Track, and Piper

R8 I have a teacher friend who once joked about all the Kaden's in her class, and she added how bizarre it was that their parents tried to make their Little Kaden "unique" by altering the spelling of his name. I think you can find over 15 spellings using K" and "C" and now ones starting with "Q" are also around.

Kayleigh, Ashleigh, and Trashleigh

Madsyn

Candy

What's your name, OP? I bet you have a name appropriate for your thread.

Emma is not a white trash name. It’s the most popular girl’s name in the country. The richest family I know has a daughter named Emma.

Kyleleigh (pronounced Kyle Lee)

Brandy

Ashley

Tiffany

Carlette Nickole

I know a Ky-Lee

[quote] It’s the most popular girl’s name in the country.

That alone makes it white trash.

Olivia, Charlotte, and Emma are white trash names?? Since when?

I vote for any weirdly spelled variant of Madison, Mackenzie, Ashley, Jaden, Caden, and any first name that is primarily known as a surname: Connor, for example.

Emma and Madison are higher-up the income bracket.

Hillbillies do like -aden names for boys and girls. But like even more anything ending in 'ley/leigh': Harley, Braelee, Raeleigh, Wrylie, etc.

Candy and Brandy are stripper names. My grandma thought Tiffany was a trashy name back in the 70s, and preferred classic names like Katherine. Now, Tiffany seems like a quaint old fashioned name. There are grandmas named Tiffany now.

When they started to be popular 20 years ago Olivia, Charlotte, and Emma were upper middle names (think lawyers’ daughters). As with anything the names move downmarket when the aspirational lower classes get wind of them, and they eventually reach to trailer parks.

Growing up every kid's name was Bob, John, Jim, Debbie, Kathy, Mary

That's it

"There are grandmas named Tiffany now."

Technically, I could've been a grandma now- if I hadn't aborted daddy's baby 16 years ago.

Dick and Jane

R6 Sebastian Theodore Kemble Croft would like a word.

We were just talking on some other thread about how Maverick was now a popular name for boys.

The equivalents used by chavs in the UK are surprisingly similar, although I am a bit baffled to hear that some of the names that are considered 'white trash' in the US are quite conventional (Mary, Sebastian, Emma, Oliver... Really?).

Common chav boy names: Wayne/Dwayne, Kieron/Keyran, Troy, Kyle, Shane, Mason, Declan, Josh, Connor, Dylan/Dillon, Ashley, Liam, Tyler, Rhys/Reece, Curtis, Damon.

Common chav girl names: Chantelle, Chanelle, Mya, Poppy, Jodie, Jordan, Courtney/Cortnie, Britney, Kayleigh, Ashleigh, Kimberley/Kimberleigh, Leanne, Danielle, Chelsea/Chelseigh, Kylie, Skye.

As you can see, there are quite a few commonalities regarding name choices among the underclass, across the Anglosphere.

I don't have a problem with Aidan/Aiden, OP. It's an ancient name. It has paid its dues. However, modern variations like Jaden, Kayden, Brayden, Hayden, Grayden, and Bladen belong in a grease fire.

Dwayne sounds trashy. Dale sounds trashy for both men and women.

Trashy names, Kardashian style: Kourtney, Khloe, North, Saint, Chicago, Psalm

Pipe 'er; Chastitty; Enema; Jailin'; Demon; Harlot; Ashtray; Olabia...

[quote]White Trash Baby Names: 2022 Edition

THE OL' VALUES:

Chassity

Faith Hill Romine

Hope Hicks Hicks

Cheritee

My closeted Xennial cousin and his cubefrau wife just had a little girl that they named after my harridan of a grandmother, clearly to pander for inheritance.

That to me is trashy.

[quote] Emma and Madison are higher-up the income bracket.

Emma is, Madison is not, especially all the odd "Madysyn" variations

[quote] I am a bit baffled to hear that some of the names that are considered 'white trash' in the US are quite conventional (Mary, Sebastian, Emma, Oliver... Really?).

They are not considered "white trash"

White Trash DLers who have not known a small child since they were small children themselves 60+ years ago start these name threads.

They are the most bizarre variation of the Eldergay obsession with social class, or the fantasy of an alcohol-fueled WASP upper middle class as seen in black and white movies from the previous century.

R24, ...and Lisa, Vicki, Sue or Susan, some version of Margaret. Dave, Bill, Steve, Tom, Rick. Between your list and mine, that's 90% of my 1978 high school class.

Baby just given up to foster care was named Arson by his trash mom

Sebastian is a trash name?

God bless my soul; [italic]don't[/italic] tell Lady Marchmain

Back in the early '90s...Miata!

I have an American friend who named her daughter Amaryah. I don't believe she fits the definition of W.T., yet I'm bothered by her defensive angst each time someone spells her daughter's name incorrectly.

It is a Hebrew name, and they're not Jewish, but I happen to be, and it is not a common enough name even amongst Jews to expect others to spell it correctly. People try to be too creative, and then the name in question becomes something of a battle.

R24, Does Ky-Lee shop at Hy-Vee?

Whatever Britney "Itchy Cooter" Spears names her next kid.

My Mom’s birth name was originally Donna, and she’s not even Italian. She legally changed it out of shame and disgust, after she moved out from her parents and got married back in the 1980s, and I don’t blame her.

Any name that just means ‘woman’ or ‘girl’ just doesn’t sit right with me.

Emma is not White trash. OP is a moron.

Effie

Olive

Hunter

Atticus

Katniss

Estella

Tremé

Carlin/Karlin

Memphis

Maverick

Lurleen (although it holds a special place in my heart)

Jesse / Jessie

Brayson

Jaycee

Nevaeh

Any kid named after a popular fictional tv show/movie. Apparently Khaleesi has become a very popular name.

What's wrong with the name Donna?

My neighbor named her newborn daughter Alexa. It’s going to cause that child some problems.

Somebody in our area puts up the names of Armed Forces members on telephone polls. I saw one the other day for a kid named Cwentin. I would bet everything I own they aren't trying to be clever or different with that spelling, they've just never seen Quentin in print.

[quote]My neighbor named her newborn daughter Alexa. It’s going to cause that child some problems.

You're right about that, R53.

R55 Idiots don't have a leg to stand on. Coincidences aren't legally actionable.

Kayla

Shaylene

An 'Ok Boomer' thread if I've ever seen one.

Micayla Makayla Or however they are spelling this white trash name these days.

[quote] It is a Hebrew name, and they're not Jewish, but I happen to be, and it is not a common enough name even amongst Jews to expect others to spell it correctly.

OTOH, there really is no correct way to spell a Hebrew name as the OG spelling is aleph-mem-resh-yod-hey

Maverick

River

Skyler

Any name used by the Kartrashian or Jenner clan. Wait, that's just trash that's not color specific.

What about Shitta??

Emma is special! She has her own ways!

Clara is a nice name I think I’ll name you CLARA

R56: I wasn't exactly opining on the legality of the matter...just trying to show that kids named "Alexa" face challenges. But you do you.

I wonder if Siri will become a popular name?

R63 there was a 'Britta' in my middle-school year who got it tight from the bullying plastic girls over the rhyming potential.

Misty Copeland, a great ballet dancer , has a first name more appropriate for a great pole dancer.

Cynnymynn.

Stormy

r46 Bitch, I'm Madonna

R61 I suppose if it's a given name, they think theirs is the correct spelling. These people need attention is my guess.

My sister's friend fostered a baby named Axl Rose. I held the poor child and just apologized.

Jaxon

Methhany Pandemica Jackson.
