Thoughts & Prayers: Zoomers like to name their kids after "designer- brand influencers"

Didn't Toni Braxton named one of her kids Diezel?

And. Kyle Richards named her youngest Porsche.

I think it's trashy but up to them.

Hopefully that kid grows into his looks.

Her kid’s name is Portia which is a common name and was even used by Shakespeare. She didn’t name her kid after a car. 🙄

Portia de Rossi's real name is Amanda Lee Rogers.

She legally changed it in a court so now Portia IS her real name.

Any Goops?

The baby looks like JayZ. How unfortunate.

I came here to say exactly that, r10!

These are not intelligent people.

I know a girl who went by "Porsche." She told me once she hit 21 she was going to change the legal spelling to "Portia" but not tell her parents.

That’s it. Keep naming your offspring with offbeat spellings and creative names and the like. It makes the super easy for their future stalkers to Google. It’s a lot easier to find Tifini in Atlanta than Tiffany in Atlanta when creeping on Facebook.

Fucking morons.

R14, any parent who gives their kids these stupid names couldn't care less about their future.

Oh, a baby at 17. Hopefully she was able to schedule her breastfeeding around giving her valedictorian speech at graduation.

R5, I stand corrected...didn't know that. So, thanks!

I'm sure she had Shakespeare in mind when she named her kid!

I hate to say this about a baby but that kid is fug.

A ratchet diva 17 YO mother with 866k followers.

It really is end times.

Having a baby before getting your braces off.

Great idea.

Product placement ... for life.

Sorry, but that buggy-eyed, homely little baby should've been brand-named "Raid"!

So glad I'll be dead around the time we start getting "Supreme Court Justice Cinnymyn Carter" and "President Robbynne Smith."

What this young generation doesn't realize is that these 'cute babies' with the 'cute names' will grow up to be adults some day. WTF are they thinking ?

R25 they don't think unless their social media account clicks tells them to think. Thank god I'm a solid Gen Xer and on the back half of my life.

r2 thinks the London Underground is a political movement.

I can't even imagine the level of stupidity involved with under-26 year old Gen Z parents.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking of that scene, R27!

I see fetal alcohol syndrome in the kid...

If you're going to name your kid quirky phonetic spellings of designer brands, can it at least be the correct phoneticisms?

She should've gone for "Cardie A" in this case, for double the cultural reach.

This isn't new at all. Among the chavdom, naming children after luxury brands, celebrities and soap opera characters has always been fairly common. I have come across several women named Chanel/Channelle/Shannel, a Nikee and many a Kylie. Giving children bizarre names has always been customary for the underclass.

I mean, just read the article below; the Victorian working class wasn't averse to giving insane names to their offspring: Friendless, Leicerter Railway, One Too Many, Zebra, Yetty or Allien were probably the 19th Century's versions of Kartiyr, Dior and Armani.

Yeah I mean this has been going on for like twenty years. First strippers started doing it for their stage names, then poor trash started doing it to their children, and now it’s middle class.

R33 It is not now middle class, nor will it ever be middle class.

LOL, R2. It’s Portia. Never studied Shakespeare?

No mention of Tiffany and Barron Trump?

[quote] “They b naming kids after items they wish for,” quipped someone else."

This was a reactor, but I see it all the time. They can't even speak properly. They shouldn't be having children.

This thread made me think about this guy I used to fuck 20 years ago who had the Chanel interlocking C's tattooed on his forearm...he was a good bottom boy.

Like Lexus Berry?
