Name Shame

The unfortunate title associated with having inconsiderate parents who doom their offspring to a lifetime of shame and embarrassment due to the ridiculous names given to them at birth.

Such unfortunate people exist such as: North West, Moon Unit Zappa, Dweezil Zappa to name a few.

Another example of a near miss Name Shame event.
At the hospital shortly after their new son is born Bula Bawls says her her husband "Dick, we can't do that to our new son naming him after your grandfather."
Dick thinks about this for a minute and says, "Bula, you're probably right. I can picture the teacher calling attendance on the first day of school if by that unfortunate chance there's two Harry's in the class. When both boys raise their hands after being called and the teacher sees this I can picture her saying, "ah, how nice, we have pair of Harry Bawls in the class this year."" Later that day, Richard N. Bawls and Bula Bawls leave the hospital still thinking about a nice non Name Shame name for their new son.
