The Internet's Top Picks for Ruining Baby Names (with Plausible Deniability)

In a thread that went viral, users were asked, "What would you name a newborn child if you really, really wanted to ruin their life, but wanted to maintain plausible deniability about having done it on purpose?"

People shared names that ranged from whimsical and fantastical to downright hilarious. On this side of the internet, traditional naming conventions are thrown out the window. Instead, it's a playground for the absurd, where "Ctrl-Alt-Delete" and "Squidward" are contenders for the title of oddest baby name.

While these suggestions may seem laughable, it's all in good fun. After all, the internet is a place where creativity is limitless, even when it comes to naming a newborn.
