What is the worst name someone can possibly give their baby
Some pretty bad names come from people who want their child's name to be 'unique' only to make it a horrible spelling of a simple name

Years ago, someone from Japan told me the following.
Some people in Japan would have a horoscope done for their newborn baby (this would be a very different system from the one people use in the West.) If the horoscope predicted a life with bad luck, the parents would give the child a terrible name in the hope that this would "use up" the bad luck and the rest of the kid's life would be happy. So there were adults in Japan walking around with names like Ugly Face.
I imagine this is not so true nowadays, but who knows.
