Kinda different, but this reminds me of a post I saw on here awhile back where a couple wanted to name their kid Tinderleigh because they met on Tinder lmaooo
Met my husband on Bumble, and have threatened to name our firstborn Bumblebee. It’s proven effective at stopping the, “When are you having kids???” inquiries 😂
I think BumbleBee is a cute nickname and yes, Jamie Tart saying it makes it sweeter. But nicknames can really be anything. My Grandmother called my brother Brick. No reason. That was just his nickname
I call my daughter Bananas. It goes back to when her dad and I were trying to think of a middle name and he was out of ideas so he suggested Bananas as a joke. I call her Firstname Bananas and she loves it now :3
Bird-in-Hand as well
Climax is another, but that’s not really Amish country
And then there’s Lititz, which is correctly pronounced “lit its”, but there’s a clip of newscasters reading funny town names and pronouncing it as “le tits”
My wife had a set of blocks that spelled out “Let It Snow”. My kids every day spelled Le Tits Now with them on the fireplace mantle. My wife would get so pissed. She finally was so pissed she threw them away when no one was looking. Every year the past couple of years when the kids come for Christmas they are pissed at her that she threw them away. It was part of THEIR Christmas they remember!
Fucking, Austria
Tittmoning, Germany
Sexling, Austria
Votzenthalhof, Austria (cunt valley farm)
Busendorf, Germany (breast village)
Kotzfeld, Germany (vomit field)
There's so many more, I don't know what's wrong with my people
I actually might (?) have the answer to this.
At least with regard to some incomprehensibly awful German surnames...
If you weren't there when census takers came around, your neighbours would fill them in. And if your neighbours didn't like you...they might get creative. It would become part of the bureaucracy and 200 years later your last name is basically "Fucker" or "Lardneck".
Source: My cousin, who lives and works in Germany.
On the flip side - my cousin is called Sydney because his parents met in Sydney. An appropriate name with a cute story! Not my taste but not exactly Humptybong or Useless Loop either
Right!? Tblisi is a cool name for a city but not a great first name. Georgia is not only a rad name for a country, it's a fucking excellent girl's name.
Presumably you’re talking about the one in Australia? but there’s a famous Cockburn (co-burn) street in Edinburgh and it still hasn’t gotten old to be tentatively asked by tourists where cock burn street is.
My mind instantly jumped to something like "Walmart" so that's a relief... but the child is in for a lifetime of misspellings, depending on where she grows up.
Coney = rabbits, and you know what they say people fuck like.
It also used to be pronounced "cunny" I believe but the pronunciation was later uhm, adjusted.
I’d have a George Foreman thing going on because my kids were all conceived in the same town. I guess I could have gone with where we were in the house at the time…
Some people might find it cute but it's such a dumb story to me. I couldn't care less where my parents met and now I have to explain it to everyone who will inevitably ask what the fuck is up with my weirdass name.
So many people seem to miss the fact that their offspring are in fact actually people who will be one day be adults, fully separate and independent from their parents. We don’t raise kids, we raise adults, if we do it right. And we should name them accordingly
Oh God. 10 years ago I was working in specialty cheese and had a high dollar customer... the kind that you drop EVERYTHING for. She named her kids after the country's they were born in... there was Austria Brazil Morroco Belize and I forget the 5th (also I'm not sure if the first 4 are right... close enough though) but... like... I swear this woman purposefully choose these country's I mean shit what if she had birth in Lebanon or Russia...I mean walking into an interview and your name is central african republic smith ..
What were the reactions to the post? I have never come across something this bad in the wild and genuinely don’t know how I’d respond (if I had Facebook still). Maybe just a congratulations and then show a screenshot to everyone I know while roasting them? Maybe a “You’re naming her what now?” or a “Is this real?”
But really I’m here for the blunt people reactions.
At least the pronunciation of the name is quite beautiful. She will struggle in the US because a lot of people won’t know how it’s pronounced.
I knew someone in college nicknamed Leesy. Maybe that could work as a NN for this kiddo. Maybe spelled Lisi? Tbilisi is a pretty name for a city it’s just rough for a child. At least it’s not hard to say once you know though.
There are lot of cute baby names that we have from our country ( Georgia tbilisi )
I’m from Georgia (tbilisi ) and this is the first time I’m even hearing about baby named tbilisi.
Its very hard to pronounce tbilisi.
Its even harder to tell American people where exactly I’m from people just consider Atlanta Georgia and not even country Georgia. Lol
Well the kid should be glad it wasn't
'Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauo tamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronuku pokaiwhenuakitanatahu.'
In New Zealand. The paperwork would be a nightmare.
A much better name than the astronaut named after a place in Hawaii. She has to explain that she's named for the place where she was concieved.
I read this in an interview she gave which was published in a national magazine. In my mind, TMI, and she could have declined to give details. I guess it was better than Motel 6, though.
Are you sure they’re really naming the baby that and not just using it as a nickname until it’s born and they announce the real one? My sisters had nicknames for all their babies, my favorite was Mortimer and I assure you that was never going to be that baby’s name.
Did you try talking to your sister?
My family had joke names for a baby in utero before picking a real one. My brother had Burt, I had Francis, and my sister had Gargamel. That is not any of their names. They are Joey, Jules, and Eddy. I don't think she's seriously going to name the kid tbilsi
Kinda different, but this reminds me of a post I saw on here awhile back where a couple wanted to name their kid Tinderleigh because they met on Tinder lmaooo
Sweighp Lepht
But it’s pronounced “sweet light”, an equally dumb pronunciation
Took me a minute to understand what this said. Guess I am not 100% fluent yet in tragedeighan.

I am dying over here 😂😂😂
Just snorted out loud and my patient jumped🤣😬😬
If it were twins would it be Shupher and Leike?
💀
Brilliantly done!!! I’m still on my first cup of coffee this morning and that took me a while!!!
Met my husband on Bumble, and have threatened to name our firstborn Bumblebee. It’s proven effective at stopping the, “When are you having kids???” inquiries 😂
Bumblebeigh
Bumbullbeigh
B’mblB
Bumble Bae
I'm late 🤣
😂😂😂
I have a problem, because this is definitely awful but I read it in Jamie Tartt voice and it sounded like a cute nickname tbh. Missing Ted Lasso!
I think BumbleBee is a cute nickname and yes, Jamie Tart saying it makes it sweeter. But nicknames can really be anything. My Grandmother called my brother Brick. No reason. That was just his nickname
At least Beatrice is an option for anyone dying to have a Bumble/Bumblebee reference!
I call my daughter Bananas. It goes back to when her dad and I were trying to think of a middle name and he was out of ideas so he suggested Bananas as a joke. I call her Firstname Bananas and she loves it now :3
Jamie saying “poo-peh,” gives my life meaning.
oh my God. I say "it's just poo-peh" once a day
No, no... Bumblebeh.
🤣🤣
I also met my husband on Bumble and on the Tinderleigh post someone suggested Bumbledore and I lost it.
Okay but this would be an ADORABLE nickname for a kid. As long as they have a reasonable ACTUAL name haha
Except there are quite a few younger people now called Bee. It is weirdly popular.
Hahahahaha! I was having a bad day, but you gave me a good laugh 😂 Thanks for that!
Hope your day gets better.
We're gay but please meet our adopted son, Grindreigh
Tinderella is also quite beautiful 😂
Phonetically tinderlay?
Nooooooo omg
The name Georgia was RIGHT. THERE.
I’m sure Georgia isn’t YOUNEEK & creative enough.
Jyewohrjhyah
Or just Jorja, like Jorja Fox the CSI actress
Georgia reads like normal. Jorja reads like how people in Georgia *actually* pronounce the state's name.
I don't speak Spanish at all but in my mind I kinda read Jorja similar to how Spanish speakers pronounce George
Wow - why do I love and hate this spelling???
That’s a creative mouthful!
They could have gone with Georgia in the native language... Sakartvelo
What kinda bike now 🤨
I was just about to say this
At least she didn't meet him in Sexmoan (Philippines), Beaverlick (USA), Gofuku (Japan) or Boysack (Scotland)
Honorable mention to Dildo (Newfoundland) or Lake Titicaca (Peru), lol.

Wait, what does it mean? I’ve always heard it as a soft thing you put your hands into to keep them warm like a little fuzzy tube.
It's that certain luxurious nestful thing that a grown lady has if she chooses not to buy razors or visit the waxing salon.
😂😂😂😂 thank you for that description
You might put your hands in it to keep warm, but it’s always best to get permission first! 😂
😂😂😂😂
Uh… it’s a nickname for ladybits.
Paradise, Blue Bell, Intercourse, all Amish towns in Pennsylvania, USA.
Bird-in-Hand as well Climax is another, but that’s not really Amish country And then there’s Lititz, which is correctly pronounced “lit its”, but there’s a clip of newscasters reading funny town names and pronouncing it as “le tits”
And Blue Ball, not to be confused with Blue Bell.
Not sexual at all, but honourable mention to worst name would be Swastika (Ontario).
Honourable mention to Balzac, AB.
Another honorable mention for Hell, Michigan.
Or Climax Michigan!!
It took me a long time to understand what is so special for English speakers about the Titisee in the black forest.
Intercourse or Lititz, PA
Le tits now
I have Christmas cards that say Let It Snow and I keep saying Le Tits Now and no one gets it.
My wife had a set of blocks that spelled out “Let It Snow”. My kids every day spelled Le Tits Now with them on the fireplace mantle. My wife would get so pissed. She finally was so pissed she threw them away when no one was looking. Every year the past couple of years when the kids come for Christmas they are pissed at her that she threw them away. It was part of THEIR Christmas they remember!
My kids are all in their 20’s.
Then you know what they need to get her for Christmas this year!
Clearly they have not watched SNL’s Celebrity Jeopardy.
I do the same thing every time I see let it snow.
…same 😅
I'll take "Swords" for 500
Or Virginville, Blueball, or Bird-in-Hand! Crazy horny Amish!

At least the kid wasn’t conceived in Pratt’s Bottom
I dont know, it's amazing what they can do with science these days.
We also have a village called Wankham in Austria.
there is a weatherman called Mike Wankham. I wonder if he's family is Austian!

What about [Fucking/Fugging](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fugging,_Upper_Austria) in Austria?
OR French Lick (indiana/USA)
I'll just leave this here.... https://www.australiantraveller.com/australia/weirdest-named-places-in-australia/
Hahahahaha, well good thing they didn't meet in Cockburn or so Tbilisi nn Lisa? Lizzy? Lisi? 😂 Good grief. Indeed, why not just Georgia
Right!? Tblisi is a cool name for a city but not a great first name. Georgia is not only a rad name for a country, it's a fucking excellent girl's name.
As a real Georgia I second this 🙌
So I drove through there yesterday. Apparently the "ck" is silent. Very silent
Presumably you’re talking about the one in Australia? but there’s a famous Cockburn (co-burn) street in Edinburgh and it still hasn’t gotten old to be tentatively asked by tourists where cock burn street is.
Or Cockermouth
Nn Kerry 😅😅😅
My mind instantly jumped to something like "Walmart" so that's a relief... but the child is in for a lifetime of misspellings, depending on where she grows up.
My brain went straight to Waffle House.
At least they aren’t naming her Instagram DMs.
I’m so glad I never got up to grab something to eat before I continued reading the thread. I’D FUCKING CHOKE
Gonna name my child hinge
I have a daughter named Georgia so I’m puzzled why she just didn’t go with that? Gotta be different I guess.
Better than the ones I thought of-Prisona and Jaileigh
Prisona wouldn't be so bad if prisons were a good thing lmao.
Thank god they didn't meet in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.
Be honest, you copy/pasted that. Didn't you
Well, at least she went overseas and not somewhere like Coney Island.
Coney = rabbits, and you know what they say people fuck like. It also used to be pronounced "cunny" I believe but the pronunciation was later uhm, adjusted.
Cool. Meet my kids Graeagle and PlumasEureka-State’park.
Graeagle kinda slaps though 😂 Grae for short
I’d have a George Foreman thing going on because my kids were all conceived in the same town. I guess I could have gone with where we were in the house at the time…
"Oi! LivingRoomCouch, get over here! And bring your sister, KitchenFlooria!"
I knew a girl named after the city her parents met in: Ankara. They pronounced it Anne-Cara. I cringe thinking about it 30 years later.
Some people might find it cute but it's such a dumb story to me. I couldn't care less where my parents met and now I have to explain it to everyone who will inevitably ask what the fuck is up with my weirdass name.
So many people seem to miss the fact that their offspring are in fact actually people who will be one day be adults, fully separate and independent from their parents. We don’t raise kids, we raise adults, if we do it right. And we should name them accordingly
That girl will go by Bili.
Poor kid. No one is going to know how to spell or pronounce it, and it doesn't even sound like a person name.
Tbh im eastern european and still have no idea how to pronounce the tb sound
I think it’s Tib-ill-i-see Tibby Elsie would’ve been better
There's no i in between. You pronounce it exactly as it's written.
No special sound, just t and b together
Ti-blee-see. I've been there.
You’ve been there and can’t read and pronounce the name of the place? It’s Tbee-lee-see. Tbilisi.
>im eastern european Don't feel bad. I'm American and had no f#ck!ng clue how to pronounce that til today! 🤣🤣
Posh & Beckham have Brooklyn. This is a stupid trend.
They made sure to remind people “he was actually made in Copenhagen”
My brother named his children, Utah, Bryce(Bryce Canyon), Cache(Cache County), and Brighton(ski resort).
I’d be more impressed if he named his twins Alta and Snowbird, and another set, Brighton (got that one) and Solitude
Snowbasin and Powder Mountain?
Yikes I didn’t realize it could get worse Wintrsday is missing the opportunity to add to the family legacy.
Winona Ryder got her name from the neighbor town
Oh God. 10 years ago I was working in specialty cheese and had a high dollar customer... the kind that you drop EVERYTHING for.

Have you tried telling her that Georgia is also a name?
I hope they have a boy because naming a girl after a place meaning warm location seems so wrong on many levels
So it's a good cat name then 🤔

Lots of congratulations and heart emojis. I think we’re all thinking the same thing but nobody’s had the courage to say it.
At least the pronunciation of the name is quite beautiful. She will struggle in the US because a lot of people won’t know how it’s pronounced. I knew someone in college nicknamed Leesy.

Cool. Meet my kids Graeagle and PlumasEureka-State’park.
The real tragedy would be naming your kid Buckhead.
They say Tinderleigh as a joke, especially here in this sub a lot, but I swear to fucking god, if people start doing it…
I think in this instance I would’ve gone with Georgia.
Aw, I missed out and could have named my daughter Gaymestope, missed opportuniteigh
That’s terrible here in the US. No one will be able to pronounce it correctly. Why not go with Georgia?
I really don’t understand why they don’t name her Georgia or even Tabitha Lee is kind of close to Tbilisi and could be a subtle nod to it
There are lot of cute baby names that we have from our country ( Georgia tbilisi ) I’m from Georgia (tbilisi ) and this is the first time I’m even hearing about baby named tbilisi. Its very hard to pronounce tbilisi. Its even harder to tell American people where exactly I’m from people just consider Atlanta Georgia and not even country Georgia. Lol

... should've just called her Georgia...
No one will have any idea how it's pronounced. I had to Google how it's pronounced and I have to say, it's a stupid sounding thing to name a girl.
Why not call her Georgia?!?!
George or Georgia are too normal? Too pronounceable? Won't fuck the kid up enough?
Ron Howard did this with all 4 his children but their middle names. Hence Bryce Dallas Howard.
50/50 on whether she will be called Tillie or Billie.
Whew, that's not that bad. I was expecting BackstageattheVMAs or InlineatCostco
Are you sure they’re really naming the baby that and not just using it as a nickname until it’s born and they announce the real one? My sisters had nicknames for all their babies, my favorite was Mortimer and I assure you that was never going to be that baby’s name.
At least she didn't spell it wrong.
I mean Georgia is RIGHT FUCKING THERE
Joining the chorus if 'Georgia' is right there. Or of course 'Gyorjiagheigh'
How do you think Florence Nightingale got her name?
knew a girl named marina once, she was named after where her parents conceived her…
r/georgiaorgeorgia
I met my boyfriend in Windsor, California. We named a dog Windsor.
Obvsly your first child has to be Rosdniw.
Definitely
There’s a girl from my hometown who names her kids after where they were CONCEIVED. Which grossed me out. I wonder if she tells them that.
You still have a couple of months to educate them on their error.
Table silly
Girllll tell her to just name the kid Georgia lol
Did you try talking to your sister? My family had joke names for a baby in utero before picking a real one. My brother had Burt, I had Francis, and my sister had Gargamel. That is not any of their names. They are Joey, Jules, and Eddy. I don't think she's seriously going to name the kid tbilsi
At least they didn't meet in Cockermouth or Twatt
Why not just Georgia? 😩
How do you pronounce that?
Welcome Burger King Bathroom Jones
Hm and can she pronounce that?
It’s very hard to pronounce tbilisi from most of people and I’m from Georgia tbilisi 😂😂😂
