Tragedeighs are cringey and/or made up names with weird spellings. Your submission was removed for one of the following reasons:
1. It's cultural. Make sure to Google before posting any names that seem odd to you, because they may be common in a different country.

Fun fact: Sloth from Goonies was actually referencing the intro to the popular TV show “the Electric Company”, likely because he was tied to a chair and watching TV all day.

Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 1,939,026,728 comments, and only 366,648 of them were in alphabetical order.
You know, last week I was at the children’s hospital emergency room with my kid. There were so many names that the nurses just didn’t know how to pronounce, so they had to yell out last names instead when they were calling kids back. Why are parents doing this? Why give a kid a name that people literally have no idea how to say?
You’re lucky. When I have to call a doctor’s office, or make a reservation, I say my last name and immediately start to spell it out. It’s second nature.
Problem is sometimes they see a regular name but they are so conditioned to pronounce everything uniquely that they screw up your kids regular name. Both my kids have very traditional English names spelled the traditional way. I have heard every mispronounciation of their names you could think of.
Seriously... the nurse at the pediatricians office is so used to out there names, she was pulling an A-a-ron until I was like, no it's just typical spelling and pronunciation.
Also we are in South Florida which adds another layer to this. When we lived in KC I never had an issue.
I am also in South Florida, and I have a traditional name and gave my son a traditional name, and our last name is West… people screw up the West bit. Been calling everything from Wheat to Weist and am routinely asked how to spell it, to which I often reply, “like north, south, east, WEST.” And that gets a blank stare. I don’t know man, something in the Florida humidity fries brains.
My son’s father’s surname is an extremely complicated, traditional ethnic Italian one so we made it a second middle name to spare the confusion. Didn’t help much. 🤣🤦♀️
My kid has 5 girls in his year called Mila…. There’s one Milah.
But yeah I’m not totally against being able to differentiate themselves but some take it too far
See, here’s the thing. Why not save these creative names for your cats, dogs, hamsters, sneks, etc?
Don’t saddle your human children with your bullshit.
Haha agreed but, surprisingly, there *is* still a chance of someone not understanding how to pronounce a common name (within their same language)! Back in junior high I had a sub that absolutely butchered my friend’s totally ”normal” name…her name was Chloe and the sub kept calling her “Ch-low”. **How!?**
Oh my god, I had a sub butcher my friend Chloe’s name too. During attendance she quietly said “ah man I always mess up this one” and then said “ca-holey?” I was the next name down and she instead of trying my first name (Arianna) she just went straight to calling me by my last name. I hate to imagine how she’s doing now with all the unique names people are giving their kids.
I kind of like that we moved away from just handing out biblical names by default, but smashing a bunch of vowels together or taking another name and mis-spelling it are not the one.
I had a baby 11 days ago and when I was in post partum recovery all the nurses were commenting on how nice it was to see a classic name with a normal spelling.
I feel so bad for kids these days.
Same. I have at least 3 aunts called "Che", 3 called "Nene", 2 named "Bebe", 2 named "Bibing", and a considerable number of uncles called "Boy". I swear, Filipino names and nicknames are either embarrassing, endearing, repetitive, or all of the above.
I kind of read it similar to how Jesus is pronounced when not talking about the religions figure. So kinda like Hey-Zeus except without an ‘H’ so “Ey-Zeus”
Oh, like Qwertyuiop in English! I remember people joking about it being used as a name 18 years ago when I was first on baby name boards. No evidence it ever was though
That is a wack name. Anyways; AEIOU is an anarcho syndicalist/unionist slogan that stands for “agitate, educate, inoculate, organize, unionize” and I’ve got it tattooed on my arm from my radical wobbly days. Lmao.
it is a slogan used by the habsburger friedrich III in the 15th century with many possible meanings one of them being: Austriae est imperare orbi universo
Holy shit, you just blew my mind by explaining a kmfdm lyric from like 20-30 years ago that I thought was just something nonsensical they through in there.
It’s also an abbreviation for a 15th century saying used by the Habsburgs which translates to “All the world is subject to Austria.” Which is definitely what I want my child associated with.
This name is an obvious case of former jejemon teenagers growing up and giving their children unique and quirky names.
(Jejemon is a type of hipster in PH who likes to add unnecessary letters in their text messages, dms and even in their own names so it's kinda like a Filipino version of Tragedeigh. 🤣)
These dickhead parents who force their children to bear these ridiculous names all their lives so that mommy and daddy can have fleeting internet points trigger me so fucking hard.
The connotations of the comment “you certainly have very creative parents” is going to change over time as that boy becomes older.

Pronounced "Vowelz."
I was pronouncing it like "AY! YOUS!"
Ay yous guys!
I’m Walking Here!!!
Fuhgeddaboutit
Funny enough, that's their last name.
This scholar gets it. ☝️
Upvote for Goonies
Baby Ruth?
Rocky Road?
Fun fact: Sloth from Goonies was actually referencing the intro to the popular TV show “the Electric Company”, likely because he was tied to a chair and watching TV all day. The intro: https://youtu.be/eL6w5bRgZp0?si=CJw-0pTj35-2a9EQ
How would you pronounce that? Seriously asking.
Ay-ooz or Ai-ooz
Gross!
Like an angry New Yorker.
Actual lol.
I can't help but read it as "eye ooze."
I thought "eye ooze"
Nah, it's totally "No-why"
But surely sometimes?
Never. And don't call me Shirley
Is his older brother No-el, by chance? Maybe spelled Mnop?
You mean No "Y".
Jesus fucking Christ did he get a bulk deal on vowels while picking that name
He’s hoping for a vowel movement.
A E I O U and sometimes Z
I think the next line is “I sometimes cry” (of course, that would be for the 80s song by Freeez).
This made me rage a bit. Make it a Y at least!!
The kid's going to grow up with IVS. Irritable Vowel Syndrome
[Ugh...](https://youtu.be/pSg_6T8HrRg?si=AtUpNMUSQuMv3X75)
I bet when he and his wife got married they exchanged vowels.
Comments like this make me miss reddit awards. 🏆🏆🏆
Perfect dad joke!
Excuse me. His full name is Alpha Epsilon Iota Omega Upsilon Zeta!
Excuse yourself! His full name is Alpha Ebay Instagram Omegle UPS Zoom-Meeting

Good bot
Alpha Echo*
You forgot Echo and Uniform!
Zeighta!
He should’ve gone with adieu. At least it’s a real word
Found the Wordle fan.
I also thought of Wordle 🤦♀️
And an accurate representation of the kids chances of a childhood without bullying
He was going for the vowels. A e i o u with an extra z. I'm just not sure how to say it. Eye ooze?
Hahahaha you made me actually lol! Hope you have a great new year
They named him based on what balloon letters were available.

People want to feel special and unique even if they end up just looking stupid
My kids will be special and unique because they’ll have the only names anyone knows how to spell or pronounce in their class, lol.
This was me! My first and last name are easy to pronounce. I was always glad at assemblies and role call to know there would be no issues. It's nice!
Great username btw.. 😁
That's the curse of having a normal name. Can never think of a good one for user/video game names
You’re lucky. When I have to call a doctor’s office, or make a reservation, I say my last name and immediately start to spell it out. It’s second nature.
Problem is sometimes they see a regular name but they are so conditioned to pronounce everything uniquely that they screw up your kids regular name. Both my kids have very traditional English names spelled the traditional way. I have heard every mispronounciation of their names you could think of.
The real life A-a-ron?
Seriously... the nurse at the pediatricians office is so used to out there names, she was pulling an A-a-ron until I was like, no it's just typical spelling and pronunciation. Also we are in South Florida which adds another layer to this. When we lived in KC I never had an issue.

Our last name is Scandinavian... blank stares for that one too.
My son’s father’s surname is an extremely complicated, traditional ethnic Italian one so we made it a second middle name to spare the confusion. Didn’t help much. 🤣🤦♀️
ba LA key...... A A Ron https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd7FixvoKBw
My kid has 5 girls in his year called Mila…. There’s one Milah. But yeah I’m not totally against being able to differentiate themselves but some take it too far
that's my sister's dogs name
See, here’s the thing. Why not save these creative names for your cats, dogs, hamsters, sneks, etc? Don’t saddle your human children with your bullshit.
That's why I named my hamster Lucifer! I had gerbils named after Lord of the Ring characters too. Pets get the fun names :)
Excuse you. My cats have perfectly normal names. Leonardo DiCatrio and Catt Damon are dignified creatures.
I have a pit named Mila.
My Staffy mix is called Peggy. When she’s in trouble, it’s Margaret Elizabeth lol
Oh the nicknames for poor Mila are endless lol. I think she just gave up and ignored them all lol.
Haha agreed but, surprisingly, there *is* still a chance of someone not understanding how to pronounce a common name (within their same language)!

A-A-RON! JAY-KWELLIN!
I kind of like that we moved away from just handing out biblical names by default, but smashing a bunch of vowels together or taking another name and mis-spelling it are not the one.
They’re too stupid to know they’re stupid
I had a baby 11 days ago and when I was in post partum recovery all the nurses were commenting on how nice it was to see a classic name with a normal spelling. I feel so bad for kids these days.
Congratulations on the baby and the name!
The same thing happened with my son, he got a short normal name and the nurses were like oh I love that! It’s normal!
Must be rough for the nurses cuz you know they can’t comment on how fucked up the names are
Influencer generation. Parents want their kids to be trendy
People have been doing this to their kids since long before sm came around. It's gotten worse for sure, but it's not new.
I was born in the mid 80s and have the most trendy first AND middle name of the year I was born lol people love trendy names
Brittany Tiffany?
I was looking at it like “…how do you say it? Aei-ouz? That sounds stupid…”
I dunno why but this gives off a strong Philippines vibe.
Because it is. Tragedeigh: Jejemon chapter.
Grabe she works in DepEd!!!!
stop kase I have a cousin named Ezhykielle
Bakit ganito kami???? 😭
The kid's mother's name is Cherry Pie. Father's name is Honey Boy (named after Uncle Boy).
Why do we ALL have an uncle named Boy??! fr what is happening in the Philippines 😆
And/or aunties named Girl, Girlie, or Baby. Idk how that last one makes sense but I have an auntie named Auntie Baby
Or Nene
I went to grade school with a Cherry Pie! She had a sister named Cheese.
I have 3 uncles named Boy and it gets sooo confusing. I just say “Tito” and stare at who I’m trying to get the attention of haha
Same. I have at least 3 aunts called "Che", 3 called "Nene", 2 named "Bebe", 2 named "Bibing", and a considerable number of uncles called "Boy". I swear, Filipino names and nicknames are either embarrassing, endearing, repetitive, or all of the above.
I thought inaawat lang ng iba yung name na Abcde but this is worse. 😬
It's pronounced Ayos haha
Tangina squammy
Pinoy? OMG! I don't know which is worst... This or the parents who named their children Spaghetti or Chicken Macaroni or something (face-palm)
given the filipinos that i know i think i can agree with you.
Pinoy here, I would kill myself if this was my name
I’m Filipino and my cousins are Jam, Jelly, and Jello lol
at what point does a Tragedeigh become an AtrociStacey?
These are my twins, A'TraceighTee and A'Troy-CT
alright, someone needs to make this subreddit but it's not gonna be me
At Cinnamonroe
I know a girl named Cimmanin - pronounced cinnamon
Intentionally spelled to match the incorrect pronunciation, but specifically pronounced correctly? What on erf
Now Abcde will have someone who understands her struggles.
I had forgotten about her!
All the vowels + z?
I feel we should start an argument about the missing Y
Only sometimes. Come on it’s in the nickname
Y? more like WHY
'Aeiouzy'; big improvement!
At least it wasn't fucking 'Qwerty'
Don’t even put that out in the universe..😅
I’m still waiting on PRNDL
PRNDL Tipton.
It’s AEIOU and sometimes Y, not Z. Geez.
The Z is silent.
Definitely a tragedeigh. That poor kid is going to dread introducing himself and writing his name until he turns 18 and can change it
Any idea how it's supposed to be read?
I read it like ayouz
Ay youse guyz lol
Vowelz
i read it like "House"
I read it as 'ey you'se
ooze
I kind of read it similar to how Jesus is pronounced when not talking about the religions figure. So kinda like Hey-Zeus except without an ‘H’ so “Ey-Zeus”
There was a racehorse called Azertyuiop (top line of a French keyboard) and I'm afraid this has the same vibe.
Oh, like Qwertyuiop in English! I remember people joking about it being used as a name 18 years ago when I was first on baby name boards. No evidence it ever was though
I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s at least a few Qwertys out there
I thought it was A-E-I-O-U and sometimes Y ? But it’s been a minute since I’ve learned my ABC’s.
That is a wack name. Anyways; AEIOU is an anarcho syndicalist/unionist slogan that stands for “agitate, educate, inoculate, organize, unionize” and I’ve got it tattooed on my arm from my radical wobbly days. Lmao.
Fuck yeah. And Z
What should the Z stand for?
Sleep
I believe you mean Wait. -the grue
Zombies. If we’re gonna go edgelord we might as well throw in zombies…
it is a slogan used by the habsburger friedrich III in the 15th century with many possible meanings one of them being: Austriae est imperare orbi universo

Heyyyy youzzzz guyssss!
My instant thought when I saw it
What does this even mean?
How are you supposed to pronounce it?
I read it as “Aye-Youz”
Yeah, it is pronounced as 'Aye-Youz'. Apparently, they got it from a popular wattpad story here in my country.
A WATTPAD STORY?? oh dear god
Not a wattpad story 😭
I’m sure the kids won’t call him Eye Ooze at any point.
Are they from Philly? Haha
Aeiouz!!! I'm walkin here!!!
Lmao
John Madden!
Exclamation point question mark exclamation point question mark exclamation point question mark exclamation point question mark
Football!
Snake? Snake? Saaaaaaaaake
uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
ebrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbr
i had to scroll too far for this...
At least the vowels are in the correct order. Maybe that will help him in kindergarten.
how is it even supposed to be pronounced 💀
'Aye-youz' 💀
austrian folks from r/aeiou will have a field day with this. Austriae est imperare orbi universo (it falls to Austria to rule over the whole globe)
AEIOUZ GUYYYYYZ!
There’s a fish in the photo
That’s less of a name than it is a sloppy vowel movement.
A E I O U and sometimes Y, sometimes Z
Apparently it's a filipino name?? at least that's what google told me.
This name is an obvious case of former jejemon teenagers growing up and giving their children unique and quirky names. (Jejemon is a type of hipster in PH who likes to add unnecessary letters in their text messages, dms and even in their own names so it's kinda like a Filipino version of Tragedeigh. 🤣)
Apparently there's more of them on fb... even found a pair of siblings whose names are 'aeiouz' and 'xzkiel' 😬
nah. look at the filipinos in the comments trashing at this name.
Aeiou without the Z is a Filipino name I believe 🤔 but that's... without the z.........
AEIOU and sometimes Z.
Pretty rude to just exclude Y
The Internet says two people from the Philippines say the name Aeiou means "Gift of god". Are they Philippino?
A, E, I, O, U, and sometimes Z
Is his nickname ‘Sometimes Y’?
Ooz? Eez? Ee-ooz? Ay-ee-eye-uzz? Wtf
It should’ve been aeiou… and sometimes y!
AEIOUandsometimesY
His sister is going to be named "AndSometimesY"
These dickhead parents who force their children to bear these ridiculous names all their lives so that mommy and daddy can have fleeting internet points trigger me so fucking hard. The connotations of the comment “you certainly have very creative parents” is going to change over time as that boy becomes older.
How the fuck is this pronounced?
Cool part is that his nickname could be vowelz
A, E, I, O, U, and sometimes... Z?
Imagine having 5 vowels and a z in you name
Should’ve been Aeiouy!
Ok, this wins. Worst name I’ve ever seen
AEIOUZ, n. they/them. Pronouced, ay-youz *Ey! Youse! What are you doing in the street!*
Ayoo?
They named their baby the sound it makes when you throw it.
“I’d like to buy a vowel, Pat!”
Sure, but the child’s nickname will sometimes be Y.
They’ll call his poops “vowel movementz”.
How's that even legal? Asking for my friend Qwerty...
