Baby Names That
Are Plain Wrong

Would you name your son Pickle Parker? What about Ivana Tinkle? No, we aren’t playing a belated April Fool’s joke on you -- the U.S. Census Bureau says these are names given to real babies! We rounded up the best of the OMG baby names, hilarious twin names (Angelina and Jennifer?) and prank call names that will give you a big case of the LOLs!

Most parents put in a lot of time and effort coming up with the perfect baby name for their son or daughter. They make sure it sounds good with the last name, is relatively easy to spell and pronounce and some even make sure the initials don't spell anything crazy -- but not these parents!

We know celebrities are fond of weird baby names, such as magician Penn Jillette who named his daughter Moxie Crimefighter or actor Jason Lee who named his son Pilot Inspektor. However, bad baby names aren't just for celebs!

You named him what?

The website ancestry.com scoured names from the U.S. Census Bureau to come up with this list of truly bad baby names that were actually given to babies. All we can say is -- what were the parents thinking?
