A hilarious and astounding piece of history,
I’ve read a number of baby name books, but it never occurred to me that among them would be one dedicated to the WORST names possible.
Some of the names in here defy description. It’s amazing to think of people actually being named things like Evil Blessing! And they’re all from the U.S. Census!
I had a great time reading this with my kids on a recent roadtrip. Highly recommended to all parents: think of the names you could have saddled your kids with!

|This is seriously funny!,
I’ve read books over the years about what to name the baby, but have never seen a book that is factual and reviews some of the worst names in the U.S. Census. I find it difficult to believe that parents could look at their beautiful baby and name them Wrath or Sloth, but it seems they did. Surely the mothers were not awake when these names were bestowed! A great book and one that will make you laugh when you reflect on someone else’s misery!

|Hilarious – and a great gift for a baby shower!,
What a hilarious book! A friend gave it to me, and I was howling not only about the names but over the great pictures in the book, too. And if you think you have a reason to hate your parents, you’ll think again after seeing names such as Hunter Fisher, Acne Fountain, Lotta Bull, and Nighten Day.
A perfect baby shower gift!
