A little girl we met at the park had this name today 😬. Her mom asked me how I spell my daughter’s name and I said the “usual way”. I asked if she spelled “Persephone” different and she spelled this tragedeigh for me. I didn’t know what to say.

Account name covered for protection but I’m not sure how I feel about this name

Can't tell if I'm just ignorant of if I've caught one on fb

"Like the princess," they said.

Grown woman, dad is Cliff. Rural Appalachia. I think about it OFTEN. She said no nicknames, she goes by Clifftany

Reading a playbill for an upcoming play being done by our local community theater.

This play has several parts for children and one role is being played by a "Mauleigh" Smith(not actual last name)

Their parents should be place in a stockade and have cabbages thrown at them.

My niece’s name is ‘Abbegayle’. Is that a tragedeigh enough for here, because I’ve been looking at it for soooooo long… I loved the name until I saw this.
Edit for spelling ‘niece’

Looking through Instagram at old enemies and this popped up and I couldn't believe anyone could do such a thing to a baby, but they did. Is this as bad as i think?

i recently stumbled across historical baby name data from 1918 in huffpost and noticed some... interesting choices parents made over a century ago.

two notable examples i found were Normal and Chlorine.

since "tragedeighs" are usually modern misspelled names (like Khlorreene), do you consider weird/unfortunate standard-spelling names from 100 years ago to be "tragedies", or do they fit into the same category?

I know Devlin or Devlon or however it’s supposed to be spelled is not very common but is a rather normal name but why the random capitol L. Not sure if it makes it bad enough to classify as a tragedeigh but I for sure rolled my eyes reading it.

Considering baby names and ran across Jayma pronounced “Jay-ma” literally like it’s spelled. So many people see it and say “Ja-mya” or some other abomination like “Ja-mi-e-ah.”

Don’t want to give a beautiful name that will get tragedeigh pronunciations or is that just a sign of the times/education system/reading level?

My kids met a little boy at a new playground today. Rosember 😅 didn't ask the thought behind it. Kid was running around in his diaper sippin on blue stuff while his parents were puffing away on some cigs.

What is it? Cross between rose and november?

My friend's name is Krystyne (aka Christine), and she's currently annoyed about it. The first comment said, "blame your parents" and he's not wrong. She goes by Krysty (Christy)

Today I learned that the niece of General Sherman (US civil war general) was Dr Euthanasia Meade. She was in obstetrics.

Jhayden (and spellcheck wanted Hayden-lol)

I always thought it was Jayden. Why the H?
