What are the worst names you could give a baby boy? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hello you awesome people,

Friends are having a boy and everyone they know wants to push a name on the child. So I decided to be the best friend they could have and to offer only bad, ugly or horrendous names to the lucky parents so they could have a laugh. I already send them some names and dictators, Smeagol, Steve and Juan-Esteban.

So please, people or Lemmy, give me the worst names you could give a child, so that I can help them as a good friend!

Ps: don't worry, I've already planned some meals to drop off when the gremlin will be there to feed the parents. And some take-out vouchers so they won't get food poisoning

Popieanus, after the Roman politician. Yes, it's pronounced "poopy anus".

My dad wanted to name me 'Bentley' at some point. Glad my mum's stubborn and didn't let that happen.

One of my grandfather's names was Delbert. From what I've been told he was an asshole.
