Nimrod used to connote "hunter" until Bugs Bunny sarcastically called Elmer Fudd a "nimrod" to insult him. Hello, meaning shift.

[@cwheels01]

It's also important to note, Biblically, who Nimrod was. He sought to outright defy God, and treated God as a mortal (literally) enemy, in a sense. He was a hunter, yes, a hunter of men, and a godless tyrant at that. While we may not have used "nimrod" as an insult until recently, one could deduce that even Biblically it would make sense to refer to someone who is foolish as "Nimrod." After all, what's more foolish than trying to battle a force as powerful as one who created all? It's a fruitless-- a _foolish_ effort. Just food for thought. I should also add that because of this double-edged sword, anyone who names their child Nimrod, especially anyone of the Christian faith, is simply put-- a fucking nimrod.

[@svenlima]

In Switzerland it is forbidden to give a child a name that could affect its life in a negative way like being mobbed at school or being a laugh as an adult and stuff. You couldn't name it "Beautiful" because it's not an official name and the kid would suffer even as an adult. Take American celebryties who give their kids the silliest names like "North West" or "Willow", "Blue Ivy", etc. Sometimes there are just unfortunate combinations like a guy in Germany whose name is Axel. That's a commun name, however his lastname is Schweiss, which is a normal last name, too - but combined that's 'Axel Schweiss" which is translated as 'underarm perspiration' (!)

[@yltraviole]

Willow is actually a pretty common North-American word name. It's not like naming your kid "Apple" or something, more like naming it Daisy.

[@svenlima]

I find it strange to be named after a tree. Will you call your kid "Oak" or "Birch"? :-) Celebrities think that they're better than the rest of the world therefore their kids must have special names ... I copy-paste this list that I found: Onyx Solace (Morissette-Treadway) North (West) Saint (West) Rosalind Arusha Arkadina Altalune Florence (Thurman) Harper Seven (Beckham) Broocklin (Beckham) Moon Unit (Zappa) Dweezil (Zappa) Satchel (Allen) Bronx Mowgli (Simpson-Wentz) Fifi Trixibelle (Geldof) Peaches Honeyblossom (Geldof) Little Pixie (Geldof) Mysty Kyd (Spiteri) Apple Blythe (Paltrow) Dandelion (Richards) lijah Bob Patricius Guggi Q (Bono) Zowie Bowie (Bowie) Heavenly Hirani Tiger Lily (Hutchence) Summer Rain (Aguilera) Bodhi Ransom (Fox) Blue Ivy (J.Z.)

[@yltraviole]

Sven Lima I would call them Els or Linde, which are Dutch tree names. Is it so much stranger than naming you child after a flower? My point was just that while North and Apple are really just names completely made up by the parents, Willow isn't. Willow Smith isn't the first girl to be named Willow, it may be a newer name, but it does have precedence. Also, again Florence, Rosalind and Summer are pretty common American names, dude :P not really proof of celebrities wanting to be special. I'll admit that Dweezil is rather unorthodox, though.

[@svenlima]

yltraviole(t) The fact that a name is common doesn't mean that it is a good name. In Spanish speaking countries "Dolores" ist quite a common name, however it means "pain(s)". Or "Soledad" which means loneliness. Wow. "My name is Loneliness and this is my sister Pains. hmpf.

[@ServantOfPuppets]

"The fact that a name is common doesn't mean that it is a good name." Curious what you mean by that. The popularity of a name is a pretty good metric as to whether it's accepted or not. yltraviole correctly stated that some of those names are common and accepted. Someone named Willow, or Dolores, or Rosalind would not turn any heads in an English-speaking country. There are some that, as you said, are bad choices when considering the child's last name. Like "Mike Hunt" in English. But those kinds of cases are few and far between; Mike is still a fine name for 99% of English-speakers.

Bugs Bunny called Elmer Fudd Nimrod sarcastically because he was a bad hunter but people didn't get the reference so they thought that Nimrod meant idiot and it stuck

Now *that* is truly interesting.

What makes this truly funny is how everyone in the US claimed to be resolutely Christian back then, but were apparently completely unaware of this reoccurring character in the Bible.

¿Do Geese See God? Actually, originally audiences did get the joke! As time passed, audiences began to miss it and over time it became synonymous for idiot, but it didn’t start out that way!

My friends parents were going to call her Ophelia. Which is a lovely classical name. And then the remembered their last name...... True story.. Their last name is Dyck.

My dad knew a last who's name was Anita and she married a guy named Richard Dick 😂

I went to school with a Sandy Butts. Not even Sandra. Her name was Sandy Butts. She didn't show up for the first three weeks of school and I was convinced it was a joke on the roster. Then one day there's a blonde girl named who showed up in class.... Introduces herself and said thier move across the country got delayed. Yep. It was Sandy.

In England most of us know the word Nimrod means idiot in America.

[@emoXjessiX2030]

Ash OCR Runner but why name your baby that if you know it? It means rebel or rebellious. I don't think most parents want a rebellious child.

[@ashjvlogs]

pseirend some people in England genuinely don't know and just think it sounds easy to remember as it's only 2 syllables

[@arcbrush]

It's also a somewhat common Jewish name, though its losing a bit of it's use as people see that is a name made fun of. Same with Moran (moron) etc.

[@incompetentwarlock7288]

I actually didn't know Nimrod meant idiot in America. I always thought people named that where named after the Hawker Nimrod, a Navel Fighter introduced in 1933.

[@ambersunnyamber]

my uncle's name is Nimrod (my mom is not American), but she hates his name anyways because Nimrod is the guy who helped build the tower of Babel and strayed from God in the bible/torah......

In Iceland, you have to have a baby's name certified before you even think about naming it. - Unisex names don't exist - Names must tell gender - Names must follow Icelandic language grammar (which is already hard) due to the second name law, which is basically just a way to tell who your parent's/parents' name(s) is/are. - Family surnames almost don't exists, unless you're a foreigner that moved to Icelandic after 1991 (1996? I forgot), or you already have one, or you can trace back your ancestors and prove that they had a surname.

[@rachelcookie321]

Erik Emerölduson that sound weird....

[@sharielane]

Richard? Traditionally Dick is a pet form for Richard. Similar to Bill for William, Bob for Robert, or Chuck or Hank for Charles.

[@MrsInAbox]

I love the Icelandic names, and we nodded to it when we named our tiny human (who I was pregnant with when we were there). The last names of xyzson or xyzdottir is awesome too, and I kind of wish we had that tradition here in Australia!

[@dreamofcoheed3388]

If you don't have surnames then how would you refer to an entire family as a whole? Example: the Smith family.

[@rachelcookie321]

Dream Of Coheed in a lot of countries they don’t even refer to whole fabulous that way. Like they’ll say “John’s family”

I volunteered at an elementary school one time and there was a kid with the first name "ifonlymartinlutherkingjuniorwerestillalivetoday". Apparently his parents were upset because his name wouldn't fit on his birth certificate.

When you have a name with kanji that can be pronounced differently can you "change" your name by prounouncing it in the different way?

[@Nat1CreativityCheck]

Good thought

[@elephantshrew2000]

Well both the Kanji and how to read it is kept as your name so you can't really change it..
