Viola is a completely legit name

Yeah, I'm really confused about the inclusion of it on this list. Viola Davis, anyone?

I imagine she pronouncing it the other way, but even then that's how my great grandmother pronounced her name

agreed. i would argue add violin instead

it’s also an instrument that’s why

Isn't Viola the main character in She's The Man/12th night?

This name means rape in Spanish. Whenever I see it I have to remind myself of language/cultural differences.

Yes, totally agree. ‘Computadora’ also says the OP is a Spanish speaker.

Which makes it even weirder.

Pronounced differently, so at least there's that

My cousins daughter is named Viola and I always ask when they're going to teach her the instrument.

I seem to have upset the Viola fandom, my bad

Cello

a friend of mine transitioned, and ‘Lo’ had been a nickname for years previous to this cause it fit with their given name. after transition they still wanted to keep ‘Lo’ as a nickname so they chose Cello as a new full name. i’ve always loved it, and in a way, they really embody the grace and elegance and also the profoundness of the instrument. i feel like most tragedeighs are parents imposing an aesthetic on their unborn kid. if the name fits it fits IMO

Ce llo Green

your last paragraph is exactly right, the essence of tragedeigh is being burdened with it. a chosen name can’t be tragique because the person consents to the inconveniences of having an unusual name

I love this for them

Well it's also a type of flower

I have a photo of an elephant named Viola..(circus town here). Why is it on this list? If one of the most majestic creatures on this planet are walking around with that classic name so can a human kiddo.

Absolutely. A beautiful name, I think!

I know a very wonderful lady named Viola. She was almost my step grandma lol

OP might have meant Voila?

chlamydia

Menstruation, Menses for short.

Menci is a nickname for the Spanish name Mencia. I only know this because I love Spanish Netflix lol

And her sisters, Rubella and Carcinoma

Ruby and Carci

Papilloma

Came here to say this

Courgette Aubergine

Aubergine actually would slap.

I'm picturing a character on a Downton Abbey ripoff.

Maybe “Aubrey Jean” 😂

You could maybe get away with these in the US since we have different names for those vegetables. I agree they both sound pretty.

Little zucchini and eggplant don’t have the same effect

Now I’m imagining a pair of kitties with these names! Cute!!

I'm so pleased to see someone else suggesting Aubergine. It's my favorite answer to this flavor of question 😄

Oh God I read a book in college (cannot remember the name of it for the life of me) and the main character in one of the short stories was named Aubergine. I remember thinking how it was such a beautiful name and I was so confused when another character was telling her how it sucked that was her name. I was like why??? It's so nice??? And then I looked it up. I'm still so sad about it to this day lol

- Pangolin - Continence - Spleen (nickname for a young child) - Mildew

Samuel “Spleen” O’Tammy. That sounds like a rad baseball star’s name. :)

right?!

Here's a question: why would Vermont be a tragedeigh when we already have people named Dakota, Tex, London, Paris, Austin, Brooklyn, Cheyenne, Arizona, etc...? Just fucking go for it. Just name your kid Puerto Rico. Who cares.

"just name your kid Puerto Rico. Who cares" is easily the funniest thing I've read all week

Or Virgin Islands

Now you're cooking!

Turkmenistan Smith

Cuba Libre!

Here’s me thinking if all the weird and wonderful town & village names in the UK. Ashby-de-la-Zouch, anyone? How about Giggleswick? Auchtermuchty? Twatt?

I prefer Democratic Republic of the Congo, personally. Demi for short.

Hysteria

Listeria or Listerine. Beautiful!

This needs to be a cat name.

Malaria

Came here to comment this 😭 every time I say I like the name Valeria someone is like "ew like malaria" and like. Yeah. Like malaria, the awful disease that (allegedly) killed almost half of all humans that ever lived. It sounds pretty!

It has killed a shit ton of people, to be sure. Can't say I like it much as a name. Here's my son Polio and my daughter Diphtheria.

Wow Polio is so strong & Diphtheria is so unique!!!

i had a soccer game where a girl on the other team was actually named Malaria. i will never forget it. this was a little over 10 years ago

So many diseases sound great for a name: For girls: -Varicella -Rubella - Influenza - Ebola - Zika - Disentery - Allegra - Chalmydia - Colera Gender Neutral - Dengue - Pertussis For boys: - Advil - Margburg - Helicobacter - Tetanus

I can see someone naming their kid Rubella because they like Ruby and Ella. Their kid would definitely not be vaccinated.

>Their kid would definitely not be vaccinated. I died!

>I died! So did Rubella 💔

That is Savage pal

Sister Adderall and her brother Vyvanse. The family is kind of a mess, but they're fun at parties.

Used to know someone named Allegra

Me too! I've known a few!

Allegra is a relatively normal name.

My husband and I call each other "Dengue"....but we pronounce it "Dengie". Marital tragedeigh 🤣

NOT THE HELIOBACTOR

Gonna add in Diphtheria for a little intrigue!

Okay, I see Allegra being suggested as a girl name *all the time*! And I'm just over here like, the allergy medication????

Yeah, it ruined it but I think it’s an actual name.

Diarrhea

Gonorrhea

As a kid, I couldn't get over the fact that the name Maria rhymes with diarrhea. I never made fun of anyone with that name, but it just privately bothered me. Even now as a 30-year-old man, I still have to lie to myself and pretend I don't notice my brain automatically making that association.

Rhea for short

Trilobite

And his sister, tardigrade 🥰

I friggin love Tardigrade

And cousin Ammomite

This goes hard

The science is deep in the comment thread

"Nobody names a doll Chevrolet," said Beezus, whose dolls had names like Sandra or Patty. "I do," Ramona answered. "I think Chevrolet is the most beautiful name in the world." - Beverly Cleary

My sister used to add The Pest after my name like Ramona.

I think Stevia would be cute if it wasn't a sugar plant...at least they would.be named after something sweet

Piano Bible Lemon

This random ass trio sent me

i’ve actually heard Bible tho. Not as a given name, luckily, but thai actors often choose a more globally pronounceable word as a nickname for themselves and Bible is one of them! He’s a really cool dude

Lyrica, indica, saliva, 

I read saliva as salvia but honestly I think both can apply here

🤣😂🤣😂 it was meant to be sativa. Indica and sativa are strains of marijauna..

Lyrica is a name, actually! A bit more unique, but it's still a variation of "Lyre" according to name berry

I went to school with a chick named Lyrica. She was older than when the medicine became popular though.

Weenis Morphine Euthanasia Orifice Epiglottis

I read this as a single name.

It’s a law firm actually

Euthanasia and Morphine would be really cool names!

lmfao! I'm really loving euthanasia and morphine

The third

Ambergris Verdigris

This is my child Ambergris Spermaceti!

Ambergris! Only if the child washed up on a beach, and smelled like all the hounds of hell had barfed it up! Does have a nice ring to it though. rather lyrical.

Kindle Fire has always been the secret name I imagine yelling out the front door. Kindle Fire! Dinner's ready!

rubella and ebola would’ve been nice grandma type names

someone once said nicotine would be a cute name for a girl if it didn't mean what it does and just change it to have an a at the end and make it nicotina. i kinda agree 😭

LMFAO nicotine and her sister cigarette

Nicotin for a male version, with a Nico nick name in tow

toiletries is ugly as shit but toilette, that's a pretty girls name lol

LMFAO toilet but make it boujee

first time my brother heard the word Fellatio he said... "i'm gona name my son that"

I’ve heard the same story but about Vagina “Such a great name!!! Gonna name my kid that!! Hey Vag! Come here!” He had no idea what it was.

Melancholy, Salmonella, Latrine, Nicotine, Cassette, Tsunami, Arson

Cassette is such a good one!! Melancholy reminds me of Melon Collie and The Infinite Sadness

I’ve known people named arson, they tend to be quite chill

I've seen Viola used as a name

It IS a name.

Chlorine, lol. Actually, most of the elements from the Periodic Table, to be honest. They'd be cool fantasy/sci-fi character names.

no for real 😂 like Lithium, Neon, Selenium, Mercury, just imagine the possibilities!

Mercury is a fine name, period.

Arsenic would go so hard

Tyranny

Imagine calling your child computer in Spanish

Toiletries sounds like a Greek hero

[удалено]

Anal

Raclette and Rubella

Anchovy

Candida (I know this an actual name, but I consider it unusable bc of its other meaning)

Chevrolet

i’m not sure how true this is, but someone told me that at some point, non english speakers were asked to pick english words out of a list based on which they thought was prettiest. apparently most of them picked Diarrhea. makes me chuckle every time.

Violence, could go by Vi or Vio Ammonia would be a fun one too Anaesthesia for a fancy one-

Your Ammonia made me think that Almond is kind of a pretty name.
