Over the last few decades, humanity has seen it’s share of weird baby names. From the now innocuous Apple to the terrible Moon-Unit to the groan-worthy Renesmee, there are a lot of kids walking around with internal countdowns to eighteen when they can legally be free of their identity albatross.
Until now, all those kids could lay the blame squarely their parents’ feet. But no more! Now the Internet at large will be responsible for years of therapy for poor Baby McLaughlin.

As of this posting, the current winning moniker doesn’t even sound like a girl’s name. Come on, guys! If you have to name her after a dark all-powerful god from the Lovecraft lexicon at least go with Cthulhu’s bride, Kassogtha.
Of course, these parents aren’t completely irresponsible. A disclaimer on their website, NameMyDaughter.com, does state they have final veto say over Baby McLaughlin’s name.
