Cliffs Notes:
If you name your kid a stupid name, mean people will make fun of you and your kid.

While it was moronic of the flight attendant to post it online....
The mother had to have known this would happen all the time, that every single teacher the kid ever has is going to stare at that name during attendance and HAVE to single her out and ask how in the world her name is pronounced.

I remember a comedian (Amy Schumer I think) saying there should be Google in the delivery room so when dumb parents say names like Abcde, Google would step in and say Did you mean Abby?

Coincidentally the word pig is a synonym for the name Amy Schumer.

I'm going straight to hell. I know it.

You know it's an absolutely dumb name when the Mom has a legit complaint with the employee posting about it and especially if the employee does all the other jerk stuff that was mention in the article but NOBODY is talking about that or even mentioning it. They're just talking about the worlds dumbest name lol

Dunno, but it probably sounds about right with food in your mouth.

If she was dumb enough to name her kid Abcde, no, she likely isn't smart enough to have considered the ramifications of doing so.

Or, maybe they think the girls gonna have the cities greatest abs???

If she didn't name her daughter that, how else could she remember her password?
I just hope her son 12345 isn't getting the business over his unusual moniker, too.

Am I racist for thinking the family in question was black?

Maybe Im going crazy but I remember reading about some unique names some years back and Abcde was definitely mentioned. I think Algae also made an appearance. I wish I would have saved that.

I thought it was pronounced ab-see-dee. Close enough.

Thought the same, not racist. You're just basing it off of experience.
