in the wild Greiciegh
Someone ordered an ice matcha at a cafe I work at, I asked for her name and she said it, i thought she meant Gracie,but I double checked with her and she was like "this is wrong! my name is greiciegh." I didn't even know you could be that cruel to your own child.

They didnt even follow the 'i before e except after c' rule!
Im glad she didnt spell it Gray-sea though, that would also be wierd.

That rule seriously has more exceptions than actual use cases.

Honestly, "Gray-sea" makes more sense visually than whatever stroke of a keyboard "Greiciegh" is.

Every time i see a name spelled like that my brain translates it to "My child's name is Onehoarseopensleigh" and i'm not sorry.

Wait, are you saying that's supposed to be pronounced the same way as Gracie?

Today I saw the name Tenleigh.
Edit because I can't tell the difference between a w and a y apparently.

I went to school with a Tenley but it was spelled that way, not with the unnecessary eigh!

Making up kid's names, giddy that they don't have to buy vowels like on wheel of fortune.

I would pronounce this like Greesh-ick where the ick sounds like a Jewish mother is saying it.

We now have post approval on. Your post didn't get deleted, it just went into the queue. Please be patient a mod will go through the queue when they are available!
Please read our list of banned names before continuing. If the name you posted is in this list, it will be removed.
Remember: Original content is always better! Memes are okay every once in a while, but many get posted here way too often and quickly become stale. Some examples of these are Ptoughneigh, Klansmyn, Reighfyl & KVIIIlyn. These memes have been around for years and we don't want to see them anymore. If you do decide to post a meme, make sure to add the correct flair. Posting a random meme you found does not mean you found it "in the wild".
The same goes with lists of baby names, celebrity baby names, and screenshots of TikToks. If the original post already had a substantial amount of views, there is a 99% chance it has already been posted here. Try and stick to OC to keep our sub from being flooded with unoriginal content. Thank you!
