The unique names left people scratching their heads
Well, more people are opting for unusual names than you might think, at least according to this Australian healthcare worker.
She recently took to TikTok to reveal some of the most bizarre names she's encounter as part of her job.
In the viral clip, she explained she'll often discuss some more unusual names with her co-worker, especially those of young people.
According to the healthcare worker, one strange yet popular names she came across was ABCDE, which is apparently pronounced 'Absidee'.
"We also had a young girl that we came across. I thought her name was pronounced Leah because it was spelled L E - A.
"You actually pronounce the hyphen as a dash, so it was pronounced Ladasha," she shared in the video.
And spelling is a whole other issue, she added, as she explained there was recently a girl who had the name "S, H, I, hyphen, T, H, E, A, D,"
"It was pronounced Shatheed, but they had essentially named their child S*******, and they thought it was hysterical," she claimed in the clip.
But those aren't the only unusual names to cause a stir online, as one mum revealed she wanted to name her little one after a mode of transport.

Taking to Reddit, the mum-to-be's concerned cousin revealed that she was desperate to talk her out of the unusual name.
She said: "I just got invited to the shower for my cousin's baby, and she's naming the baby...
"Trucklyn.
"No one is saying anything in the group chat about the fact that they're going to name this baby Trucklyn.
"I think I have to go to the baby shower to try and get them to change it, or at least figure out why."
The cousin added that she had tried to figure out if the name was a joke, but had so far been unsuccessful.
Reddit users flooded the comments section with their thoughts, with many critical of the unique moniker.
One person said: "It is your duty to try to convince them to change the name.
"Be like… 'oh for her first Halloween she can be a Monstertruck!', just to really let it settle in."
A second person said: "Poor kid wont stand a chance."
A third person said: "Is that part of the naming your kid after the place where it was conceived trend, but for poor people who can't afford to go to Paris?"
A fourth joked: "So when she gets sick, does she go to the doctor or the mechanic?"
