No fucking way. This is rage bait.
Even if this dogshit name was truly her most cherished wish, there's no chance you willingly take someone's name and then go on and complain about your actions.
Popular media is the worst place to find a name for your kid. Remember all the parents who named their daughters "Danerys," before she went insane in Season 8 and burned an entire city full of innocent people alive? I wonder how they feel about that choice now. That poor kid is doomed. You might as well give her a stripper name
I found the OP and their post got deleted, but the only comments she responded to were the supportive ones (maybe 1 or 2 out of dozens of "wtf is wrong with you" reactions).
The poster has a history dating back 2 years so I don't think it's a troll, or if it is it's convincing. I just can't believe anyone would actually want to name their kid fucking Blessica. Absolutely revolting name.
I agree about the name being horrible, but parents are going with more and more, let's just say 'unusual' names, spellings and pronunciations these days. I've got a Grandson named Charon. Socially, it hasn't really been a bonus for him.
Eh, the kid could have worse, and it seems pretty fitting for the name's origins.
If you think of children as blessings, and want to change an existing name a little -- in this case, Jessica -- it makes sense. The first recorded instance of Jessica is from Shakespeare, who could've changed the biblical Iesca (Jeska) to Jessica by mixing Jesse into it (or making Jesse into a woman's name... or other potential origins like the word jess being turned into a name.) And you consider Bless to be a name (though rather unpopular), so it wouldn't even be particularly odd for the name.
The kid could've been named "Anna" which also means blessing. She wanted to call her blessica because she was blessed to have her. Which yeah - just go with Anna
Yo straight people are the ones having waaay more kids and they're still naming plenty of them with non-stupid names. Let's focus the hate where it belongs: people who try to create personalities for themselves by using their child as a proxy for their unfulfilled hopes and dreams.
It's all my husband's fault that I want to curse my child with a shitty name. How they go through life doesn't matter to me. They're my creation, and what I want is all that matters.
What the actual fuck. Just name your kid Paisley if you don't care about their experience after they leave your body. Whether kids know who Jessica Simpson is or not, you're giving your kid a stupid name. They will correctly hate you for it.
Ok.....forget Jessica Simpson. Let's Thanos snap her out of existence, and then Men in Black laserpen flashy thing everyone on earth to forget she ever existed. Everybody on the same page then? Ok, cool. Let's continue.
I picture this as someone who goes to church a lot, reads romance novels, bakes awesome cookies, and says things like "sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mondays!"
The original community was namenerds and digging through the original poster's submission history I'm seeing some pretty bad poetry, 90 day fiance content and grieving the death of their parents: all spread out across the past year.
Projecting your views onto your kid only ends up with them resenting you and you feeling like they can't meet expectations.
Some things are non-negotiable: my kids aren't allowed to be disrespectful shit-bagels, but other than that they get to decide who they want to be. I am fortunate enough to get to discover that with them.
Jessica Simpson doesn't even need to exist. Blessica is a stupid enough name on its own. Added to the fact that their last name has the word "blimp" in it and that kid is looking at a life of being made fun of.
Honestly there's no way that kid doesn't get made fun of at least some purely for their last name. Add the first name of blessica and that kid is going to resent the hell out of her parents growing up.
I think that kid (probably fictitious) would get bullied regardless, Blimpson is an extremely unfortunate last name. To the best of my memory, Jessica Simpson was never that cringe, it's less of a problem... or it would be if Blessica wasn't an awful name.
I don’t think Jessica Simpson is the concern here. A judge would definitely grant the petition for someone to change their name if they were named “Blessica Blimpson”. What a derp name.
