What irks me the most is the effort these idiot parents will go to give their baby as basic a name as "Allison" or "Ashley"

  • Ashlie
  • Ashlee
  • Ashly
  • Ashleigh
  • Ashlea
  • Ashli
  • Ashely
  • Ashlei
  • Ashleah
  • Asheleigh
  • Ashelie
  • Ahshlee
  • the list goes on and on and on

No amount of vowels is going to make your kid's name stand out when at the end of the day it's the same pronunciation as the most common, basic form of it.

Mötley might be weird but it's at least unique.

the canonical spelling is ashley btw.

You spell it in any other fucking way and you should be inflicted with the curse of dyslexia for the rest of your livable life.

[-] MadBob@feddit.nl 2 points 7 months ago

"Ashleigh" is normal too and not a part of this modern spelling trend. For example, this one was born in 1912: https://olympics.com/en/athletes/ashleigh-gordon-pilbrow

i mean yeah, but what other names were common in 1912 that aren't today lol.

It's not unique at all, it's the first half of a shitty 80s cock rock band.

An awesome shitty 80s cock rock band! (I adore that garbage)
