English first names for Punjabis are usually all kinds of lullz.
Know people named 'Sweety', 'Precious' and 'Lovely', I kid you not. It's their actual name again just ftr, not some joke pet name.

Don't so much mind the ones that are just "nice" words. I wouldn't call a kid something overly original myself, as a person has to introduce their name all the time and explaining it would get old after a while. But I don't think there's something inherently wrong with "Cherry" over some other plant that girls are typically named after.
Blatantly making up words is probably where I draw the line. Still can't quite get over Troyzan.

Some parents named their twins Benson and Hedges.
![]() Also it was in the paper that an Aussie (or was it Kiwi) couple named their daughter, "Thalula does the Hoola in Haiwai", or something like that. |

Nah, some Kiwi couple asked to name their daughter that, but the government ministry rejected it. Not that it makes it any better, mind.
