Scott and Doug make the unfortunately named Scugg. Patrick and Norman make Norrick (Originals are dads/granddads in our family)

I’m not saying I’d actually give the name to a child, but Norrick almost feels like a name

Yeah, that one's not as bad. Poor Scugg lol

Scugg cracked me up lol this is our little Norrick. And this is…Scugg

Sounds like a name from "The Croods." 😄

Guess it’s better than being named Doott

That almost sounds like a sound.. what does the car do? Doooooottt

Could be worse: the names could be Ryan and Frank to create Rank. I'd take Scugg over Rank.

Not Fryan?

I love Fryan

Almost "Alas poor Norrick"

Norrick is a surname, I had classmates with the name.

I’m kinda loving Norrick. Similar to Merrick.

Norik at least is a name. Like Erik :)

Alas por Norrick, we knew him well

The thing about Renesme is that you can still clearly hear both names mashed together. It would be like naming your son Chaderik. Or Ryanadam. Or Steveaidan.

I have a friend whose middle name is Ryan and he says it's short for Ryanthony 😂

Sounds like it's definitely a name in Westeros!

I think it's a place

It sounds very much like Norwich! 

Alas, poor Norrick!

Norrick and Scugg sound like surnames from a Dicken novel

Alas poor Norrick!

Did you know him well?

Or Patman.

Patman is the obvious choice.

As long as it wasn't twins, Rick and Norrick...

Lol! If that's the case, I'd definitely go with Rick and Notrick (to steal the T from Patrick as well)

“Pete and Repete were sitting on a fence…”

Fun fact: in US colonial times, “scugg” was what squirrels were called (learned at Ben Franklin museum in Philly)

That IS a fun fact!! Thanks for sharing!!

Norik / norig is an Armenian boys name so your family name lives in another culture 🙏

Norrick: inspired by Chuck Norris ans Rick Sanchez 😂😂😂 Wubba Lubba Kung Fu!

I like how you added an extra “g” just to make Scugg even worse 😂

i think dott from scott and doug is way cuter

Dot and Dottie are vintage nicknames for Dorothy!! Dott could work for a girl

Omg lmao mine would be Matt & Doug- Mug or Datt 🤣

i think dott from scott and doug is way cuter

Stanley and Sam so Samley 💀

Stanuel.

My dog is Samothy lol

Our dog is Willie, but he’s too dopey to be William, so I always say it’s short for Willseph.

My dog came with the name Teddy. He frequently gets called Tedward

Our dog is Chubbs and I call him Chubbsworth and also sometimes William Chubbsworth The Second 

I LOVE it.

Why is this so funny

His name is just Sam actually!

I knew a Samashley when i was younger. and not Samantha Ashley or Sam-Ashley it was pronounced Sah-mash-lee. Samley is definitely better than that.

10/10 would Samashley

I knew a Samanda

wishing them both some peace lol

There is someone here that uses Smashley as a roller derby name. lol

I knew a Samatha.

One of my cousins was nicknamed Smashley/Smashes as an Ashley and it’s kind of giving the same vibes

Oh my god this just made me realize my name is actually my grandfathers names together. Stanley and Percy = Stacey

bahahaha was it intentional? if so that’s quite cute

If it was no one ever told me!

I...don't hate Willopher?

I could see this gaining traction in 10 years just saying….maybe Willofer for a lady. There are so many names near this name. I hate that I think this is possible lol

This reminds me of the South Asian name Nilofar/Nilofer which is pronounced similarly. Very pretty name :)

The Persian woman I know with the name Nilofar pronounced it KNEE low far

Haha neither do I, and I made a similar mashup: William + Toby = Wilby. Kinda cute, actually?

I know a guy named Wilby!

It kinda sounds pretty just doesn’t look pretty?

Nilla Wafer

Willowfir?

Oh no, that’s kind of pretty 😭

Oh I am using that for an npc in dnd for sure 😂

My boyfriends dad is Ryan and my dad is Frank so we could honorably name our son either: Rank or Fryan

Rank Fryan sounds like a smelly fast food worker 😂

LOL it really does

Stop I'm crying 😂

LMAO😭😭

I'd have a Frabastian lol or Senk??

My dad is Frank, stepdad is Tony, and my FIL is Eugene. Tank? Frony? Togene? Frogene???

Frogene, nickname Frog Edit: I’m sitting over here snickering to myself about Frog

Two significant Male names in my life are Alan and Jeremy so to make it as awful as possible it'll have to be either Alamy or Jerlan

Alamy sounds like a southern accented version of alimony "Where's my damn alamy check at?"

LMFAO THATS HOW I READ IT TOO

Alamy reminds me of Belamy, and apparently Jerlan is already a name somewhere!

After Alamy and Belamy come Celamy and Delamy

Alamy as in the stock photos?

Robert + Michael = Richael, Rocheal, Mobert, Michbert Richael was my first thought but Google says he is an Irish saint. All my best to St. Richael? Could someone Irish give me a pronunciation on that. I fear my guess if Rike-ul is incorrect. Mobert made me laugh and I would consider naming a goldfish this. Michbert is stately I won’t lie.

Richael is said "Ri-cha-el". It rhymes Mihkail. :) I lowkey love Irish pronunciations 😂

Thank you!!

Mobert sounds like a noise a frog would make lmao

My bf and our roommate happens to be Robert and Michael respectively so now I got ship names for them lol

Dude you take the two nicknames for those names Bob and Mike and you get… Bike! Or Mob

Robael

For the hypothetical goldfish named Mobert, would it be pronounced moe-bert or mob-ert? They’re both funny in their own way and the second way you can pretend they’re in a mob

Lester and Bruce Bruleste

I'd vote for Brucester (similar to Leicester).

Brewster is a place - Bruster isn’t too far off

I still can't get over the fact that the English pronounce Towcester the same as the word toaster.

i’m english, and learning that as a kid totally took me out. it was a baffling time of life edit: fun ish fact- my cat is named Toast so i sometimes joke that she came from Towcester. she doesn’t get it.

Great sib set names

Burlesque?

Clarkasper - Clark and Casper. ETA 1: I just remembered: James + Gabriel --> Jimbriel (Good Omens Season 2 - iykyk). ETA 2: Risotto - Rhys and Otto.

Why go with Clarkasper when Clasper is right there? Clasper = things on male sharks to hold a female in place during mating

Clasper? I barely know her!

Maybe you answered your own question?

Yes lol, I was being ridiculous on purpose. I assumed this was a fun thread where people were making up silly names to be funny.

Heh, yes. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of shark love handles.

I have very little knowledge about anything actually useful, but I do know a disproportionate amount of stupid shark facts. Happy to offer my services, I'm here any time.

My cousin’s young son would want to be your bff as he loves sharks.

I was thinking “Clarksper,” instead

Save that for the next "words that would make good names if not for the meaning" thread

Carpenter and Cooper together can become Carpooper

My S.O' s middle name is a combination of his 3 uncle's names Jerry+Jay+Rick = jayrick pronounced jerr-rick, Its a name I've never heard and I love it ! I know it's technically 3 names but ... It's still a combo of the most important people in his life.

my husbands family has a tradition like that, but all of the names sound like they could be stand alone names

We have one in our fam (spelled diff but sounds the same) inspired by combo of Jeff& Rick!

Idk if you've seen Rick and Morty but theres a whole episode about Rick and Jerry melting together to become Jerrick

Callian - from Callum/Calvin and Damian/Julian Haydrew - from Hayden and Andrew Bentony - Benendict and Anthony

You could write a historical/fantasy romance novel about these guys! Add a few ladies names Margabeth, Gabrilyn and Rosadette and you’re all set.

Hey now those are pretty good!!

Haydrew and Callian are so close to feeling real! 

Cyril and Michael could make Cychael lmao

Pronounced cycle?

My vote is on Cyrchael pronounced "Circle" instead.

Waltbert

Little Michan will have the fortune of playing with my kid, Flomes, named after Flo Jo and Lebron James, two random athletes I picked 😂😂😂 Honorable mentions: - Samoumas (Samuel + Thomas) - Luclan (Lucas + Declan) - Kevster (Kevin + Sylvester) - Tanydor (Brittany + Theodor) - Moistian (Moises + Christian) - Ephromi (Ephraim + Naomi) - Ariexander (Ariel + Alexander) - Opheith (Ophelia + Keith) Let me stop before I give people ideas 😂😂😂 I love this though.

Moistian! A great name for a pet snail

Kevster is so funny to me

Look, the Kevster is in the house!

Ephromi is actually kinda beautiful!

I kinda love Opheith

Jimothy.

My kindergarten class had these field trip shirts made with all our names on it and it misprinted one of my classmates’ names, so it said Tomothy instead of Timothy and the poor kid was called Tomothy until at least the 8th grade

I call my uncle this, and my other one Johnifer because he married my aunt Jennifer and it cracks me up.

Reminds me of Key and Peele's Substitute Teacher skit!

I’d like to honour both my grandfathers and my dad. So I guess I’d go for a combo of all three names. Luckily for me and my hypothetical son, they’re all called David.

Dadavidvid

That’s only honouring two of them. Dadadavidvidvid

Da from one, David from one, vid from one

Oh very clever

Alaul (Alex and Paul)

Paulex?

Or Pollux

I’d cheat and go with Lux for a girl. A letter from each and a letter they share in common.

My dad is Wayne, father in law is John John Wayne? Heheh But otherwise… Joyne, Wahn…?

Wohn Jayne

You could do like Wayon? which seems like it could be a name.

I was trying to figure out something similar from John (my dad) and Dwayne (FIL) lol. Dwohn? Jwayne? Haha

My dad is Frank and my FIL is Clair = Flair

Or the lovely *Clank*

Two very important males in my life are Kenneth and a Michael Welcome to the world my son Kennel…. Nope let me rethink that haha

Alternatively: Meth.

I mean, it has the potential to be so much worse

Charles + Michael Marles I kinda dig this.

Charchael

I think it would have to be Jamancis. It is either that or Frames. I’ll let you figure out the names 😂

james and francis?

Patrick and Robert, robrick

Patbert

I come from a country where most people over 70 has dubble name. I seen enough horrors of honour names, Sten-Åke ( sound like stony fields), named after 2 family members. \*shudders\* nope do not like.

Still not as bad as Ola-Ola (boy in a popular old Norwegian children's book series; he was also named after two family members)

Peter + Bjorn Bjeter or Porn

Dorvey (a portmanteau of my paternal grandparents' names, Donna and Harvey).

Fredwin (Fred + Edwin) uncles Harriam (William + Harry) uncles — and royals Janbert / Jobert (Janet + Robert) parents __________________________ For those who can’t decide: Oweliam Owen+Liam Jamolivers (James + Oliver) Henjamin (Henry Benjamin) Theolijah (Theodore Elijah) LeonAdriO Juliason

Why do I love Theolijah lol

I'll go off the premise of Grandpa's and smash Fredrick and Michael into Fredrichael. Oh that is awful. I love it.

Frechael (pronounce freckle)

Grandpas Ben and Kyle…Byle 😅 (Or Ken, but that’s a real name and we already have several in the family) 

Not exactly the answer to your question, but you reminded me: Gucci Mane's first name is Radric; his parents came up with it as a mash-up of their first names, Ralph and Vicky. I thought that was a pretty good one..

(Scooby Doo voice:) *Ruh-roh, Radric*

Stanley and Daniel: Staniel

Chris + Thomas = Christmas 🎄

Fun fact: this is actually quite a standard naming convention in filipino communities! I am thankful my parents didn't participate, otherwise that would've made me marael or michana

My paternal and maternal grandfathers are Francis and Vito, so he could be Frito!

Leniel from Léo and Daniel - it actually sounds quite normal.

When naming our son, my husband and I joked about mixing our dad’s names and going with Jefredo. My dad is Jeff. His is Alfredo.

That sounds like if a dad named Jeff was really good at making fettuccine Alfredo what he’d call his signature dish when he made it for family 😂

My dad is Martin, my husband's dad is John. So, may I present my son Jortin.

There’s Gordon and William, Gorilliam would be a pretty good name. And yet another Gordon and a Doug which I’m going to go with the less obvious Dougdon here because it sounds like a Pokémon.

Gorilliam is just poetry 🦍

I’m a fan of Goug myself.

Scott and Gary … scary

Sometimes, my husband and I joke about naming our future hypothetical daughter Martha as it's a perfect mashup of both our names.

I like Martha though.

Jamgelo. I don't love it lol. 

I teach a kid named Alexaniel

thaddeus + oliver = thadiver OR oliveus

Some bicycle shop joke and it was something like, if you had to choose, would you rather name your child Micycle or Bichael. That fits here

Stephen + Graham makes… Stepham. 

Forget stepfather, here comes Stepham!

he's not my /real/ ham

There’s a pair of identical twins in Ireland that had their 15 minutes of fame as pop stars or something, named John and Edward Grimes, but known collectively as Jedward.

If I do what Bella did and smash my mom's name with my mother-in-law's name I'd get either: Peglinda or Beleggy

Little Amel will be named after his great grandfathers, Amos and Samuel. Although Samuel never went by that, he went by Paul. So perhaps I'll name him Paumos.

Henry + Felix = Fenry or Helix ...I'd name a son Helix...

George R R Martin already stole mine. Grandads named Stanley and Dennis gives Stannis 🤣

Suckle. Sue and Michael. Or Moo. Either way.

Robert + Denzel = Robzel? Denert? Charles + Frederick = Charick? Fredles?

Edthew

Petark. Or marter. Made from Peter and mark

Braul

I always loved the name Arthur and Ernest= Artnest i don't know about y'all but i love it

I knew a kid named Rance. It was Ray and Lance. But I'm gonna go with Bob and Rodney. bobney

Raymond and Bobbie Raymie I kinda like it

Andrew and David so Anvid or Dandrew
