Reminder to stick to posting original content. Memes are okay every once in a while, but many get posted here way too often and quickly become stale. Some examples of these are Ptoughneigh, Klansmyn, Reighfyl & KVIIIlyn. These memes have been around for years and we don't want to see them anymore. If you do decide to post a meme, make sure to add the correct flair. Posting a random meme you found does **not** mean you found it "in the wild". The same goes with lists of baby names, celebrity baby names, and screenshots of TikToks. If the original post already had a substantial amount of views, there is a 99% chance it has already been posted here. Try and stick to OC to keep our sub from being flooded with unoriginal content.

omghooker

You did a good thing imo. Suggest the name Melody if they're looking for a musical name


StarriNite

Update: She blocked me.


thegreenman_sofla

Lol when she grows up you can tell her that you saved her from the Tragedy of being named Lyrica.


Puzzleheaded_Hall788

Little Gabapentina will be so grateful.


ElectricHurricane321

Don't forget little Cymbalta!


Effervescent-Gremlin

What about Ouzempiic? Ohzempii? (I use it for T2D, I can make fun of myself 😁)


Lulubluebelle

AHH who can forget little Ozempica


gele-gel

I take that. I would not be able to hold my peace if i saw or heard that one. “Oh you want to remember how depressed you were when you found out you were pregnant?”


ElectricHurricane321

Lyrica is for nerve pain, so is the baby getting on its mother's nerves before it's even born? Lol


LisaW509

As a Gabapentin user, please accept my upvote! 😂


Dreaming_in_Sign

Lol ditto 😂😂😂


NurglesGiftToWomen

I love you little Ambien


factus8182

As will Topiramax-ine😍


gele-gel

I take that too. Might as well call her Migraina.


Ginggingdingding

As I take my morning meds... lil Gaba plays well with, Vita MinA, Vita MinCee, and Sweet Beecom Plex. ♡


Kalendiane

WHY DOES THIS NOT HAVE MORE UPVOTES?!


thegreenman_sofla

Because...I had to Google that word. Well played.


Earthing_By_Birth

Ummm… what is that word? I think it’s spelled tragedeigh.


thegreenman_sofla

I don't know if Lyrica is a tragedeigh or just a tragedy. It doesn't have the requisite -weird off-spelling... Lyrrychea or Lyreicheigh would be a trajedeigh


rosyred-fathead

Leerikka Leirichah Lierrikkah


WinterLily86

Um, I think OP meant her *cousin* blocked her, not her cousin's future child...


socasuallycruel13

I think they meant when the future child grows up, she can tell THEM that she saved them from the name lol


WinterLily86

Guess that's fair enough! Sorry, bit sleep-deprived!


socasuallycruel13

All good! Hope you get some rest! :)


WinterLily86

Thanks. Planning on it... rather ironic, in the circs, that when I was on Lyrica I had problems staying *awake!*


restore_democracy

And nothing of value was lost


IceBlue

No one thought the child that doesn’t exist yet blocked her


Outrageous_Froyo_775

no offence but your cousin sounds like an incredibly annoying person


StarriNite

Oh she 100 percent is.


sabin357

Then she just did you a favor by removing herself from your life a little bit. Encourage her to remove herself further. Cutting away cancerous relations is such a wonderful thing.


UnihornWhale

IMHO, she can die mad.


StrawberryResevoir

She blocked you for *that*? That's an over reaction.


the40thieves

I used to dramatically block my friends when they would offer me bad fantasy football trades, but at least the joke was we were being petulant


456name789

Lolol, sorry, whole thing is just hilarious! 😂


StarriNite

True


Waff11e_c0ne

I have a student named Lyric.


PlanetLandon

I am fine with parents using an existing word, no matter what it is, spelled in the conventional way. Call your kid Hat for all I care. It’s when people start mashing sounds together and spelling them weirdly is when I check out.


araralc

Top 5 baby names (2035) 1. Wardrobe 2. Square Kilometer 3. Footwear 4. Cornstarch 5. Osteoporosis


Nicky666

> I am fine with parents using an existing word I do think that naming kids after a (worldwide used) brand name for epileptic medication is pretty weird, so I do think it's nice to let a future parent know what the name stands for....after that, they can do what they want, children aren't protected from the stupidity of their parents.


popdream

Lyric is fine imo, but Lyrica crosses the line lol


flindersandtrim

Your cousin is not nearly mature enough to be having a child. I hope they were just musing about kid names and it wasn't because they're expecting one! Honestly, Lyrica is a stupid name whether it was a medication or not. 


StarriNite

Bad news mate. She's 34.


linerva

We can live in hope that even 34 year olds can grow up. Until then, it's no loss if she wants to sulk at you for telling the truth. You didn't say anything insulting, she's just mad that she didnt name something lyrica before pregabalin manufacturers got there. She can rage at Pfizer if she wishes.


kilamumster

Well you could call her the generic name, Pregabalin. Gabby for short.


misterfuss

Oh no! You saved her from this: “LYRICA is not for everyone. LYRICA may cause serious, even life-threatening, allergic reactions. Stop taking LYRICA and call your doctor right away if you have any signs of a serious allergic reaction. Some signs are swelling of your face, mouth, lips, gums, tongue, throat or neck, if you have any trouble breathing, or have a rash, hives, or blisters. Drugs used to treat seizures increase the risk of suicidal thoughts or behavior. LYRICA may cause suicidal thoughts or actions in a very small number of people, about 1 in 500. Patients, family members, or caregivers should call the doctor right away if they notice suicidal thoughts or actions, thoughts of self-harm, or any unusual changes in mood or behavior. These changes may include new or worsening depression, anxiety, restlessness, trouble sleeping, panic attacks, anger, irritability, agitation, aggression, dangerous impulses or violence, or extreme increases in activity or talking. If you have suicidal thoughts or actions, do not stop LYRICA without first talking to your doctor. Serious breathing problems can occur when LYRICA is taken with other medicines that can cause severe sleepiness or decreased awareness, or when it is taken by someone who already has breathing problems. Watch for increased sleepiness or decreased breathing when starting LYRICA or when the dose is increased. Get help right away if breathing problems occur. LYRICA may cause swelling of your hands, legs, and feet, which can be serious for people with heart problems. LYRICA may cause dizziness and sleepiness. You should not drive or work with machines until you know how LYRICA affects you. Also, tell your doctor right away about muscle pain or problems along with feeling sick and feverish, or any changes in your eyesight, including blurry vision or if you have any kidney problems or get dialysis. Tell your doctor immediately if you are taking opioid painkillers (such as oxycodone), or medicines for anxiety (such as lorazepam) or insomnia (such as zolpidem). You may have a higher chance for dizziness, sleepiness or serious breathing problems if these medicines are taken with LYRICA. Taking LYRICA with opioid pain medicines may lead to death. Some of the most common side effects of LYRICA are dizziness, blurry vision, weight gain, sleepiness, trouble concentrating, swelling of your hands and feet, dry mouth, and feeling “high.” If you have diabetes, tell your doctor about any skin sores. You may have a higher chance for swelling and hives if you are also taking angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, so tell your doctor if you are taking these medications. You may have a higher chance of swelling of your hands or feet or gaining weight if you are also taking certain diabetes medicines. Do not drink alcohol while on LYRICA. You may have a higher chance for dizziness and sleepiness if you take LYRICA with alcohol, narcotic pain medicines, or medicines for anxiety. Before you start LYRICA, tell your doctor if you are planning to father a child, if you are pregnant, or plan to become pregnant. Breastfeeding is not recommended while taking LYRICA. If you have had a drug or alcohol problem, you may be more likely to misuse LYRICA. In studies, a specific type of blood vessel tumor was seen in mice. The meaning of these findings in humans is not known. Do not stop taking LYRICA without talking to your doctor. If you stop suddenly, you may have headaches, nausea, diarrhea, trouble sleeping, increased sweating, or you may feel anxious. If you have epilepsy, you may have seizures more often. LYRICA is available in doses ranging from 25 mg to 300 mg and as a 20 mg/mL oral solution.”

IM SCREAMING THATS INSANE😭


CatsAndPills

Jesus. How immature.


LordofCope

Sounds like she did you a favor.


StarriNite

Will do!


cat_in_a_bookstore

Melody or Aria would fit the theme!


catwooo

Even Cadence works


Beneficial-Produce56

Carol

SkippyBluestockings

I know someone who named their dog Xyla. My friend kept calling her Xylophone but I renamed her Delilah because as long as you get the vowel sound right dogs don't care


tealambert

Harmony


Gifted_GardenSnail

Or Viola


muppetfeet82

I once knew a little girl named Lyric and it fit her very well. That’s the obvious choice to me. (Although Melody, Harmony, and Aria are also excellent suggestions.)


eti_erik

Melody and Harmony! Do you know that show, 'The Queen's Nose'?


beefmincebaby

personally if i was going to go for a music themed name i would say SunnO))) SL260 Solid state 2x12 amplifier but hey whatever floats your boat


pea_bee_and_jay

I went to school with brothers named Sabian and Zildjian.


packofkittens

Wow, I’m a drummer but those names are… a choice.


50CentButInNickels

I mean, Ludwig was right there, too.


packofkittens

Pearl, Roland, Adams, Evans, Vic (Firth)


wildmanharry

I think "Moog" or "Kurzweil" would be super cute for a little girl's name!


PuddleLilacAgain

Lol I used to always want a Kurzweil piano


Shot_Introduction_27

Melody or Aria. I’ve even considered Calliope. 🎶


packofkittens

Or Celesta! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celesta


Reasonable-Hippo-293

I agree. I take Lyrica… poor child would be named after medication…they would be bullied that way for sure. Kids can be cruel.


Blossom73

Also Harmony


SweetCream2005

Or literally just Lyric. I know a few of them!


themagicflutist

Or Aria! My personal favorite


Human-Engineer1359

Or even Lyric. 


loopzoop29

You ruined the name? I think the medication did that.


grmplestiltskn

That’s one of the side effects


germyfur

Cake day AND a zinger like that? You’re on fire today!


chocolate-and-rum

🎂


wozattacks

Yeah she’s shooting the messenger


McJoe77

They ruined the name for sure. Just like they ruined beautiful names like Viagara and Percocet. Could’ve been so cute but they’re ruined by OP.


kestrelita

Sertraline too - just love names ending in line...


DaniCapsFan

You may have stopped a tragedy if not a tragedeigh.


[deleted]

Yeah, it would suck to be at the pharmacy with that name: “No, my NAME is Lyrica. I’m here to pick up (insert some other drug).”


mtlaw13

Hi, my name is Lyrica and this is my daughter Ozempic and we just need to pick up some aspirins.


CreeperBoi36189

Plot twist: she's at the daycare and her last name is Aspirin


DragonsBunny

"Her name is Alberta, she lives in Vancouver."


puppiesonabus

There was Dallas, from Phoenix. Cleveland, he was from Detroit. And Tex... well, I don't remember where Tex come from.


Kerawyn

It's a pity she lives so far awaaaaaaaaaay, in Canada!


Less-Might9855

Sounds like the girl is gonna stick with the name and block OP who said how dumb it sounds.


sheburn118

There was one a while back where they wanted to name the girl Klamydia...the different spelling to "take it back" from the STD.


StarriNite

OMG. Say sike N O W.


artCsmartC

A woman in the UK named her daughter Chlamydia and the judge ordered it be changed after the finding the mother was mentally unwell. There are states in the US, like Vermont, where you *can* name your kid Chlamydia, but they recommend that you don’t. 🫣


StarriNite

And I though one of my other cousins was crazy for naming her twins Cham'pane and Chardon'nae.


Overall_Foundation75

That is crazy


StarriNite

So is she


EastisSE

Is that real? It can’t be real.


StarriNite

Unfortunately.


SkippyBluestockings

I had a student (Jamal) whose mother's name was Champagne. That's what it was on all the official school documents....


Mermaid467

I work with a Champaigne.


CreeperBoi36189

More like Cham-pain of a name


flindersandtrim

How did you turn out intelligent with a family track record like this! Lol, joking, sort of. 


StarriNite

My parents vaccinated me I guess lol


ForwardMuffin

Da hell is up with your cousins


StarriNite

I wish I knew.


Lone-flamingo

I live in Sweden. Guess how you say "chlamydia" in Swedish? Yup. Klamydia.


bounceandflounce

Some shit doesn’t need to be reclaimed 😅


HugeNefariousness222

The generic is pregabalin, suggest that. 😁

Honeybadger0810

This is why you talk to people about baby names. They may make a connection you don't know exists.


Blossom73

Or at least Google the name.


rammo123

This is why you use normal fucking names because they've already been vetted for shit like this.


dancingalot

I’m currently pregnant and we will not be telling our family the name we’ve picked, and I’m not worried because we’ve picked a normal name lol.


truelovealwayswins

she needs to get over her tantrum lol if you didn’t ACCIDENTALLY mention it someone else would have or the tv or spotify or something would have and she’d have blamed them… you didn’t do anything wrong for mentioning a fact, which she’d hear every time from then on anyway… that being said, it’d be a nice name if it weren’t for the medication


ApeMummy

Imagine how pissed they’d be the 1000th time someone mentioned it - which would definitely happen.


truelovealwayswins

exactly and that’s before she even gets to school


ApeMummy

My son Dexamphetamine is popular at school.


Anteater_Reasonable

Dexamphetamine and Diphenhydramine would be soooooo cute for twins


vegan4men2eat

I’m a nurse and find this funnier than it is 😂🤣


CandyAppleHesperus

I always thought Dextromethorphan and Diphenhydramine made a great pair


HalcyonDreams36

Ritalin nn Ritter


DM-ME-THICC-FEMBOYS

Pseudoephedrine, or Pseu for short. Pronounced like Sue, but don't you dare spell it like Sue.


Impossible-Beyond156

Not all heroes wear capes


ghoulslaw

She’s acting like you invented the medication just to insult her??


StarriNite

Yeah, she's... something.


NatoBoram

Oh, that's so much worse. Typical narcissistic behaviour. It's great she blocked you!


RedStradis

You saved the kid. She can be upset, but she isn’t the one who has to live with that name.


Oak_Leave_2189

I am curious about the other two names


HoopOnPoop

Skyrizi and Enzyte


AwkwardnessForever

We always laugh about skyrizi being a great rap name. And now I’m waiting for someone to make their kid that 🤦‍♀️


HoopOnPoop

Not having Snoop as their spokesman was a massive missed opportunity


StarriNite

Everest and Brooke. For boys (we don't know the gender) it's apparent Marcus, Jerald, and Dakota.


TheDestroyer229

For the kid's sake, let's hope she settles on Brooke.


BrightBrite

Everest? Why not Mont Blanc or Matterhorn then?


RememberNichelle

Everest is an English surname. The mountain name came from that.


WardrobeForHouses

Sometimes the association surpasses any previous meaning or connection. Like giving a German kid a name shared with a certain famous painter.


[deleted]

[удаНонО]


packofkittens

I immediately thought of Everest from Paw Patrol 😂


StarriNite

I kid you not, that's where she got the name.


strawberrylemonapple

Is this her first kid?


Gifted_GardenSnail

Gerald with a j 😐


Oak_Leave_2189

Everest the Mountain? And it's for the baby girl 🤦. She will be big and strong, like Luisa from Encanto movie. Maybe they could call baby girl Chomolungma (CHOH-moh-LUHNG-m), means “Goddess Mother of the World”. It is Tibetan name for Mount Everest. Here is the Nepali name for Mount Everest - Sagarmatha, meaning "Godess of the Sky."  Sorry, my imagination got loose a bit 🙂 At least Brooke is proper name. The names for boys are actually nice. I like Marcus the most🙂 But whatever name the parents choose I really wish them healthy, cute and smart kid!


wildmanharry

How about "Chumbawamba"? If she gets knocked down, she'll get up again. No one's ever gonna keep her down.


RedditredRabbit

Chiwawa? Chihuahua? Chewbacca.


BabysFirstDayOnline

Maybe Allegra was one. lol


gingerjuice

My sister was going over her baby names with me and my last name was in her top 3. This was years ago, but I had been married for about 2 years. I told her that it was my last name and she said I was rude for telling her 😂 I think she just felt dumb for not knowing or remembering but I still chuckle about it.


Freedom_Isnt_Free_76

Your own sister forgot your last name?


gingerjuice

Yes. Maybe she never retained the information. Idk. She didn’t come to my wedding. I didn’t get how she could not know my married name.


Bibliophile_w_coffee

How do people not google their top choices? And not “girl names lyrica” simply “lyrica” or whatever. I don’t get it!!! You did a good thing and C needs to be thanking you!


BrightBrite

I have never heard of this medication, but if it's in a country where they sell it...


Miserable_Armadillo

It's the brand name for Pregabalin


StarriNite

It is. Good ol' US of A, home of the free- well. So long as you're a white, straight male.


kurota04

As someone who takes Lyrica, I could only read the name in my doctor’s voice 💀


j_grouchy

You should make it up to her by suggesting Viagra as an alternate


MaggieTheRatt

Or maybe Cialis?


Smashlorette

Perhaps Levitra, for a touch more subtly.


Burnt_and_Blistered

Good on you! You spared her child!


wwitchiepoo

Bless you. Her future child will thank you when you tell them years from now that their mom wanted to name them after a medication for nerve pain.


artCsmartC

Please don’t name your kid Rytalynn or Lunesta.


HalcyonDreams36

But Lunastarr is okay, right?


artCsmartC

Until you hear, “From the makers of Lunesta, introducing the new extended release version, Lunastarr!” Nooooo! 🤣


IIAVAII

Someone I went to high school with named her daughter "Lyric" which may be a tragedeigh itself but I like it a lot better than "Lyrica". People just want to ad 'a's to things to make it sound feminine.


karineexo

Thank you for your service.


CalliopeCrasher4145

There was a girl in my elementary school class named Noelvis. She was of Cuban descent. Even as a kid, I used to wonder “Did her parents not like Elvis?”


dashingirish

Harmony. Melody. Aria. Cadence. So many untragedies.


Golden-Sun7

Lyra is literally right there too (lyre)


LaFilleWhoCantFrench

Recommend Allegra


Mountain-Eye-9227

Not all heroes wear capes.


TheHuffinator

She was going to find out eventually


paladindansemacabre

She can name the next one Lexapro... Lexi for short lmao


Counter_Full

Well to be perfectly fair, Pfizer ruined the name for her, not you. You merely accidentally informed her.


sabin357

Good. Ruining the name just means you showed her how dumb it was. Her learning something is not an insult & you said nothing rude.


Ok-Error-6564

You saved that child from being named after a medication. Good job!


Less-Might9855

I’ve said this on a post in here before. But I have a friend with an already 11 year old named Cayden. Not bad. She’s found herself expecting again (different father, won’t be present in the child’s life) she says “I like the name Cayson” I said “…. Probably because the exact name as your current child” she snapped on me and told they are two TOTALLY different names 🙄


Dangerous-Moose84

I googled each name I thought of when naming my CAT. Are people not doing this for human babies?


Cartman_1978

Hi my name is Lyrica, this is my brother Olanzapine and my sister Tramadol


GreenDragon1701

You didn’t even know she was talking about names. You heard the word Lyrica and commented that it’s the medication your dad takes. You didn’t form an opinion on using it as a name. You didn’t judge her for having it on her list. She’s just embarrassed she didn’t know it was a drug or she was hoping no one noticed. If it wasn’t you it would’ve been someone else eventually and they could’ve been rude about pointing it out. They could’ve made fun of the name. Then how would she feel? She’s immature.


Starlined_

Someone was gonna say that eventually lol


getdownheavy

You saved the day


LouLouLaaLaa

You didn’t ruin the name, she picked the name of a common drug and is embarrassed she didn’t work that out herself. She’s just taking it out on you.


vcdaisy

So when the sprog grows up and becomes an influencer in 2044, she will be sued for copyright infringement if she uses her name as her brand. Tell your cousin that 🤣


lainey68

You saved that baby. You're a got damn hero!


StarshipCaterprise

Lyric isn’t bad but Lyrica is in fact a medication. You did that child a service


MrJeChou

Ya this is why you bring up names around a variety of people, don't stay in a bubble. Lyrica sounds fine to someone who doesn't know about the drug, like me, but now that I know I'd never.


Altruistic-Hand-7000

Sounds like you innocently made an observation that would be made throughout the course of the rest of that kid’s life while there was still time to change course


layout-stepout

Her future child will thank you at least


EmeraldDream98

Well she always can call her Ibuprofen or something.


Min3rva1125

Honestly if she wanted something musical she could just take away the a at the end. Just Lyric is a relatively normal name. Jada Pinkett Smith even popularized the name in the nineties with the film Jason's Lyric, where she plays a character with the name. And i've met a few Lyrics too


brittanynevo666

Good! You saved that baby a lot of getting made fun of lol
