When you’re thinking of baby names, it can be hard not to consider the ways people will make fun of them. It seems like every name has the potential for being twisted into something that might torment your child for years to come.

Twitter user Sydney Battle, who has heard “almost every ‘battle’ and ‘australia’ pun or play-on-words there is” started a thread where folks can share the “lamest joke” people make about their names.

I mean, there’s no doubt people are creative.
