BitterEpiphany's Fanon Names

HPFF boasts what is, quite possibly, the largest and most complete list of Mary Sue names in our behind-the-scenes hidey-hole. Today, I thought I would share a few of the "Character Name Hall of Shame" entries I have made over the years. If I have learned one thing about the Wizarding World from the queue it would be that parents of Original Characters are mean.
  • Maxi (I read this whole story thinking of feminine hygiene products...)
  • Jayden
  • M&M (no, I'm not kidding)
  • Sin (has subtlety gone the way of political ethics?)
  • Mephesto
  • Dandelion (because if being named after a flower wasn't enough, you had to make it a weed)
Now, this is just my list. The actual thread is 13 pages long (and some of the posts contain more than one name) so keep your eyes peeled for additions from other staffers.

Oddly enough, I actually know a "Sin". He's a four year old little kid whose parents saw fit to name him "Sincere". I feel (and will probably forever) for the poor thing.
 
Oh jeez, these made me laugh, but seriously want to cringe. It is the era of crazy, wacky names though. The Mary's, Jane's, and Elizabeth's just don't seem to exist anymore.
