I went to school with a girl named Skylar Rain Storm. She lived under the impression that she was just as important as the weather.

I knew a girl named Misty Storm [Her last name]

I went to school with a stormy knight 💀💀

Once saw a weather girl who called herself “Stormy Clearweather”. Also had a nephew who named his son River…would’ve been cool if their last name wasn’t Rushing.

Yeah that was Barbara Jean's weather girl name on Reba.

Thought someone would catch that!

I knew a girl named Blu Sky [last name]

If they assume you’re a troll, that is very much an answer.

OP people think you’re trolling because this isn’t a name that you give to a human who will one day be an adult who has to introduce themselves as this at job interviews, this is a name you give to a cat or a dog. If you’re really in love with the name use it as a middle.

You know what, a few people genuinely do give their kids these names. I know a Babe Olympia previous Jewel (the entire name first middles and last) I also know a Sunshine Holiday (she’s in her 50s and teaches) And a Bonnie Day - under 30 I agree that this name is bad. As are the other I listed. But some people legit do make this choice. I almost called my kid something really close to “Winnie the Pooh” (Wynona Pugh) accidentally because of baby brain but realised in time and scrapped it. Oh I also know a Melissa winters who goes by misty and honestly sounds like a porn name

Wynona Pugh! 🤣

It sounds like a cartoon character's name, cute but a little absurd.

or a Bond Girl

Way too much

It’s bordering on a stripper name. Pick something else.

Too much. It would be like naming a kid Olive Green or Granite Stone.

I had a boss named Kelly Green and I feel like it had to be intentional by her parents.

If I were introduced to Skye Cloud, I, too, would think the parents intended to make her life difficult.

Or were appropriating Native Americans.

True. I wouldn’t think twice about a Native American having a name associated with the sky, but it would be very awkward to call someone who isn’t that name.

Dyk Skye (with an e) is an island in Scotland. We also have Islay (pronounced Isla), Lewis, and Harris, along with many others. Want a baby name that fits the trendy theme without being popular? Pick a different island! Plenty to go around :D

I didn’t know Kelly Green was a thing? Theresa Green or Forrest Green or Britishracing Green I could see the issue with however

Kelly green is a bright yellow green color. Dying at the idea of a poor kid named Britishracing Green though.

Golf Green

Is that the same as Master's Jacket Green?

I'm sure it was.

I have a cousin (x removed) named Kelly Green, and it totally was. (One of her uncles went by Red his whole life, long before the Canadian fictional character.)

I knew an Ivy Green 🙃

I know a girl named Jasmine Rice

Went to church with Rocky Stone. 

My mom knew a kid named Lawn Green in grade school (I'm not sure of the spelling but that's the way it was pronounced), also a Rusty Nail

It would be wild of the name was Lauren and the kid just had a speech impediment and everyone just went with that. "Oh your names Lawn? Well alrighty."

> Rusty Nail Reminds me of [this beauty](https://dev.sabr.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/KuntzRusty.jpg)

It was probably Lon, as in Loni, pronounced just like lawn

To be fair, Granite Stone sounds like he'd be a badass BJJ private eye in the '80s.

I really like Olive Green though loll

Ordinarily I'm a huge Skylar/Sky fan but this is wrong. It's comical, really.

I’d go one further and make the middle name ALSO related to weather. Skye Storm Cloud, Skye Rainbow Cloud, Skylar Skylark Cloud, Skylar Cumulus Cloud… the possibilities are endless

Careful it’s an untagged unjerk post, you might give them ideas 🥲

Lmao whoopsie

Yeah you have pretty much doomed all the children in that family. Go sit in the corner and think about what you have done.

I’d be THRILLED honestly if I was Skyler Skylark

Rhain (can't have regular Rain) is available, as is Storm, Thunder, and Cirrus (Ciri for a nn).

It actually still took me extra convincing that you aren’t an elaborate troll. That’s how bad this name is lol With a last name like Cloud, the first name needs to have as little to do with weather as possible. Skye and Skylar are both not good with that surname

If this is a real post shouldn't it be tagged r/unjerk?

Idk i dont use reddit often

Yeah unfortunately your surname just doesn’t allow for Sky, same as the surname McDonald wouldn’t allow for Ronald. There are billions of nice names out there, discard Sky and move on.

The definition of "don't" you gave? My family DID. They have a Ronald and Donald with that surname.

😬

Ehm…. There are hundreds of Ronnie MacDonalds wandering Scotland and have been for centuries. 

Let’s avoid Colleen Hoover names please

Yeah my first thought was it's bad romance book or soap opera name. Very cringe.

Lily Blossom Bloom 😔

Do you REALLY want the first thing that people think when they're introduced to your daughter to be "Oh, that poor child 😬"? Because about 85% of people are going to think that. They won't say it, but they WILL be thinking it. Especially if you go with Sky or Skye. They're all great names, but unfortunately the surname ruins those options for you. You can always use Skylar as the middle name. Give her a non-weather-pun first name, and then when she's old enough she can decide if she wants to go by her first or middle name.

This is so bad that people thought it was a shitpost. Nothing celestial, sky related, or weather themed. This reads like the people who name their kids something stupid because they think it'll be funny (Tu Morrow, Chandra Lear).

ANNNNND NOW, COMING TO THE STAAAAGE…..!

Nimbus, Rain, altocumulus lenticularis....Stormy 😬 honestly OP, I'd go for a traditional name, not one that has anything to do with clouds/weather. Like imagine your child many years from now becoming a doctor....Doctor Skye Cloud, does that sound like a professional name? No

Stop

It’s giving My Little Pony name. Sorry

I do data entry and someone name was (Heaven Le Angel)

It's one of those things that she would either love or hate

What about the name Skype and then you could go over to the trajedeigh sub

I would assume you were major final fantasy fans and squint my eyes at you for naming your kid after your hobbies

I think it’s too much

Being completely and bluntly honest here: that is a horrible name for a human child. For a pet it’s fine. But eventually the baby will be an adult woman. How do you think the rest of society will react to a name as absurd as “Sky Cloud”? Let alone her peers at school. I once knew a girl named “Winter Summer” and she was so viciously bullied and teased that she had to leave school and move. That is what will happen to your child. It doesn’t matter if “unique” or wacky names are the trend now. Names should be timeless not uncommon or unique just for the sake of it. If I met someone with the name “sky cloud” I would feel bad for them for having parents that gave them that name at birth without thinking of the potential ramifications it would have on their adult life and career.

Skylar would be fine. Skye and Sky are too much. I’d think that the parents are pretentious and think their kid is the center of the universe. It’s very fictional protagonist from a children’s book, and those names are not my taste.

Skylar Cloud still sounds silly, but in a way that it sounds like a character from a children's novel. Not nearly as absurd as Sky Cloud (Skye Cloud just looks bad overall). Like if I had somehow done this on accident once I realized I would never call the kid Sky again.

Tbh I kind of like it… but it is a bit much. Why not have Sky as a middle name, so you can have the “gotcha” when her whole name is pronounced without it being too in your face? Otherwise, Skylar Cloud is also not too obvious.

Sounds a bit much, yes. What about Skye as a middle name?

Sounds stripper- hobo ish.

It's not good. Sorry, but all together it sounds like y'all were trying to be cute/get a laugh out of naming your kid.

It’s giving stripper

I would assume the parent were want to be hippie. For me, any version of Sky Cloud is a NO GO!!!

Lmao why not go all the way with Sunny Skye Cloud

This is trajique. If you really love Skylar, use it as a middle name and give the child a solid non-nature name for their first name. 

Skylar could work but def not Sky

Yeah, it’s bad. I went to school with a Poppy Fields and I winced every time I remembered her surname lol. Skye Cloud is the same

It's like a name from phoenix wright.

They might feel forced into a career as a weather woman...

the lack of answer in this persons part makes me feel like they’re still going to name their child this.

Sounds like SkyClad which means naked for witchcraft purposes lol

I actually know two Skye MacLeods irl. 

lol

I went to high school with a guy named Stormy Weathers.

I know a woman who was named Skyr Blue, she married a guy who had the last name Byrd

The " find our baby's name in a cemetery lady has chosen "Salem'" for their baby girl. Said middle name would likely be "Harbour". EVERYONE please recognize when you are naming your child a literal place or object!!

I’d think it was quirky and maybe the parents were hippies, but I don’t think it’s a terrible name. I kind of like it. Especially if the kid was a flower child.

I love the name!

Is beautiful, go with it

Sooo weird seeing my middle name in here when I usually never see its spelling lmao

What about Claude Cloud instead?

I think you could either use it with or without a middle name I really think it's a pretty name

It's unfortunate and may cause resentment later in life. Storm Cloud however.....

Stormi Cloud would work better to me.

Rainn Cloud sounds even better!

My nephew's first name is Silvercloud

This is a perfectly normal name to me. If you like it I would use it. Generally people only call someone by their first or their surname not both all the time. So she might get some giggles at roll call, but other than that she will by Skye. A perfectly normal name.

Thank you i really love it but everyone will hate it😭 We will probably do skylar it sound the normal

please consider that this baby will one day be an adult who has to get a job and exist in society.

Don’t put too much stock in what the mob on here says. It’s not real life. :) Skylar is lovely too though.

No but Rayne would be cute like rain cloud
