I just finished reading Breaking Dawn, the fourth book in the Twilight saga, and one of the characters in this book has quite possibly one of the most hideous names I've ever heard.

The main couple, Edward and Bella, have a daughter, whom they name Renesmee (pronounced ruh-NEZ-may). I wish I were joking. Bella combined her mother's name, Renée, with Edward's mother's name, Esme, and came up with... that. The child's middle name is better -- it's Carlie, a combination of Bella's father's name, Charlie, and Edward's father's name, Carlisle. So, the poor thing's full name is Renesmee Carlie Cullen. Really, I was quite disappointed in Stephenie Meyer, because, previously, her main characters all had such lovely names:

Carlisle
Edward Anthony
Emmett
Esme Anne
Isabella Marie [Bella]
Jacob
Jasper
Mary Alice [Alice]
Rosalie Lillian

I wish I knew what happened to her naming taste.
