A relative has decided if she has a girl, she will name it Wylan (pn: Why-lynn). This name comes from combining her two sons' names-Wyatt (1 yr) and Landon (3 yrs).

the only reason i even kind of don't mind this name is because it reminds me of wyland, and that man's a genius... but still, D:

What?! Why? D:
That idea is lame and horrible as is, but it's going to suck -extra hard- if it turns out that the kids can't stand each other.

omg... thankfully my parents were nice enough to spare me... I could have been named Edree... or something equally as bad like Wylan... A least I only have one male sibling older than I.

Let's hope she never has a girl. :\

That's got to be the worst idea ever. Why would someone do that? It's like, we love your brothers so much we're going to name you after them, and you'll never have the chance but to live in the shadow of your siblings cause they are awesome and you are some sort of after thought.

It's like, we're naming you after the people we also named. Weird.

Oh dear. That's kind of a terrible idea. D: My parents should have named my sister after her two older brothers. She could have been Aldan! Or Brallan!

Seriously, I really don't get the logic here. It'd be one thing if those were, idk, her grandfathers (though I still think Wylon is a horrid name, particularly for a girl), but her brothers? WTF?

EWWWW! Not only is that a terrible name, it's also a terrible idea! What the heck, the poor girl doesn't deserve a name of her own? I cannot imagine why anyone would name their daughter after their son(s). That's terrible, terrible, terrible. I PRAY someone can talk her out of this.

Never mind the fact that it's unfair to use that method to come up with the name; the name makes me think of Scott Weiland from Stone Temple Pilots. Honestly, Wylan sounds like it could be a legit name--but for a boy, not a girl! What is wrong with people? (no offense, I know she's your relative)

These people really loved the names they picked for the boys, obviously.

Why, indeed.

My first thought was that Wylan was a guy.

Second, that's just wrong. I hate mash-ups. Why can't the kid have her own name???

Third, those kids won't like her, or vice versa. Thanks, Mom, for jinxing.

I actually just thought of something. If she wants to combine the others' names, why not a real name like Wynne?

As if there aren't enough names in the universe, so she has to resort to reusing.

Facepalm.

Does her daughter not deserve her own name?

Then she's just terribly uncreative.
