Iyzabel?!?!?!?!?

[snoglobel.livejournal.com]

Yea, there were some crazy ones this month.

My favorites are:
Iyzabel
Lamari Bra'janique and Lamar Bry'Shon (twins)
Dokotoa
and Shawnbrielle Elegence Imunique Tayvion

Maybe it's frustration carrying over from work today, but today's list was making me rage a bit. Why teach spelling anymore when names never follow patterns (or common sense)?

Shawnbrielle Elegence Imunique Tayvion? Really?? I had a student (a boy) named Tavion a few years ago.

i'm not convinced there's a lot of spelling being taught. i know for a while here in new york teachers were supposed to encourage "invented spelling". screwed my middle schoolers in the end but def. explains some of the names we see these days.

[snoglobel.livejournal.com]

I grew up in CT in the 80's - 90's and was taught "sound it out" spelling. This was fine for most words, but screwed up others. For example (and I am ashamed to say this but it's true) I spelled "Great" as "Grate" on a poster in class one day in 5th grade, and didn't know how to spell "article" (I spelled it "artical") until I was a sophomore in high school...

Spelling was DEFINITELY NOT taught well. And I didn't have a single grammar class until high school which was a private Catholic school.

I guess it still hasn't gotten much better.

[ringsandcoffee.livejournal.com]

Now that I am a teacher, I find (and this has been 4th through 8th grade, and mainly second language learners) that the kids either know how to spell, or they don't even come remotely close on tests. Like, what they wrote is nothing close to any word on the list.

The concept of memorizing spelling words seems lost these days.

I spent a lot of time repeating, "What?!"

Any time you feel the need to name your child Imunique....you are not guaranteeing that s/he will in fact be unique...quirky, maybe. Embarrassed by their parents, yes.

And Lamar and Lamari. Really? You couldn't find even matchier names?

Every time you post these I die a little bit inside when I realize that these are potential classmates of my daughter. How will I ever keep a straight face if my daughter comes home and introduces little Jo'nalys.

Upstate NY has been really disappointing me lately.

[snoglobel.livejournal.com]

Haha, I'm sorry.

Where upstate are you from? (we may have already done this, but my memory for LJ people is pretty bad...)

These are all from the Rochester area hospitals.

[cairtirnin.livejournal.com]

I'm from Le Roy, so I guess I'm just going to have to practice keeping a straight face.
