There's nothing funny about the trend of deliberately misspelling (or concocting) baby names. These are pathetically uneducated attempts to make our offspring "unique" but it only makes them confusing and defensive and, eventually, embarassed. As a school teacher, I've come across such idiocies as "Kyla" (whatever the hell that means); "Shreall" (pronounced "Shirelle"); and "Savahannah" (pronounced "Savannah"). Other insults include Jazmyn, Antawn, Chone ("Sean"), and, God help us, "Jhon". Which is worse: deliberate stupidity, accidental stupidity, or accidental stupidity that just thinks it's being deliberately stupid?
And speaking of stupid, Bee Movie. Don't waste your kid's time.
