I’m a bespoke cake maker & I’ve had many bad names iced onto my creations including one that sounded like a cheap fabric

Taking to Reddit, the anonymous person, from the US, penned: My partner is a cake decorator and sees a lot. This one has to be my favourite so far.”

She then shared a snap of a written request for a Spiderman-themed cake with light up eyes.

But it wasn’t the unique design which had people talking…it was the name of the lucky receiver.

Under the section which asked what they wanted iced on the cake, the person penned: “Happy 7th birthday Nylion.”

Unsurprisingly, many were quick to take to the comments section with their own amusing material-themed name suggestions.

“Is the mum’s name Polly-Esther?” wrote one.

A second commented: “Nylion, Cottyn and Lynn’n.”

A third quipped: “And the father’s name is Span Dex.”

Meanwhile, a fourth baffled social forum user asked: “So is it pronounced Nye-Lion or Nylon? Or, does the Y act as another sound like Nae-lee-on?”

Another added: “Who else thought Spiderman was the name?”
