I’m a kindergarten teacher in rural Missouri – the strangest kid names I’ve seen at my school, including a ‘hamster’ one
OFTENTIMES the people we encounter have names connected to their cultural background or family, and some can be common and others are more obscure.
A kindergarten teacher in rural Missouri listed the strangest kid names she’s come across at her school, including one that sounds like it would be for a hamster.
Depending on where you’re from, there are names you’ll hear more than others.
Reddit user @whaIeshark posted a list of students with names she’d never thought she’d hear in rural Missouri.
Her caption reads: “Some kindergarten names at the school I work at. There were many more but these were the ones that caught my eye.”
While a few names were more obscure, other users thought one sounded like a pet’s name.

The first name this teacher lists is Abella.
Although Bella is a familiar name, Abella is unique and unheard of.
“Abella makes me think of a disease for some reason,” one Reddit user wrote.
The next name, Citrus, users thought sounded like it was the name of a pet hamster.

“I’m sorry, but Citrus?” one person questioned, while another added: “It’s cute! For, like, a hamster lol.”
People didn’t find Mackenly to be notable, but one user was appalled by the name Navee.
They wrote: “I think Navee annoys me the most. I know Navy is a trending name, one that I roll my eyes at a bit, but a unique spelling of it too? Ugh.”
And according to Reddit users, Raidyn was no better.
