PICKING the perfect name for your kids is easier said than done, especially if you want something unique.
But this swimming teacher was stunned when she encountered four kids with some truly strange names all on the same day.
The teacher confessed her and the rest of the staff even gave most of them nicknames because they're just that bad.
Posting on Facebook she explained: "I work in a swim school for kids. These were some of the names of kids I taught today."
Starting off strong, the teacher revealed the first kid was called Brexlynne, followed by Rhoadie, Milaane and Mayce, "like pepper spray mace," she explained.
But it was the last name fellow Facebook users were the most shocked by.

The poor kid was called Kneeleigh, with a silent 'N', "pronounced like keeleigh," the teacher said.
"Kneeleigh's parents need to go straight to jail. That is pronounced Neeley and you can't convince me it's not," one user commented in disbelief.
A second agreed: "Kneeleigh, with a silent N is the stupidest thing on this page dedicated to stupid."
"No one is going to say it as Keeleigh," another wrote.

"Milaanne is the only good one here IF it’s pronounced as Mila Anne and not Milan, in which case, it should have just been spelled Milan," someone else mused.
Someone else commented: "Breathtakingly stupid! Why do they do that?"
"And the parents get mad whenever their kid moves up and the new teacher doesn’t know how to pronounce their names," another fumed.
But not everyone hated the names, and one user even shared one of them, albeit with a different spelling, they wrote: "My name is Mace like the pepper spray too!"
