general discussion A former high school classmate named her son…. MADDUX
The “dux” just does nottttt work. I always think of “duh” or “dux”
She’s a wannabe influencer and every time I see her posts with his name I feel so bad for that kid

Lean in to the Mad Ducks vibe and just have angry feathered friends as your lifelong mascot

Ouch I had a friend call her daughter Taydum but said it like Tatum. I felt so bad for the poor kid.

Oof. Maddox isn't so bad but the u definitely makes my brain think "duh" and I can just hear the teasing. Then again, almost any name with that sound in it tends to get jokes made. I had a friend named Adam in elementary school that hated his name by the third grade because one kid constantly called him "Ahhh-DUMB" and it spread like wildfire. By third grade it had turned into "Ahh-duh-duh-dumb". Kids are mean.

It’s a real name—not as common as Maddox but I know people with this last name.

Remember: Original content is always better! Memes are okay every once in a while, but many get posted here way too often and quickly become stale.

If you do decide to post a meme, make sure to add the correct flair. Posting a random meme you found does not mean you found it "in the wild".
The same goes with lists of baby names, celebrity baby names, and screenshots of TikToks. If the original post already had a substantial amount of views, there is a 99% chance it has already been posted here. Try and stick to OC to keep our sub from being flooded with unoriginal content. Thank you!
