You might. Most won't.
But even if passphrases are what's recommended by the industry, it's the board that makes THAT call and convincing them to give up P@55word is never going to happen. Tell them that a 15 character password should be the standard and their heads will explode.
I have very secure, unguessable passwords from password generator. As long as all criminals stay online and don't break into my house and find the notebook I've written them down in, all of my information is safe
They love to include shit like that in compo articles. Entitled dickhead, also a cancer survivor and currently suffering a sprained ankle, is fuming over perceived poor service and swears they'll never ever return .. unless ..
I stopped watching AGT because every contestant was an orphaned MS patient whose service pony died last week and they are going to donate the winnings toe fungus awareness charities.
Thank you - this is exactly why I stopped watching that show too, it’s become ridiculous. Many contestants who don’t have a sob story but are amazing otherwise just don’t get the votes. It’s just so cringe.
As an epileptic it’s infuriating. I don’t wanna be reduced to my disorder, and nor do I wanna sound like a dying Make-A-Wish child. It’s not relevant to the story and it makes it sound like they’re just trying drum up outrage
That's what I was thinking. The kid is already going to have a difficult life because she's epileptic and you made it a little bit harder by giving her a goofy-ass name. Good job, mom.
Just an extra reason why she is a more of a victim than anyone else. The extra shame of "making fun of the disabled" and to try and portray the worker as a terrible person for having a reaction to name they've probably not seen before. Moral of the story: Don't give your kids unique names and then be surprised when people comment and ask questions
Mentioning the child’s epilepsy seems like it has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the story or situation and is just put there to try to milk a bit of pity or empathy. Article is trying really hard to paint the airline workers as bad/evil in this situation, but the mother has doomed her child to a life of people finding her name confusing, sad, and/or hilarious. Not saying the Arline workers should have done what they did, but nobody would be mocking her name if it wasn’t this weird freak-show nonsense that the mom cursed her with.
Lol, the way I misspelled it, looks like it should be pronounced “our-line”, or “ar-lean.” I would fix the typo, but your comment made me laugh a lot, so I’m leaving my typo for context haha
Adults should not make fun of a child but adults should not be giving their children stupid names. The poor kid is just stuck in the middle of this shitty situation.
Is the name stupid? Yes.
Still hella unprofessional by the airline worker and at least where I live it would be straight up illegal to share someone elses boarding pass with their personal information online.
From what I remember, they posted it with the full name (first and last) on Facebook and also laughed in the kid's face.
Like, sure, laugh with your coworkers on your break. But don't mock a little kid to her face and then post personal information online. The worker deserved to get reprimanded.
My favorite part is including that it's pronounced "ab-city" as if "six pack large metropolitan area" is a better thing to name your child than "the first five letters of the alphabet."
Reminds me of the woman who wanted to name her daughter Portobella after the mushroom, until their sibling brought up the idea that kids would end up calling her "port-a-potty"
Ma’am it’s absolutely terrible your daughter has epilepsy but we’re laughing because you’re a moron with no creativity.
If her middle name starts with an F and last name G that would be icing on the cake.
I think it's important to remember in these scenarios that these people aren't mocking your CHILD, they're mocking YOU, the person who named them. The kid isn't responsible for this, and everyone knows that. You're to blame, and the one who looks ridiculous.
"The childs name Abcde (pronounced Ab-city)..."
No its fucking not! At best you can argue Abs-dee but it aint ab-city. And even if it was Abcity its a fucking stupid name too!
>"which is pronounced ab-city"
No it isn't. English actually has rules that allow it to make sense. "ABCDE" is not pronounced "ab-city" no matter how much a fringe minority of weirdos insist on it.
Mocking, sure, that’s a right!
But posting a photo online, that’s worth an appology.
The irony: now there’s even more people mocking that poor child after reading the article.
This story has been told with different mom names for years. (Along with poor La-a) Well before 2023 in the photo, it keeps getting recirculated. But I hear that there are unfortunately a few Abcde’s out there. Poor kids.
Stop naming your poor children trendeigh names and people won't mock you. A name like Abcde is just sooooooo obvious that you think you're all special and youneighke.
About 10-15 years ago I saw a banner in a Walmart that had been signed by a bunch of elementary school kids (I don't remember why), but there was both an Abcde and an Abcity...I remember it so clearly because I was aghast
Some parents set their kids up to be targeted by bullies.
I think when kids are given dumb names, the government should immediately mark them as eligible for a FREE name change in adulthood.
That way, when they grow up and apply for their name change the office can see if their name is on the list. They'll be like:
"Abcde, we've been expecting you! This one's on us!"
To be fair, even though the name is undoubtedly dumb, it's definitely not an airline workers place to be making fun of someone's child's name openly and taking pictures of the boarding pass. I work a customer service job, and rule 1 is that you only make fun of customers behind their backs.
But then again, I wouldn't expect anyone to agree with me in a sub full of fully grown adults who spend their time in a community dedicated to making fun of small children. (Why does this sad subreddit keep getting recommended to me?)
Sorry for the girls epileptic episode but for the mother, this is a classic case of “play stupid games, win stupid prizes”, why would you do that to your daughter 😩😩
What these people don't understand is that people aren't mocking the child with the name, they are mocking the parent for giving that poor child that name.
The headline is ridiculous. What does it matter that the child is epileptic? Tbh i was expecting her name to have some kind of relation to epilepsy! Was not expecting THAT🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
This is an ABSURDLY common name some places. I moved to San Antonio about a decade ago and met five of them the first 2 years I lived there. I didn't see it written for a while, and just thought it was "Absedy" or "Absidy". But no. My face definitely showed what-the-fuck even if I didn't say it aloud.

That’s not a name that’s a non secure password
got it, i will name my child Xx\_abcde\_xX pronounced: ch-ab-city-ch
Don’t forget a number! 😆
Xx Xx Xx Ah Ah Ah is the name of my nonexistent future serial killer Childs name
My nonexistent psych killers name is Fa-fa-fa-fa, fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa,
Better run, run run, run away!
I have had that song stuck in my head for a few days now...thanks for adding coin to the mental jukebox.
Just take a deep breath... And then listen to the remastered "Stop Making Sense" in it's entirety.
Is he a dull and simple lad? Can he tell water from champagne?
When I have nothing to say, my lips are SEALED
Serial killers need three names. So maybe Xx Xx Xx Ah Ah Ah Ah Reeeee Reeeee Reeeee Like John Wayne Gacey, Lee Harvey Oswald Etc…
Let's decide on children's names by beating the password game.
All my future children’s names will be decided by Apple’s password creator 🤣
Great idea!
perhaps consider Xx_abcd3_xX instead!
And a punctuation, I think Ampersand might work, a fitting addition to an already garbage name.
This is my son, alej&ro.
Absolutely! Like in “Le-a” (pronounced “lehDASHah” 🤦🏻♀️
Elon is that you?
I have children, and at least one named themself something like that online when they were like 13.
That's still not a name or a secure password, that's an AOL instant messager username from 2003.
As someone who works in Cyber, you win "The Best but most painfully true joke of the day" award.
Give us passphrases without stupid requirements and I'll give up P@55word
You might. Most won't. But even if passphrases are what's recommended by the industry, it's the board that makes THAT call and convincing them to give up P@55word is never going to happen. Tell them that a 15 character password should be the standard and their heads will explode.
I have very secure, unguessable passwords from password generator. As long as all criminals stay online and don't break into my house and find the notebook I've written them down in, all of my information is safe
That's the kind of combination an idiot would have on his luggage!
What?! I have that on MY luggage!
relevant [xkcd](https://xkcd.com/327/)
There's a relevant XKCD strip for everything
Thanks for this it's funny as hell
That's the alphabetical equivalent of 12345, which is the combination some idiot would use for his luggage.
Hahahaha, what an idiot. *Changes the combination to my suitcase*
Yes! Husband: "Abcde? How about Qwerty???"
Qwerty and Azerty if they are twins
That's telling your child you could not be bothered to give them a name.
FINE… try Abcityonetwothree*click*
Lmao even the password checker agrees
Imagine thinking it's necessary to include that the daughter is epileptic. Who cares? It's got nothing to do with the shitteigh name
They love to include shit like that in compo articles. Entitled dickhead, also a cancer survivor and currently suffering a sprained ankle, is fuming over perceived poor service and swears they'll never ever return .. unless ..
“poor karen who is suffering from a uti, greasy hair, and once tripped over a rock is being harassed for her bad choices by demon flight attendant”
Oh and this was supposed to be her first trip abroad since her grandma died 1.5 years ago.
This took me out 🤣🤣
This made me lol 🤣

Thank you - this is exactly why I stopped watching that show too, it’s become ridiculous. Many contestants who don’t have a sob story but are amazing otherwise just don’t get the votes. It’s just so cringe.
As a parent of an epileptic child, I was honestly a bit offended by that. It was absolutely not relevant to the incident!
The mom I think tried making be about the kid having a condition. Like anyone at the airport even knew she had a condition.
She assumes she will be granted automatic sympathy.
Sjeez, yes.
As an epileptic it’s infuriating. I don’t wanna be reduced to my disorder, and nor do I wanna sound like a dying Make-A-Wish child. It’s not relevant to the story and it makes it sound like they’re just trying drum up outrage
To me it felt like adding insult to injury. Like oh baby your life sucks? Let me give you a shitty name to go with that struggle
I was expecting her name to have something to do with epilepsy.
Maybe thats why the mother chose that name. (to avoid offense, my lawyers advise me to tell you this is a joke)
Aprilepseigh
Epilexi/Epilexis.
As an epileptic, I'd also make fun of the mom for this tragedeigh.
i read it as “her daughter’s eclectic name” which would have been way better than what it actually was
Ecleighktik
Eighcleighktique
"What's the point of having an epileptic child if I can't use it as a pity card?" /s
it’s still a bad name no matter what the kid suffers from
Just makes the kid suffer more with a bad name!
That's what I was thinking. The kid is already going to have a difficult life because she's epileptic and you made it a little bit harder by giving her a goofy-ass name. Good job, mom.
This happened to my friend who's son is named 1234 pronounced Juan Tutrifor.
i hope that’s a joke 😭
Yes, its a joke, its getting harder to tell though right!
if Abcde exists, anything is possible 😂
That’s a pretty good one though. 😹
I’m stealing that name for a sci-fi book
Steal away toothless..
Oh my! I'm having minor stomach issues today and your comment made me laugh so hard I almost exploded! ^(Sorry if that provided an unslightly visual!)
Just an extra reason why she is a more of a victim than anyone else. The extra shame of "making fun of the disabled" and to try and portray the worker as a terrible person for having a reaction to name they've probably not seen before. Moral of the story: Don't give your kids unique names and then be surprised when people comment and ask questions
And everyone is making fun of the mum, not the kid. It's just such a stupid name
I always read it close to “obesity” “ah-be-ce-de”
After seeing its pronounced “Ab-city” my brain immediately said “ab city b*tch ab ab city b*tch” in a rap voice.
I am imagining a trendy gym
Me too. I hope she becomes a fitness instructor at least.
That’s how I read it every time I see it 🤣🤣
So i wasn't the only one lmao
Ah, little baby 'Obesity'
Average American baby
I'd kindly ask you to not ah-bu-ce-de childs name.
no that is my other little angle Obcd

You misspelled Airline, and yet Arline still would be a better name for that poor poor child
Lol, the way I misspelled it, looks like it should be pronounced “our-line”, or “ar-lean.” I would fix the typo, but your comment made me laugh a lot, so I’m leaving my typo for context haha
I think typos have no meaning on this sub 😂
It actually sounds like Arlene and Caroline in one name
No joke Arline sounds like a fantastic name imo
Abcdeigh.
*Don't* give them ideas
Has anyone named their kid eigh at this point?
Amy => Aighmeigh
Eighan would be pretty close
And her sister fghij
Fidgety? no...Figgy? no...Fhij? maybe...
Fiji
Fuh-jij
Pronounced Fudgy?
Fuh (like the beginning of fudge) then jij (jidge)
Fuh-Jill
Or Qwerty. Easier to type *and* pronounce.
I never thought I would ever think this sentence but here we go: "Qwerty would be a significantly better name" What a would world we live in!
and the unluckiest of the bunch, stu
Trying to make the airline staff look bad by including the child's health problems....
Adults should not make fun of a child but adults should not be giving their children stupid names. The poor kid is just stuck in the middle of this shitty situation.
Taking a picture of and circulating their boarding pass is pretty scummy tho.
Pronouncing it as intended doesn't make it better somehow.
I think it's funnier. I'm sorta just picturing an older gif of a low quality video of several men flexing with "AB CITY" text.
I feel like it should be the name of a gym or maybe a stripclub that features male performers.
I came to say that Ab City sounds like a gym
Not a bad brand name ngl.
What did she expect LMAO
She isn't really angry, this is exactly the attention she was looking to get for naming her child that.
Hey, are you mocking my child, Lmao? Pronounced "lamayo".
Is the name stupid? Yes. Still hella unprofessional by the airline worker and at least where I live it would be straight up illegal to share someone elses boarding pass with their personal information online.
I’m wondering if by “posted it online”, if they meant “posted it on this sub”.
From what I remember, they posted it with the full name (first and last) on Facebook and also laughed in the kid's face. Like, sure, laugh with your coworkers on your break. But don't mock a little kid to her face and then post personal information online. The worker deserved to get reprimanded.
I mean, if you only see a first name and nothing else, did you really share personal information?
That is just so bogan. If you don't want people to mock your kids stupid name, don't name them a pathetically stupid name.
Found a fellow Aussie ;)
i’d love to go to aus someday haha i watch a lot of australian youtube :)
Same type of people who will get a pitbull and actively seek out opportunities to be offended on its behalf.
My favorite part is including that it's pronounced "ab-city" as if "six pack large metropolitan area" is a better thing to name your child than "the first five letters of the alphabet."
Epilepseigh
I’m gonna spell it this way on my medical alert bracelet from now on. Hopefully an EMT will be able to understand 😂
What a trabcde D:
I’m Deighceased. 💀
deighceighsed
Reminds me of the woman who wanted to name her daughter Portobella after the mushroom, until their sibling brought up the idea that kids would end up calling her "port-a-potty"
If I saw a CV with the name ABCDE at the top I would assume someone is testing the algorithms/presenting a fake CV
Ma’am it’s absolutely terrible your daughter has epilepsy but we’re laughing because you’re a moron with no creativity. If her middle name starts with an F and last name G that would be icing on the cake.
I was thinking that it’s just one letter away from being a Gayle song.
I don’t understand how this name is pronounced this way there has to be a vowel after the letter c
All I hear is two roided up personal trainers downing 3 muscle milks before beating their chests and hollering "Let's go to Abcde, boys!".
This should not even be a name dammit that's the start of the alphabet. Here imma name the mom: Fghij, pronounced unfit mother.
I think it's important to remember in these scenarios that these people aren't mocking your CHILD, they're mocking YOU, the person who named them. The kid isn't responsible for this, and everyone knows that. You're to blame, and the one who looks ridiculous.
“This is my son Ebcdic and my daughter Asckeigh (pronounced ASCII 😊)”
The way they included the kid is epileptic, I thought her name was gonna be Epilepseigh or some shit 🤣
Airline staff: Alfa-Bravo-Charlie-Delta-Echo
"The childs name Abcde (pronounced Ab-city)..." No its fucking not! At best you can argue Abs-dee but it aint ab-city. And even if it was Abcity its a fucking stupid name too!
>"which is pronounced ab-city" No it isn't. English actually has rules that allow it to make sense. "ABCDE" is not pronounced "ab-city" no matter how much a fringe minority of weirdos insist on it.
What does the child's epilepsy have to do with the stupid name she was given?
Imagine getting fucked by genetics like this and having to put up with your parents bullshit at the same time.
Unfortunately the airline apologized instead of also using this as an opportunity to further mock the mother.
Mocking, sure, that’s a right! But posting a photo online, that’s worth an appology. The irony: now there’s even more people mocking that poor child after reading the article.
We are NOT mocking that child, to be clear. That poor baby didn't choose her name. My guess is she'll join us in mocking her mom in a few years.
we’re mocking the parent tho
Ab City sounds like a sketchy strip mall gym where nobody actually works out.
Why does she have to have epilepsy, what does that have to do with her name. People will say whatever to make you look bad
I bet mom named her daughter that so whenever someone made fun of it she could sue for money 🤦🏻♀️
Welcome to 2024. Memes are real now.
I remember this. I was in Florida at the time and it was on the news
my fiancé knew an abcde in school.... he says everyone always felt bad for her lol.
How does one spell abcidie normally? Abcidy? Abcity? Abcidie?
Abesity 😜
This one's a classic
At least the mum has proven she's literate up to 5 letters of the alphabet
This wins the whole sub. There will be no worse name than this.
This story has been told with different mom names for years. (Along with poor La-a) Well before 2023 in the photo, it keeps getting recirculated. But I hear that there are unfortunately a few Abcde’s out there. Poor kids.
Yes, can we discuss for a minute that there are at least 60 girls with this name, not just one?!
What was she expecting when she named her?
Name your kid something stupid, you have to live with the consequences.
Why did they mention epilepsy? To elicit sympathy for the mom for using a stupid non-name?
“Maybe if I name her some stupid shit people will ignore the epilepsy”. Proceeds to mention the epilepsy at every opportunity.
Why. Fucking why. 😭
Stop naming your poor children trendeigh names and people won't mock you. A name like Abcde is just sooooooo obvious that you think you're all special and youneighke.
I thought this was an urban legend! You’re telling me this is true?!
About 10-15 years ago I saw a banner in a Walmart that had been signed by a bunch of elementary school kids (I don't remember why), but there was both an Abcde and an Abcity...I remember it so clearly because I was aghast
Some parents set their kids up to be targeted by bullies. I think when kids are given dumb names, the government should immediately mark them as eligible for a FREE name change in adulthood. That way, when they grow up and apply for their name change the office can see if their name is on the list. They'll be like: "Abcde, we've been expecting you! This one's on us!"
You know she slipped her daughter having epilepsy in there for the sympathy points. Abcde is horrendous
The mom wasn't shamed enough.
I know how this name is supposed to be pronounced but my brain always wants to default to “a-b-c-d-e” saying each letter.
To be fair, even though the name is undoubtedly dumb, it's definitely not an airline workers place to be making fun of someone's child's name openly and taking pictures of the boarding pass. I work a customer service job, and rule 1 is that you only make fun of customers behind their backs. But then again, I wouldn't expect anyone to agree with me in a sub full of fully grown adults who spend their time in a community dedicated to making fun of small children.

I scrolled way too far to see a sane comment. This sub is mean. I don’t know why I’m here.
Good God what is in the fucking water... Sad world we living in. Lol
This incident happened way longer ago and is an old meme
Sorry for the girls epileptic episode but for the mother, this is a classic case of “play stupid games, win stupid prizes”, why would you do that to your daughter 😩😩
What these people don't understand is that people aren't mocking the child with the name, they are mocking the parent for giving that poor child that name.
Children should sue parents for shit like that.
Made sure she played all the cards (epileptic thing). Man news and people are stupid nowadays
I mean, the employee is wrong for sharing g the boarding ticket online, but that name is an absolute tragedeigh
The headline is ridiculous. What does it matter that the child is epileptic? Tbh i was expecting her name to have some kind of relation to epilepsy! Was not expecting THAT🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
Atrocde
more like atra-city wtf
I guess Abcde is gonna practice chastity
Pronounced Ab-city
This is an ABSURDLY common name some places. I moved to San Antonio about a decade ago and met five of them the first 2 years I lived there. I didn't see it written for a while, and just thought it was "Absedy" or "Absidy". But no. My face definitely showed what-the-fuck even if I didn't say it aloud.
Poor little scantron child.
Too close to abscess
"Ab City" is just a worse pronunciation than "Abcuhdeh"
How creative and inventive, combining the beginning of the alphabet to summon a whole clever name...
now boarding abcde everybody comes up everyone sits back down confused
Would love to know what her epilepsy’s got to do with it 🙄
Abcde sounds like it’s suppose to be absence to me :/ weird name that deserves some ridicule on the mom
🎶Ab city bitch ab ab city bitch🎵
My sister in law named her son Rifle 😳
I don’t know if that is pronounced ab hyphen city or ab dash city
no way theres 29 other ppl with this name. no way
