I dislike Bandit as who would want to be known as a criminal?

Blech. I’ll echo everyone else here. Bandit’s awful.

You’re probably right, Kat. Apple Blythe Allison and Bronx Mowgli will think her name is perfectly normal.

Speaking of Apple, that’s the outrageous starbaby name I actually quite like.

My grandmother had a long haired dachshund named Bandit. lol

Still, I don’t dislike this as much as everyone else. And as far as being taken seriously, I doubt the children of famous band members really have to worry about such things.

I agree. Helena is a great name. It’s a whole lot better than Bandit and actually female.

I have nothing against unique names but this trend of using off the wall names like Bandit, Dreavyn, Bronx Mowgli, Messiah Ya’Majesty, etc… is beyond ridiculous. Do these parents really hate their kids that much?

The saddest thing is, they could as well have named their daughter Helena, like the famous MCR song (and Way’s late grandma).

My first thought when I read about this was “What the heck are they naming, a dog or a baby?” If they had to use Bandit as their child’s name, it would have been better on a boy, but only slightly.

That little girl is never gonna be taken seriously when she’s older. Bandit Lee Way does not look good on a resumé or job application. I laughed at the “Lee Way” part. At least she can go by Andi/Andy or Ann if she wants to, or even Bea.

There was a kid in my 3rd grade class (lol Like 13 years ago, pretty long time.) named Justin Way. Seriously. Nice kid, and kind of popular, but some people did make fun of him for it.
