Three reasons this name (given by Ashlee Simspon and Pete Wentz to their new son) is dumb:
1. Bronx Wentz sounds unpleasant. I have no issue with the name Bronx, but when paired with another one syllable name that ends with an "S" sound, it's just unpleasant and awkward to say.
2. Mowgli? I like to think I'm a kind and compassionate person, but even *I* want to pick on this baby for being named after a Disney character.
3. Bronx Mowgli. BM. Bowel Movement. Someone didn't think this through. Can you imagine walking into his bathroom someday and going to wipe your name on his monogrammed towels and seeing "BM" on them? I think I'd probably just wipe my hands on my pants.

Just to be a pain in the ass  Mowgli is a character from the book "Jungle Book" written by a notable author named Rudyard Kipling. It is not originally a Disney Character.
Happy Thanksgiving.

Mowlgi means raised by wolves .....
I think its quite a cute name to be honest .. no problem with it at all ... after all .. every name has been started by someone somewhere
go way back in time and all our names came from somewhere .......
my name is Jan which means wolf month ....Rachel means female sheep
why care .. if they like it ?????
George = tiller of the soil
Bush = lives near a thicket or forest ....
Petyon = meaning Paega's town.
hank = german home ruler

His first and middle initials might be BM, but add his last name and now he's a BMW 
Wolfgang Van Halen was named after Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. His father, Edward Lodewijk Van Halen was named after Ludwig van Beethoven (Lodewijk is the Dutch version of Ludwig) and he was carrying on the naming tradition with his own son.

They are not the only ones....
Years ago....when I was teaching,,,, I would find the weird names of the kids on my rolls. For some reasons, the twins got the brunt of it. But there were others.
Atari and Coleco (I can't even remember the spelling of the last one),,,, and
the girl named Phelopia. (Told her if I had a Greek son, I'm name him Testicleeze, she didn't get it,,, bless her heart)
Then there was the rush to African names that came along,,,, and that was OK I guess. And of course the infux of Arab names, which I had no chance in hell of pronouncing. To me, they looked like someone had spilled a box of magnet letters on the floor, or something that came up in the spoon of alpha-bits.
But the ones that struck me as, OMG, were the either the ones where the parents just hacked off the constinents to get the name down to where it ended in a vowel, or the ones that just plain did not see the irony of the given name.
Good example of the later, is former race car driver,,,,, DICK TRICKLE. I had similar stupid names on students, like Bigalo Butz, Iam Green, Richard Jacks (think about it), and Jack Masters.

I recently read an article about a poor girl named Talulah Does the Hula From Hawaii because she was suing her parents. She's so embarrassed she refers to herself as "K". No joke-it's true!

Friend of mine is an ER nurse. They had a kid brought in (nothing real serious) and the family was filling out papers and waiting to be called. When she went to call the child's name and looked at the chart she saw a name she did NOT know how to (tactfully) pronounce. So, she asked if the (last name) family was there.
The mom got ALL bent out of shape and called her racist for not saying the childs name. When asked, she said it was pronounced Shah THEE ed.
It was SPELLED..... Shithead.
What would YOU have done
