Ruling out root words and latin...I because this a made up word like phat...malarious means: the act of getting ready for a celebration, but time is short, therefore, making hasty and wasty.
I agree with sue & az, adding: something that you think is hilarious, but you feel quilty about liking it. My personal guilty pleasure: Boston Legal. Bill Shatner and whatsisname - utterly loveable pigs. I hate myself for loving it.
Let's see, you decided long ago that you would name your next girl, Mallory. But, you have lived in Utah just long enough to catch the spellreallycutenamesweirdsoyouappearunique bug. You now find yourself unexpectedly pregnant with a girl! Isn't that Malari-ous?
What great ideas! Since I made it up, everybody is right. However, my use of the word... With the creation of LRH I've disbanded my use of "I'm so funny" and exchanged it with "I'm hilarious" which has merged into malarious because I have been known to mumble or run words together. Thanks for playing my game everyone!
I have a peeve about names and name spellings. I'm not the boss of anyone and their name rights, but I do have an opinion and am not afraid to use it ;)
I don't understand the fetish of spelling a name completely different or making up some bizarre one for that kid to "stand out."
How 'bout you teach Chris self-esteem, confidence, and the strength to "stand out" by being a great musician, artist, student, humanitarian, friend, hard worker, etc. instead of making Khrys have to spell/explain his name for everyone he comes in contact with for the REST OF HIS LIFE?
If you find your or your kids name(s) on this list don't get bent out of shape. Hopefully you are confident in yourself to realize that not everyone will agree with you in life and you decided when you picked the name (or chose not to legally change it as an adult) that it doesn't matter what people think because you like it.

If you're in the market for baby names (if you've already named your child this, it's all good; I'm talking about future born children here), DO NOT name your kid these overused names (including the different spelling variations):
