Internet trolls influencer Nara Smith again for bizarre baby names like 'Butter and Velvet Button'
Nara Smith's baby name brainstorm sends the internet spiralling
Nara, who is pregnant with her fourth child with fellow model Lucky Blue Smith, took to her social media to share the names that didn't make the cut. And let us just say: chaos ensued.
'Pretty unique' is how Nara sweetly described the list. The internet, however, had another word: unhinged. From boy names like Moss Goody Sundae, Champ, Silk, and Dare, to girl picks like Twinkle, Velvet Button, Willow Mirror, and the ever-controversial Butter, viewers were left wondering if she was naming a fairy garden or a human child.
Nara also expressed love for the names Merit and Shimmer, along with past contenders like Lemon, Pipin, Halo, Flick, and Mercer. She confessed that naming her kids has only gotten harder with each baby, especially after already blessing the world with names like Rumble Honey, Slim Easy, and Whimsy Lou.
The commenters were shooketh
It did not take long for the comments section to explode. One user jokingly asked, 'Are you naming an elf on the shelf or a child?' Another, clearly struggling to process the list, simply said, 'Girl, please.'
Someone else issued a brutal but honest reminder: 'Nara, remember they won't be babies forever and have to introduce themselves to co-workers and bosses.' That comment alone racked up over 500,000 likes, because apparently HR departments are not ready for 'Butter' to join the team.
Still, not everyone was on troll duty. Some fans actually loved names like Sundae and Velvet, calling them 'adorably whimsical.' But the overall vibe? Confused but entertained.
Fairy tale or identity crisis?
Whether you think Nara is redefining baby naming culture or just trolling for content, one thing is clear: the internet will never be emotionally prepared for someone named Button to file taxes.

Dylan Marlowe Escorted Out Of Country Jam Festival After His Performance
Last Updated: Country singer Dylan Marlowe was escorted out of the Country Jam festival in Wisconsin after his set. Country music singer Dylan Marlowe has found himself at the centre of a viral controversy after being removed by security from the Country Jam festival in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. The incident, which unfolded shortly after Marlowe completed his set on Saturday, was caught on camera and widely circulated across social media platforms. The video shows Marlowe being forcibly escorted out of the venue, with security grabbing him by his shirt. What drew further attention was fellow artist Jake Owen, who was performing at the time, acknowledging the situation mid-song with the words, 'That's Dylan Marlowe." The incident left fans confused. Marlowe later clarified his side of the story on Sunday via a four-minute TikTok video. The singer explained that he had been watching Owen's performance from a front-of-house tower alongside a friend. Both were wearing 'All Access" and 'Artist Credentials" wristbands provided by their tour manager, granting them backstage mobility. 'We were like, 'Hey, we have All Access wristbands given to our tour manager for us to wear to be anywhere we want to be,'" Marlowe said, describing their initial conversation with security. Despite showing credentials, the guard reportedly dismissed them, saying, 'No. I don't care. So and so said you can't be up here." The duo then moved to another area but were again approached, this time by the same security guard accompanied by police officers. Marlowe recalled being told, 'This security is our boss and he's telling us to get y'all out of here." Talking about the encounter, Marlowe admitted, 'I'm not going to paint it like I was this perfectly great dude… There were definitely a few heated words exchanged… I feel like he was rude to me, and I was rude back. And I shouldn't have been." Despite this, the singer says he holds no grudges. 'I forgive the guy," he said. Marlowe is known for songs like 'Boys Back Home,' 'You See Mine,' and 'All About It.'
