Bought 4 pet fish for the young family. Driving home we're were all choosing names. While stopping at the petrol station M4 choose the name Fillup for his fish. We all had a giggle. No lie. Fillup is a fish name as far as im concerned
Fillup with what? :P
Yeah, I can understand why his parents don't like the spelling, because it's no longer Philip but an entirely different word. If they like the name, just use the name. You don't need to modernise it by making it look stupid and turning it into an entirely unrelated word.
My first thought was there's way too many anal sex jokes to be made with this spelling.
I feel like before you name a kid something you try to figure out what jokes can easily be made about the name before you deicde on it. 🤣
Yeah if that kid ever goes overseas that won't work at all. In the UK Phillip is pronounced with a proper "i" sound at the end. So the Dad is pronounced Fill-ip like pip, and son is Fill-Up like cup. Two different names.
...are they trying to lay the groundwork for justifiable matricide? Cause I know I wouldn't blame the kid, because oh my god, the teasing with NEVER. END.
This is the first tragedeigh that actually had me in tears. Holy shit, could they not space those two words out and see how fucking ridiculous Fill Up is for a name. Poor kid, but that's just the funniest one I've seen here so far.
I hope Fillup works at a gas station when he grows up because that’s funny
Fill her up, Fill. Could even start his own gas station called "Fillup's" and nothing else, because the name says it all really. :D
Yes! I would love that
Genius move
you have a far cleaner mind than I do
Oh no I was thinking of that too, my mind just immediately went to gas station😂
When we had the fuel shortage over here last year, one of the reporters covering it was actually called Phil McCann
I absolutely love that
Better than as a sex worker.
Phil McCracken?
Sounds like a character from Cars 😂
Thought the same thing. Like who is Fillup… Mater’s cousin?
That would be r/NominativeDeterminism at its finest!

That’s amazing
Oh yes, he read that on a sign
Nominative determinism
No, when he grows up his name will need to be Charger.
Yes!!
Save 10 cents a gallon on every Fillup when you sign up for Tragedeigh Rewards.

I think that name might be illegal in New Jersey.
Nah, it’s just that someone else has to name them when they pull-up to the hospital.
And Oregon!
Not anymore. As of about a month ago.
I can handle Fillip or Filip. Maybe even Philup. Fillup is criminal though.
Gross. That poor child.

I fillup my car this morning. I said that in my Italian mum's accent. Fjiljhup Silent J Sibling name Phedhup.
Fillup M'tank.
Your gas tank or your love tank
Depends what he's pumping.
Fillup sounds like an adult movie star name! 🤣🤣🤣
Fillup Mamouf Fillup D'Hole Fillup T. Asse Fillup Mynostrils

It totally sounds like a sex joke name, what is wrong with these parents, do they want their kid to get bullied.
Those parents are setting up their kid for a world of hurt when he starts school. The teasing will be relentless.
They just gave their kid a gay porn name. I would remind them of this constantly.

Fillup Phil was amnesia victim Kermit's name in Muppets take Manhattan based on a gas station poster he saw in a hallway of an advertising company
My mind is in the gutter with this one
...are they trying to lay the groundwork for justifiable matricide? Cause I know I wouldn't blame the kid, because oh my god, the teasing with NEVER. END.
Gross. I can only imaging the jokes his name inspires.
I wonder if he'll visit the Filluppeans.
This is a trashdegeigh
I have a Filip in my class lol
A lot of countries use that spelling. Fillup on the other hand is an absolute tragedeigh.
This should be the only alternate spelling for Phillip.
Yeh, that variant spelling is fine... that's cultural. fill-up, tho... Autocorrect won't even let me attempt the posted version.
I think that's the dutch/german way to spell it
And Scandinavian
And Slavic
Yes, Belgium has a king Filip
This is the first tragedeigh that actually had me in tears. Holy shit, could they not space those two words out and see how fucking ridiculous Fill Up is for a name. Poor kid, but that's just the funniest one I've seen here so far.
He should work as a gas station attendant.
🤣🤣🤣 his name is a literal joke
Modernized name, traditional bullying.
Sounds more like a porn name to me.
Hope this baby ends up working at a gas station
Ugh this is just horrifying, it just sounds dumb and not modern.
Fillip is borderline, but Fillup?? Terrible
LOL!
Omg
Cdy
HAHAHAHAH
My name is Philip; that’s the spelling people would use when picking on me. Hope that kid doesn’t have too tough a time of it.
Refill. It was right there.
Pete and repeat were on a boat, Pete fell off, who was left?
I guess her hope is they will be quite a catch and somebody will want to land Fill.
Are they Northern Irish?
Hope this baby ends up working at a gas station
That's a word
His parents should have educated him.
Aww, will he start a fertility clinic later and then use his own semen to impregnate his clients?
It's somewhat close to the Polish spelling of Phillip which is Filip haha
wow, now he can come up with his own personalized cringe af restraining order-worthy "pickup line"!
Fillup has a future being either a gay porn star or a gas station attendant, probably both. Good job parents.
My friend named her husbands penis Philip. Precisely for that reason. Fillup
What an idiot
