Isn't it just wonderful how some foreign names can hold such beautiful meanings? Porntip is a perfect example of the richness in names around the world. It is not disgraceful, nor should one be ashamed to bear it in places where English is widely spoken. It's disheartening to see this lovely name subjected to mockery. What's wrong with a bit more empathy and compassion? The world is better for the beauty of names such as these, even if others might put them to terrible purposes. Kindness makes the world a little bit brighter for everyone!✨.

It works just fine in Thailand... although if a Thai family wished to move to an English-speaking country, they'd better rename their kid because they'll just get bullied hard and have no friends, and probably no job prospects in the future. If I ever wanted to move to a non-English speaking country and my name in the country's native language translated to Diarrhea Jesus, you bet I'm changing it the moment my feet touch the airport carpet.

No, your comment is not only disrespectful but also incredibly immature. Mocking a name with strong cultural significance, however humorous it may seem, reflects poorly on your character. I assume you are an adult, so I hope you will take a moment to reflect on your words and be a little nicer next time you see a funny name. I understand where you're coming from, but there are nicer ways to put it. I sincerely apologize if my response seems harsh, but I believe it is important to strive for empathy in our interactions.

Obviously this name is acceptable & fine in Thailand, but if the Thai person named this ever moves or goes to a English-speaking country... yeah there is 100% definitely gonna be at least some teasing going on about it.

It's beautiful. But PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT NAME YOUR CHILD THAT IF IT'S NOT A CULTURAL NAME FOR WHERE YOU LIVE. You will be ruining your child's life by literally naming them "Porn".

Unfortunate.

Porntip is a beautiful name, and luckily not everyone wants to live or visit an English speaking country.

It's actually a pretty name, but if you are from an English speaking country (or any country that uses the Latin alphabet for that matter), I would recommend spelling it like "Pontip" to avoid bullying.

Sort of like a technical English word, even though it sounds naughty.

This seriously can't be a name! How laughably unfortunate. Perhaps use an alternative spelling. Pontip is slightly better since it doesn't have the blatant "PORN" in it.
