Crystal Snow Is Down A Kid – Thanks, DCS!

Crystal Snow on dreamindemon.com

Franklin, TN – Crystal Snow, 22, has been a time bomb parent waiting for casualties for quite some time.  Just months ago, in April, she was cited for a vehicle accident in which her then-five children were not properly restrained or in car seats.  In August, SnowSnow reviewsSnow reviews stabbed her ex-boyfriend in front of her children.   And now, her four year old son, Beqwatrus Miller, has died in yet another collision – because he wasn’t wearing a seatbelt.

The Division of Children’s Services has yet to remove any of Crystal Snow’s children, saying they are “working with her on questionable parenting issues”.   Oh, well, as long as they’re working on it.

Crystal Snow has a penchant for giving her kids nigh-unto-unpronounceable names: Deciandra, 6; Beqwatrus, 4; Lavontasha, 3; and the one year old twins, Jajayveon and Kajayveon.  But given that she started having these babies at the ripe old age of 16, I guess it’s no surprise she wasn’t finished adding extra letters and dotting her i’s with little hearts.

But she seemed to be doing all right, even with her near-constant state of pregnancy, until late 2007.  Between December of 2007 and AugustAugust reviewsAugust reviews 20, 2008, Franklin police were called to Snow’s house 17 times.  SEVENTEEN.  That’s a lot of domestic disputes and welfare check-ups, folks.

On April 30, Snow was driving a Plymouth Voyager with her five kids in it when she got into an accident.  None of the kids were properly restrained – Deciandra, then 5,  was in the front seat without a booster. The twins were in booster seats, but were sliding out of them because infants don’t belong in booster seats.  And Lavontasha and Beqwatrus were in the back of the van, unrestrained.  The details on that accident are largely unavailable except that it was an “injury accident”.  Crystal Snow lost her license, but kept her kids.  It was the second time in a month she’d been ticketed for improper child restraint.

In August, Crystal got into a fight with a former boyfriend – not, apparently, an unusual occurrence.  She pulled a knife and stabbed him in full view of several of her children.  She was charged with aggravated assault, bonded out, and… kept her kids.

Family, friends and neighbors were having fits, calling the Department of Children’s Services, asking for help.  DCS hasn’t released how many hotline calls were made, but neighbors say they called multiple times asking for something to be done.

DCS says that improper child restraint isn’t necessarily neglect – that they “take things on a case by case basis”.  When asked about whether aggravated assault in front of the kids constituted endangerment or abuse, a spokesman said that the agency had been “working with” Crystal Snow on her “questionable parenting”.  Which, I guess, makes it okay that she apparently still had no decent carseats and can’t drive to save her life – or her child’s.

On Saturday, Snow was behind the wheel of a 1992 Buick LeSabre  when she ran a stop sign and slammed into a tractor-trailer – or, rather, she slid under it.  None of the children was restrained.  Beqwatrus, 4, was killed, along with Snow’s current boyfriend Deadrick Harrison, 24.

Snow and her surviving four children were taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center in critical condition.  They are now listed as “stable” and charges are likely to be forthcoming for Crystal when she gets out of the hospital. FortunatelyFortunately reviewsFortunately reviews, the driver of the semi and his wife are okay.

But get this – DCS still says they “have not made a decision” about what to do with Snow’s remaining children if and when they recover.  Um, say what?

  • RowensBones
    My hink-meter is going off all over the place. Sounds like she's trying to commit suicide and take the kids and anybody else she feels like needs to go, with her.

    I have a bad feeling we'll be hearing from her again.

    Prove me wrong, PLEASE!!!
  • I have to jump in here. I have a very common name for the area I grew up in and always HATED that every time the name was called there were at least 3 girls in every class ALL through school who answered. I gave my kids uncommon names but I put alot of thought in them. (my boy is Merlyn Amadeus Orion-he goes by orion, and my girl is morganna anastacia danae-goes by Ana-pronounced ah-nah) But they are a mixture of adaptations of family names combined with inspiring mythology. I figure even if they hate their full names,they will have plenty of choices of "plain" nicknames to choose to be called.
  • sugarglider
    I agree, but with what people are naming their kids these days, I think Coy need not be worried…with names like my friend’s/family’s kids…Nikkita, Javonja, Anya (thank god I didn’t name mine that…her name would be Anya Johnson-(on-ya-johnson)), Aria (yes like area)


    Um, these are names that have been around for eons globally: Anya, Nikita, and Aria (which is not pronounced "Area"). These aren't unusual names...
  • whisperswing
    Whisper, you are not going to believe this but, I have a 9 y/o neice that was born on Valentine’s Day and my sis-in-law named her Heaven Lee !!! That is so funny b/c I have never met or heard of another Heaven.


    lol yeah i was tempted to do heaven-leigh but didnt wanna add more to a name she may have grown up hating so i decided jayson-leigh (can you tell i was a teenager jennifer jason-leigh was in fast times at ridgemont high) and kinda thought jayson-leigh was neat,,,the new heaven is Neaveh,,heaven backwards,,
  • absinthe
    So, this guy I'm dating just told me about a girl who got pregnant at his high school and named her child "Absity". Spelling? Abcd. Yes, a-b-c-d.
  • well i cant believe im putting this out there but my oldest almost died (her and i both) she was air lifted to a neo natal hosp 400 miles away before i even saw her(was knocked out) next day when we finally got to see and hold her the nurse handed her to me and said “heres your little piece of heaven” and yeah we named her that it just seemed to fit her and she was deathly sick for weeks and that name just seemed to suit her so i have heard all the comments over the yrs (shes 25) oh and born on valentines day lol so we have heard it all and i still dont regret naming her that

  • Castille
    My nephews name is a redneck name–Jett….


    I don't know that I'd call Jett a redneck name - it's in the naming after gemstones category, like Micah, Pearl, or Ruby. I'd have picked Diamond or Amber ahead of Jett for low class flair in this name set, but maybe that's just because I don't know any redneck Jetts.
  • ThisOne
    All the gratuitous “y”s and goofy alternative name spelling? I won’t comment. Wait, except to say, it’s worse that naming with nouns, lol.


    weird spellings almost always annoy me. i can't help it. i totally know what you mean.
  • I guess we all have our own opinions on names,
    but i like Coy....thanks much...
    lol
    I like unusual names, like that....
    A red-neck name?? My nephews name is a redneck name--Jett....
    I dont like it much, but to each their own.
    many people told me that Dasia is an oriental name, and I don't see how....but I like it all the well.
  • dmax
    just got email joke…..im guessin its a joke, i dunno…….bout a girl in LA named “Le-a”….pronounced “Ledasha”…..mom says ‘the dash dont be silent’


    LOL! "The dash dont be silent". Dats telligent! I like "A-a". Easier to spell. Or, just "-". Easier yet.
  • Abroad
    Oh, I have to shove in my opinion (but feel free to ignore it). “Coy” is a terrible name for a child. Can you imagine the jokes? “Coy Boy,” and “Coy Boy Toy,” “He’s just being Coy about it,” “Don’t be so Coy,” and even the nicknames “Goldfish” or “Carp.”


    There's that. And then there is adding a De at the front of the name to make De-Coy. It seems to offer more possibilities for interpretation than most names......
  • Kdogg
    As a male, I'm aware men commit most violent crimes. But women do too and if this had been a man that had done these things, those kids wouldn't have been within a mile of him.
    Forget the sentencing part of it, gender bias should have NO part in deciding the safety of children. This woman is violent and has shown she doesn't care about her kids? Why is CPS dragging their feet?
  • Bianca Pinjarra
    These names suck. Crystal Snow probably can't even spell her own name if a gun was held to head. It's no wonder she wasn't named Crystal Meth. Apparently she was doing something heavy like that when those babies were born. What about Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious? She forgot that one. Or Ollie Ollie Oxenfree? I am not a fan of strange names.

    My sister picked Payton for her daughter's first name and all I ever think of is "Peyton Manning." Sooner or later, many of these "unusual" names are going to be so common - like Jayden. Three of my coworkers had babies this past year and each one named their kid this. I personally prefer the family history plan and passing down of names from one generation to the next. My own first and middle names were given to me in honor of someone else. It gives you a connection and some family pride.
  • Castille
    I love seeing crazy names. Someday I dream of persuading someone to name a girl Hegemony - a nice pair to her brother, Oligarchy. I don't mind naming in nouns myself.

    Coy is... a redneck name. Or I guess to be more polite (and accurate,) southern. Like Beau, Elvis, or Billy Bob. That said, it's fine.

    Arthur is a family name in my family and he *will* be taunted unmercifully with Artie Fartie for a couple years in there, and it will be a nightmare. But it will also be temporary, and he'll recover. Arthur, or Art, is a fine name for a man.

    Persephony and Eurydice wouldn't come off ethnic at all I don't think. I'm not aware of any African American naming trends using greek goddesses. Roman names, like Octavius or Marcus maybe, and maybe Egyptian goddesses like Isis, but not so much with the greek. I particularly like Persephony myself. I wanted to name my son Odin, but somehow I had a pang of better sense over it. Now I'm going to have to name the next one Odin, ha.

    All the gratuitous "y"s and goofy alternative name spelling? I won't comment. Wait, except to say, it's worse that naming with nouns, lol.

    Oh, and that Lemon/Orange jello? Yes, urban legend, yes, dating back more than 30 years by my reckoning of at least personal experience. So quit insisting you know someone. Really. Or I'm going to have to put a bunny in your dryer.
  • Lynn
    My daughters are Destanee and Lindsee {dodges tomatos}
  • whisperswing
    My family just dislikes it because they want me to name him John, James, Tim, anything “normal” as they say.


    that was my arguement of my sons name,he was preemie(3 months) born on my grandads birthday and we named him after my husbands grandfather Casey just to give him a little extra help from beyond because it was so touch and go(they were both gone by then) but actually Casey means John,,my daughters name Heaven is now a number 1 name spelled backwards Nevaeh so somehow they all evolve and i read a article last week names seem to all come back every 99 yrs eg:Jack,Sarah,Jesse etc all come back

    There was an actress named "Joy Bang." Yeah, it was her real name.
  • I’ve always felt that, no matter what the name is, if everyone you know hates it, odds are the kid won’t have better luck with it. Not to say anyone should pick names solely on popularity…But names are a primary teasing target for other little kids. The better the people you know like a name (generally speaking), the less likely the name will provoke teasing from schoolmates.

  • I got all kinds of crap from my family for naming my daughter Dasia (like Asia)...people call her Daisy, Dayseea (Day-see-ah), if i would have spelled it like her daddy wanted me to (Daizsha) I could only imagine what they'd pronounce it as.
    I like the name Coy for a boy, but everyone I know hates it...makes me love it all the more.
    I think next time anyone asks...I'm just gonna say I decided to name my next boy Zahsajadfamajay.....lol --seems like thats what Ms. Snow did.

    I knew someone who's first and last names were Crystal Ball....ugh.

    There is a documented Wisconsin resident named Pepsi Marijuana (I believe her last name is Jackson). Her mother named her after her two favorite things!


    What is wrong with Mary Jane? :-P

    Then there’s the Senator Hogg, who named his daughters Ima and Ura. Sick stuff.

    Stupidass names are a self-fulfilling prophecy, that’s for sure. Look what happened to poor Deadrick the boyfriend. Most sadly accurate naming since Jaileen.


    Word! I was trying to find a way to comment on that that wasn't too insensitive under the circumstances. Leemouse really nailed it.
  • dixiegirl3179
    Ugh..driving around with your children not properly restrained is most certainly neglect, especially when one dies as a result. Assholes.
  • Zibarro aka Kryssa
    Un-freakin-believable! As others have stated, when I heard the twins names, I immediately thought of Oprah and her "Va Jay Jay"... poor kids!

    I'm really dumbfounded by CPS or whatever it is in that state, and their lack of action with this family! Ok... so you don't take the kids after the first accident -- perhaps you order she gets restraints, and then follow up to make sure she does -- whether she has a drivers license or not! My daughter and her husband don't have a car right now-- but they have 4 car seats! Two kids - 4 car seats. They never want to find that they need to be somewhere and someone forgot to take a car seat out of another car. Someone needs to do a thorough investigation into the local family services here. If they missed such obvious warning signs here -- I shudder to think of what they've missed with other families!

    As for names -- My oldest son's name is Marshall. My mom gave me grief for a long time about that. I said it's a name he can grow into with respect. Of course, it never occurred to me (I swear it didn't) that he had a worse obstacle to overcome --- his last name is Tucker. (Yes, just like the band!) Oops! He thinks it's cool now.
    My daughter's name is Sarah and my youngest's name is Ian (middle name Alexander, so I call him Alex) His dad wanted to name him after his own father "John Aloicious(?)" but I said "no." So we looked it up and "Ian" is another form of "John" and to keep the "A" middle name, we went with "Alexander".
    I wanted "normal" or "traditional" names, but not John, Mary or Bill (which ARE family names... )
    The twins names are Jaimi (named after my daughter's best friend who died when they were 13) and Ayryn (pronounced Air -in) Double "i" and double "y" for double babies!

    Lastly, I HATE that I share a name with the scum this story is about!! At least mine is with a "K"... but still. I hated my mom when I was growing up for giving me that name. It was uncommon then... not so much now.
  • Athena
    Personally, I like “Athena” and it is a strong consideration for my next child, should I have another girl. My daughter is Addison, but we call her Addie. I like homey, soulful names.


    If you go with Athena, neither you nor your baby will regret it. Growing up, there were always multiple children in any given class with the same name - three Michaels or two Jessicas - nicknames had to be developed or people had to be addressed by their last initial, "Jessica E." or whatever. Not me. Hell, I haven't even MET another Athena in person.

    I think Addison is a cute name. My little sister is preggos and intends to name her daughter "Marley Ann". I think it's absolutely adorable. It's got character. :P
  • Senna
    Why, thank you, Absinthe! I've always loved the name Arthur, ever since I was a little girl watching "Excalibur" with my father. I've always been a bit of the odd one, so I've never gone with the crowd. If everyone around me were naming their son Arthur, I would have chosen something else--but never something too "out there." After all, the child is the one who ultimately benefits or suffers from the name he's given.

    Interesting you mentioned that the majority of his peers being named some form of Jayden, though. Some of the babies in the nursery during Arthur's 7 week hospital stay were named Jayden or Jadon.
  • Rory28
    I have some friends with a kid named...Samwise Danger Thorpe ;-)...They just call him sam...and..."His Middle Name Is Danger" ;-)... ...I don't think that is mean,i think thats just DAMN Coool ;-)...heh heh...
  • WryBread
    "The dash don't be silent," well, that says it all, don't it.

    My parents knew a guy named "Stark White," but Stark is a real name: The boy's name Stark \s-ta-rk\ is of German origin, and its meaning is "strong".
    http://www.thinkbabynames.com/meaning/1/Stark

    So even if you do use and old name, you have to exercise some sense.

    I wish there was some way this woman could get a hysterectomy. It's my feeling that if she ever sees the light of day again she will just start having more kids. It's a senseless routine for her, a way to get attention and money and manipulate other people.
  • absinthe
    Senna, I love the name Arthur! And Artie is a cute nickname. Old-fashioned names are the sweetest. Believe me, your son will be glad when he is 30, and 99% of his peers are named some variation of Jayden.
  • Senna
    This story is sad in and of itself. But those names...what did she do? Pick letters at random? Egads! A lot of people don't realize that the label you slap on a child in infancy shapes how they see themselves and influences how others react to them. I know because of experience with my own real name. (It's not a cool name like Senna.) It's one of those Southern double names like JaneSue or MaryJo. No one ever took me seriously when I was a child until I started going by the first part of my name and just dropped the second part. All of a sudden, boys wanted to date me, girls wanted to be my friend and I got better grades. A name does matter.

    I'm on the same page as Jo Momma 82 when it comes to the name of my child and how others criticise. His name, first and middle, is Arthur Mikasi. (Arthur because my husband and I are both fans of Arthurian legend--it's one of the things that drew us together when we first met--and Mikasi to honor my husband's Native American heritage.) My family gives me constant grief about it. "Arthur's an old man name!", "Kids will call him Artie-Fartie!", "No one can spell Mikasi!", "How to pronounce it again? Mik-ASS-ee?", "Why couldn't you have named him John?", etc. Next time they start in, I'm going to say, "There's still time to change his name on the birth certificate. How do you feel about Beqwatrus or Jajayveon?" That should shut them up for good.

    Honestly, though, the kids could have been named Mary, Michael, Sarah, James and John and the circumstances would have still been tragic. They would still belong to a mother who stabbed her boyfriend in front of them. They would still have been riding in a car unrestrained and the four year old would still be dead. It's just sad. And shame on DCS for not taking appropriate action!
  • ThisOne
    …By the way, let’s not forget that mommie dearest’s name here is CRYSTAL SNOW. So, whaddaya expect from a beyotch who is apparently named after methamphetamine to begin with….


    oh and snow can be slang for coke. So she has a double drug name. Her parents must have been sweet as well.

    This story is just so depressing. I'm glad that the odd names cheered everyone up a bit.... cuz the story itself is so bleak.

    I really believe that people like this need to be fixed. She had better not have another kid.

    For me, I like unusual names.... but not insane ones. I'd be so pissed with half of these names.

    Saxtongirl, I always maintain that, neuter and spay people like we do our pets i mean come on how many more children will she dish out????????? if that is not done?????
    what a piece of garbage and a HORRIBLE MOTHER and i hope she gets put away this time for good and take the children and place them all together to a loving family, obviously not hers?

    yeah.....exactly what i meant in post #13

    I personally know an awesome guy named John Jay......but has always went by Jay....his last name was Hawks.....and yes i do live in KS

    also worked with weird lady that named her son Justyn.....middle name Tyme......she had 3 kids, not sure what others were named, but when they were early teens, she let them all legally change there names to whatever they wanted.

    just got email joke.....im guessin its a joke, i dunno.......bout a girl in LA named "Le-a"....pronounced "Ledasha".....mom says 'the dash dont be silent'
  • But she seemed to be doing all right, even with her near-constant state of pregnancy, until late 2007.  Between December of 2007 and August 20, 2008, Franklin police were called to Snow’s house 17 times.  SEVENTEEN.  That’s a lot of domestic disputes and welfare check-ups, folks.

    But get this - DCS still says they “have not made a decision” about what to do with Snow’s remaining children if and when they recover.  Um, say what?


    If they don't take her kids from her i am going to completely just give up. people like her who knowingly put their children at risk should be shot. she must drive like a maniac! what the hell is wrong with this dumb bitch?? what the fuck??
  • I grew up as April Amber Alexander. WTF??? I hate people that give their kids screwy names. Besides that - she just neeeds her snapper stapled shut. Dayum! 22 and 5 kids. Hooch!!
  • Bianca Pinjarra
    Another thought - I think it's finally time to publish the "parenting 'to do/not to do list" that's somewhere else on this website. It needs to be in a pocket guide for these idiots. But who knows, half of them probably can't read anyway.
  • I thought the name Condoleeza was odd, until I read this blurb about its origin; now I think it's really cool:

    "Rice's mother, Angelena, was a teacher and church organist. Angelena loved opera, and so named her only child after an Italian-language term, con dolcezza. It is used in musical notation and means "to play with sweetness."

    Dr. Rice lived up to the name, too--she's a very accomplished concert pianist.
  • Bianca Pinjarra
    Um...Hello?? What the heck state is this in? If I were a taxpayor there, I'd be pretty mad. Someone in authority, obviously, isn't using all 6 cylinders on this case. What kind of justice is that? Doesn't anyone care about the safety of these poor children? Why would this chick be allowed to keep any of her kids after so many mis-steps with them before? Does another one need to die for someone to wake up?? This is one sick story.

    Wow..I have been reading this site forever, and I finally registered to say yes, there ARE kids out there with some crazy names! In my very short time teaching, I’ve had a few girls named Precious, at least one Sunshine, and today I came across D’Aushaunique. She has severe behavioral problems, what a shocker.

    i have a animal rescue and 1 of the volunteers had been married and divorced yrs ago and she remarried later on but kept last name of ex because she wanted and girl and she used the name breeze (name of ex) and named her summer breeze,,,let me add ,she and her new hubby were 100% 60s culture and mega indulger of whats known here as B..C BUD so im thinking maybe smoked 1 to many

    Wow..I have been reading this site forever, and I finally registered to say yes, there ARE kids out there with some crazy names! In my very short time teaching, I've had a few girls named Precious, at least one Sunshine, and today I came across D'Aushaunique. She has severe behavioral problems, what a shocker.
  • joo
    Personally, I think she should have gone with the Cletus Spuckler school of children's names: Condoleezza Marie, Phil, Birthday, Crystal Meth, Dubya, Incest, International Harvester, Jitney, Witney...

    Seriously, there are many studies that show that people with "stupid-sounding" (for lack of a better description) names are discriminated against when it comes to job interviews. The name does become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

    There is a documented Wisconsin resident named Pepsi Marijuana (I believe her last name is Jackson). Her mother named her after her two favorite things!

    Rockstar/star kid names are the worst, not just Moon Unit Zappa and Dweezil Zappa, but, like Peaches Geldof and Fifi Trixibelle Geldof.

    well thank god i was born after michael hutchins (band inxs) and bob geldofs wife had a affair and had a daughter, because they named her tiger lily and then both committed suicide so bob geldof has custody and is raising her but my piont is my mom saw that name tiger lily and went nuts wanting me to have another just to name it tiger lily,she even suggested changing mine,,,although tiger lily is a cute name i guess ill keep "aimee'" easier to get through life with havng a boring name,,whisper

    Then there’s the Senator Hogg, who named his daughters Ima and Ura. Sick stuff.

    I have an acquaintance who is a teacher and she says she has a girl named Damya (Da-mee-ya) and has had a student named Shitya (Shi-ite-ya) and I believe her.

    If people want interesting names, why don’t they go back several generations in their own family? Lots of names that once were familiar have been dropped and at least they have a real meaning and a family association and aren’t just abuse of helpless consonants and vowels.


    My husband has a student that is named Cognac Chardonney-that says alot about the mother. For 9 months, either she was drinking heavily or she was waiting for the first drink once she gave birth!
  • gypsy_soul
    Thanks for the warm welcomes to the forum : ) What is up with people and these stupid names they give their kids? Even celebs are giving their children riduculous names and that should be considered a crime in itself.

    Did anyone who knew this Fertile Mrytle ever consider discussing , or purchasing some type of birth control for her? 22 and 5 kids? I am guessing they all have different fathers as well.

    I don't understand why the kids weren't taken after the stabbing incident. If the authorities had been called that many times out to her residance , wouldn't that be a red flag to someone that the children were not in a healthy environment? Why does it take something tragic to happen before someone steps in?

    Of course, there are plenty of absurd non-ghetto white-people names out there. Heck, Sarah Palin has kids named “Track” and “Trig” (not to mention “Piper”). What’s next for her future kids–Purple? Rake? Aspirin? Heh.

    Rockstar/star kid names are the worst, not just Moon Unit Zappa and Dweezil Zappa, but, like Peaches Geldof and Fifi Trixibelle Geldof.

    The hoodrats don’t have the corner on stupid-ass names, that’s all I’m saying.


    Oh, I agree wholeheartedly! Plenty of white folks name their children horrific names-but as dumb ass as they are-at least you can pronounce them for the most part.
  • buggysmommy
    We call white people who take on the mannerisms of black folk “wiggers”. Yes, the label is appalling, but it’s the most accurate colloquialism to describe such a condition.


    Familiar with that term too, but again, I wasn't trying to offend anyone. I'm a white woman married to a black man and someone may or could be saying the same about me on sight-so it is not really appropriate for me to judge. In my opinion, black women are strong and it is relevant in their mannerisms-it's cool to see a "strong black woman" be who she is. It's just weird, however, to see a white chick trying to be black.

    As for ethnic names, I am cool with those-but sometimes you have to admit, some black names just go too far. At least the names you like go with the last name and you took that into consideration. Personally, I like "Athena" and it is a strong consideration for my next child, should I have another girl. My daughter is Addison, but we call her Addie. I like homey, soulful names.
  • zenmom
    You’ve got to be kidding?! I have heard this before, when I was little I remember hearing my mom telling my dad about a woman who came into her office with 2 boys with THOSE names?! Were you in Texas or could this woman have moved from hear to near you or could there possibly be 2 moron moms that named their kids that way?!


    I mean, unless, she was pulling his leg...but she didn't sound like she was joking, in fact, she sounded appalled. They were NOT twins, just brothers. This was at least 25 years ago and that is the way the boys' mom put their names down on the forms at the dentist office at which my mom worked AND my mom said this woman called them by name in her office. So, if its urban legend, it's been around AT LEAST 25 years.
  • whisperswing
    Ok, now I’m all for unique names, but good grief!


    i agree with being for unique names ,,to a piont, but maybe i missed it are all these to 1 daddy or 5 diff dads??why arent they with dad if there are so many complaints against her,,do they know they have these kids (or had these kids)
  • ecvmanzo
    What??? DCS “have not made a decision”, are you kidding me? What else is there to consider? Should we all wait to see if perhaps she kills one of the children? Would that be cause to remove the others? Also, she is 22 and has 5 kids??? WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS STORY?...***vomits******
  • Concerned Citizen
    Crystal Snow has a penchant for giving her kids nigh-unto-unpronounceable names: Deciandra, 6; Beqwatrus, 4; Lavontasha, 3; and the one year old twins, Jajayveon and Kajayveon.  But given that she started having these babies at the ripe old age of 16, I guess it’s no surprise she wasn’t finished adding extra letters and dotting her i’s with little hearts.


    Ok, now I'm all for unique names, but good grief!

    But get this - DCS still says they “have not made a decision” about what to do with Snow’s remaining children if and when they recover.  Um, say what?


    The only thing I can possibly even guess about this is...maybe they need more funding? I mean, if anyone even mentions the idea of raising taxes (that would possibly help public services like this), they are immediately shot down. It's pretty clear these people need help.
  • Back in the day I named my son Daniel...now I'm kicking myself for not naming him Mephistopheles.
  • zenmom
    I used to work with a women who named her boys, well let me do the pronuncation first: La Mon Ga Lo and Or Lan Ga Lo

  • whisperswing
    well i cant believe im putting this out there but my oldest almost died (her and i both) she was air lifted to a neo natal hosp 400 miles away before i even saw her(was knocked out) next day when we finally got to see and hold her the nurse handed her to me and said "heres your little piece of heaven" and yeah we named her that it just seemed to fit her and she was deathly sick for weeks and that name just seemed to suit her so i have heard all the comments over the yrs (shes 25) oh and born on valentines day lol so we have heard it all and i still dont regret naming her that
  • My baby girls name is Ryver, My oldest daughter is Autumn and my son's middle name is Rayne... I've gotten alot of shit from my family and in-laws over their names, lol. I think if anyone brings up there names to me again, I'll say "well, we're thinking about jayjayveon if we have another"... that should shut 'em up.
  • LL44
    Heck, Sarah Palin has kids named “Track” and “Trig” (not to mention “Piper”)..


    Back off... my daughter is named Piper & I think it is beautiful and we get loads of compliments on it.... think Piper Laurie, Piper Perabo...
    I am university educated & nowhere near a hoodrat or breeder like the woman in the article!

    And the name Piper is nowhere near the ghetto-impossible to spell messes of the crackhead above!
  • whisperswing
    A little bit, but I was thinking more along the lines of the girl in Different Strokes, the one who overdosed.


    the one from was dana plato and she died from drug overdose if i remember correctly,,,also when some people name theyre kids i guess they dont think or think its funny,,we have a relative (adult now) but the ryan kok,,,pronounced" rye and coke" and i just cant get over others i have heard,Ima Pig(yes thats a real billionaires daughters name)!! my son is casey after his great grand dad and for yrs we heard wheres finnigan so he got a dog finnigan,,

    A “Hood Rat” is the one that is white but thinks she is black because she chooses to be with a black man ( or in her case, a black man or two) and takes on all the mannerisms of a black female. Hope I don’t offend anyone. It’s not my intention…


    I didn't think the term "hood rat" was at all race or gender-specific. Around here (Seattle), hood rats are just obviously and proudly ghetto people, no matter what color or gender.

    We call white people who take on the mannerisms of black folk "wiggers". Yes, the label is appalling, but it's the most accurate colloquialism to describe such a condition.

    On the name issue - I happen to be fond of names that, given the right context, would sound "black". I've always been particularly fond of "Persephony" and "Eurydice" (Yu-rid-i-see). Coupled with my boyfriend's last name, Harper, both combinations would sound rather...*Ahem*...ethnic. But combined with my last name, Zuljevic (Zool-ye-vich), the combinations would just sound really foreign. I've always found it interesting, the impact of a last name.
  • She should give all future kids her maiden name, Snow, and give them first names like “Crank” and “Ice” and “Speed.” Oh, and: TWEAKER.


    I believe there was a character in a very old sitcom named "Chrissie Snow"

    Tina and XTina would be good names for her next set of twins....or Lysterine and Dee-Con....Chumbawamba would be amusing...or TyroneDeBowl... >snicker, smirk<
  • sugarglider
    ...By the way, let's not forget that mommie dearest's name here is CRYSTAL SNOW. So, whaddaya expect from a beyotch who is apparently named after methamphetamine to begin with....

    Don’t forget Pilot Inspektor; Jason Lee’s son (My Name is Earl guy)


    Oh yeah! Oh well, if your parents are loaded and famous, it's probably not so bad to have a wack name. If, however, you are Beqwatrus Miller, you are screwed...

    Yeah…hmm…maybe quiz your best friend about it and then get back to me


    She isn't my best friend, it was some lady I used to work with. I mean I never saw the birth certificates, but that's what she said she named them. By the way I won't give out specifics so believe what you want that's fine. I think people just try to go above and beyond who knows. :)
  • CassieMomma
    p.s. the story I’ve heard–like the one Cassiemomma just repeated–specifically involved the twins Lemonjello and Oranjello (pronounced Le-MAHN-je-LO and Or-RAHN-je-LO).


    That's what I meant sorry. I thought about that after the fact...
  • sugarglider
    In my case it’s not. Maybe she heard the urban legend and liked it, I don’t know. Also in my case they weren’t twins (born shortly apart, maybe a year or two). and who would admit to it anyway This freak lady has some weird ass names for her children so I don’t know what to tell ya.

    There's no way there are multiple sets of these twins running around.

    The 1st time I heard this story was like 15 yrs ago. I repeated it myself, until I heard it another time about yet another person's "best friend's mom the teacher" or whatever and realized...oh, well, obviously, this is an urban legend!

    P.S. I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO USE THE NAME FOR A KITTY! An orange tabby named Oranjello would be sweet as hell! :)
  • CassieMomma
    THIS IS AN URBAN LEGEND. I HAVE HEARD THIS STORY NUMEROUS TIMES–AND IT’S ALWAYS SOME VERSION OF “MY FRIEND’S AUNT IS A SOCIAL WORKER, AND…”


    In my case it's not. Maybe she heard the urban legend and liked it, I don't know. Also in my case they weren't twins (born shortly apart, maybe a year or two). and who would admit to it anyway :) This freak lady has some weird ass names for her children so I don't know what to tell ya.

    I was also looking at Porcelin's comment about the stabbing and yeah duh who does that. I have been plenty mad at my husband, but I've never had the thought in my head to just stab away. If she's that off, they should of taken her children.
