Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar’s baby naming process was revealed. An old video surfaced on the internet. Duggar fans are “weirded out” by the footage. The clip from 19 Kids & Counting revealed that they considered Jimelle for their 18th kid.

Michelle and Jim Bob asked their kids to vote on a name. They gave their kids a long list of first names and middle names. They wanted them to come up with a combination for their future spawn. It was important for Michelle and Jim Bob to have their kids’ input.

Old 19 Kids & Counting clip surfaces on the internet

Jim Bob and Michelle first starred in 19 Kids & Counting before Josh Duggar’s crimes took place. TLC revamped the show into Counting On. An old clip from the original series made its rounds on Reddit. The first names list included potential names that started with the letter J, including Joneal, Jimelle, and Jacee.

Meanwhile, the middle name list included Brook/Brooke, Brooklyn, Charity, Emma, Grace, Hope, Madison, Makiya, and Paris. Yet, fans were shocked to see Jimelle and Jichelle as possible names. The names are a combination of Michelle and Jim, similar to “Brangelina.” Some fans found it creepy while others recalled how ridiculous those names sounded.

Thankfully, the parents ended up naming their 18th child Jordyn-Grace. Reddit users commented about the couple possibly naming their child Jimelle or Jichelle. Some of them had a good laugh, while others couldn’t help but cringe.

  • “I remember this episode. I think they had each kid, even the little kids, pick a name. It was pretty lighthearted and I think they put all of them in.”
  • “This makes me feel better that it wasn’t the parents who gave the names to choose from.”
  • “At this point, I kinda wished they used it. Just incredibly really.”
  • “Jichelle is bad. January is bad. I could EVEN give them Jimelle if it was Jamel and for a boy.”

Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar made headlines before

Not a day goes by when the Duggar family makes headlines. The fans love to criticize their every move on social media. They also use that very Reddit to talk about the show. This old footage comes after a trailer for an unaired season of 19 Kids & Counting made its way onto that same platform.

The trailer features moments that fans missed out on. In the trailer, Jessa Duggar is pregnant with her first child, while Josh’s wife, Anna Duggar, is expecting her fourth child. Around that same time, Joseph Duggar started college while Josiah says he’s ready to court Majorie. That relationship ended and he’s now married to Lauren.
