Origin: Spanish

Meaning: Mercies

Mercede, meaning "mercy," is a feminine Spanish name looking to reclaim its title from the fast-moving luxury car manufacturer. There are at least four ways a baby is better than a car, so here goes. Some people dream of an expensive car to show off to their friends, but you can have your own Mercede for free. While a car depreciates rapidly, loses its color, and starts falling apart, Mercede will shine brightly and grow more beautiful daily. To make a car sparkle, drive to a car wash, wait in line, then return home and coat it in wax. To make a baby sparkle, bring them to a sink. If your car leaks oil, there is simply no diaper big enough to cope. At this point, Mercedes shouts "mercy" and concedes to baby Mercede.
