Example? I can't think of anything but my own name, which has 4 vowels and 1 consonant (which is what I assume you meant), and is quite normal.

I mean adding extra vowels to the point where it's hard to prounounce. I have a real-life example in mind, but can't even remember how to spell it, it was so complicated. Only 3 vowels were needed, but because of substitutions (like 'au' for an 'o') it ballooned out to like 6. Think like if someone named their kid "AisTha" but spelled it "Aiyeishia." Or "Terrence" became "Taiyrinse." It was that type of ridiculous. Poor kid.
