The names of phobias/fears come from Greek or Latin (except some phobias whose names are made up by Wiki Answers Contributors which are suspected to be Gibberish/Gobbledegook).
Some are serious and obviously real (like fear of Spiders and fear of enclosed spaces). Some seem ridiculous (like fear of chickens or fear of objects to the left of oneself). However, who are we to laugh if ridiculous-seeming fears are recorded by the world's psychology?
Ten phobias are below:
Arachnophobia - fear of spiders
Arachibutyrophobia - fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of one's mouth
Alektorophobia - fear of chickens
Cacophobia - fear of ugliness
Claustrophobia - fear of enclosed spaces
Didaskaleinophobia - fear of going to school
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedialophobia - fear of long words

Spheksophobia - fear of wasps
Triskaidekaphobia - fear of the number 13

Some people have phobias because of a deeply seeded fear of something they know they shouldn't be afraid of and therefore cant explain or rationalise, examples of these are baked beans, pigeons and door knobs. The key to phobias is memory, every phobia comes from a bad memory relating to the specific phobia although mostly these occur early in life and are therefore forgotten.

Social Phobia is the phobia of embarrassment. It is the phobia in which a person is scared of being bullied.
The irrational fear is called a phobia; the experience or object that triggers a phobia could be called a phobic experience or object.
