    I have a cousin named Candy who just married a guy with the last name of Hill. I thought nothing of it until someone laughed hysterically and said, "so her name is going to be Candy Hill?!" :laugh:

    I answered a call when working in a call center and the dude's legal name was Batman. We looked up the legal documentation just to see...
  • It shouldn't be weird, but my name is Maggi... not sort for anything, and no e on the end. NO ONE has ever spelled it right without being told. Even my dad forgot the e on my last birthday card. It is wrong on my government id even.

    I once had a waitress named Banjo.

    Turns out they all had fake names at this country place we were eating at. And I was soooo pumped!

    my sister's name is meri. it sounds normal (mary), but is spelled in an unusual manner. i have a cousin derekia. she was supposed to be a derek, but somehow ended up the wrong gender. :) another female cousin glennis, named after my grandpa glen. a cousin named clarestina (pronounced claire-is-tina) and one of my cousins named her daughter 'caebin' which wouldn't be too bad except that she used that gaelic spelling and it has like fifteen letters. i don't even attempt to write it out. :) also a beth-scott, we just call her beth, who named her daughter conesta (like the game canasta).
