    My oldest daughter is named Rio. I'm sure people think that is a freak name--and yes, she is named after the Duran Duran song.

    My husbands aunt is a teacher and had a child in her class whose name is Orangello. So I was thinking maybe the hospital must have been serving orange jello the day this child was born.

    Orangello? LOL that was from a kids cartoon in the 90's. They were twin genius' one girl named Orangello and her sister was Lemongello. LOL

    that's why I waited to my kids were old enough to pick their name. This way they won't be saddled with one they don't like.

    So far, my little Megatron and Shredder are doing just fine in life.

    lol i love this <3

    A nurse I know in the baby ICU section had someone want to name her daughter "Etoh" because she saw it on her chart and it "sounded pretty"

    ETOH is a medical code used to indicate that the mother was intoxicated when she came in to deliver :noway:

    My little Spiderman should meet your kids! They'd get along great!

    No, but seriously, my son's name is Jett. Some of my more traditional older family members needed to get used to it a little.

    My sister had a couple friends in high school named Princess and Diamond. I would feel really special all the time if my name was Princess or Diamond!

    I really like Liberty (Libby for short) cute
    I considered Liberty for awhile and also Rebel. Beautiful strong, unique names!
    Instead, my three girls are Shade (like it sounds like tree shade), Carsey (car-see) and Indiana (called Indy.)

    My favorite artist's three daughters are named Pilot, Penn and Poet.
    Long live the different name!
