    My sons name is Shea. Yes, he is a boy and it is pronounced "Shay" or "Shae". If I had known no one would be able to properly spell it or say it..I would have made it "Xie".

    As Xie-Xie as Im sure some of you know is "thank you" in Mandarin Chinese.

    After 4 miscarriages. It fit.

    Jacquie - (Jackie) We call her Jax or Jaxsun.
    Jacob - His middle name is Lapeer (la-pier). It's a family name that we needed to hand down. His friends all call him Peer.
    Jonah - I love it, he hates it.
    Jericha (jair-ika). Yeah if any of you remember the Jem and the Halogram cartoon from the 80's (like barbie and the rockers). My youngest son's name is Jourdain (zure-dane).

    My niece named her son Trevin.

    My grand daughters are Jade and Killian (like the beer).

    I even knew someone name Blue Pony.

    I don't know but my mom wanted to name me Polly Esther....I would have died. It almost caused a divorce. She decided to name me Beth. (thank God.) anyway my ex boyfriend's last name was Silk so that would have been funny if my name would have ended up to be Polly Esther Silk.

    Who was the celebrity that named their kid Blanket?

    That was dumb.

    michael jackson
    Yea, Michael Jackson was a great




















    artist, but I just didn't understand that name.

    Blanket is just a nickname, his real name is Prince Michael II. :smile:

    I have actually always wished I had a unique name. Though these kids named after Jell-o... not quite the direction I was thinking!! :laugh:
    Mine is Melissa and I went to school with at least 2 or 3 other Melissa's in my class at all times. There were so many of us, we had to go by "Melissa D.", "Melissa W." etc. BORING!

    Thing is, my mom's name is Treasure and I always thought that was awesome to have such a unique name. :smile: :smile:

    Went to school with a Destiny Calls...

    My oldest is Anya June-Frances.. She has two middle names. not that crazy, but when you try to give people her middle name they never fail to look up at me completely stumped.

    My name is Robyn. 5 letters. I went into a Vons to get a cake for my daughter and the woman behind the counter could NOT compute "Robyn with a Y". She almost cried she was so stumped. I had to write it out for her.

    I have no hope for humanity sometimes..

    I think there are some pretty cool names out there, like names from books/comics/video games, but I'd hesitate to name my kid something like that, because it'd seem selfish. Yeah, *I* like it, but he'll probably be made fun of for years. Not fun for him :(

    I read a name spelled "Female", but pronounced "fuh-MAHL-yuh". Weird stuff.
    Also, another named "Spontaniouse".

    I figured since my kids are going to have to deal with their name for the rest of their lives, I would give them names people won't have to struggle to pronounce or spell. Our youngest is Erica and her dad wanted to spell it with a K. Thank God my mother in law forbid it because I wasn't up to the task.

    I know a kid her name is pagan. her mom sent her to a christian school... i'm sure that went over well.
