    My brother always said he wanted to name his first boy Isabangwachochi. I have no clue. He ended up with Damon, Tommy, and Zen.

    Worked with a guy whose last name was Booth. Married a woman named Candy (she kept her maiden name professionally).

    Had a co-worker name her daughter Alize'.

    The parents of Adolf Hitler, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie just had baby number four and DYFS grabbed him up before they could leave the hospital. (The older three are in foster care.)

    Only have one name in mind for FutureBabyBonny, and while it is a little country, it shouldn't hurt the career chances before getting in the door.

    I grew up in a tiny, tiny, tiny town where people were sort of artsy-fartsy hippie types. We had all kinds of funny names. My being a girl named Cory was definitely one of the most "normal" names out there.

    Examples: I have sisters named Echo and Ayla (I love both names btw), a friend named Jeremee (but she was a girl), and then there were people named Sunbear and Sunshine and Yael and Avi and Fox and other... unusual names.

    Oh, I also have a friend who is a fiesty redhead and is a ton of fun. Her name is Meg. Her middle name starts with an A. She married a guy with the last name Watt. Her name is Meg A Watt.

    Cinnamon and Ginger were sisters I went to school with. Cinnamon had red hair and Ginger had brown. Go figure.
    I went to high school with a Phuk Yu. (Say it out loud). Actually we prounouned it Puck, but it was spelled with the Ph.

    I taught a Myster, a Precious, an Angel, a Naked'a, and a Phantom.

    I have been giggling like crazy at some of these names! My sister went to school with a Colin Daniel - obviously not a weird name, but his younger sister was called Colleen Danielle. It was as if the parents ran out of inspiration after one kid! There was a Lois Lane in the same year group. Oh, and I used to teach a kid called Privilege who had a sister called Marvellous!

    I get the notion of unusual names but I don't get normal names spelled weirdly. I have known a Sali, a Melani, an Emileigh, a Dyan (Diane) and an Aneeqa!

    I was going to be named after my aunt, Teodula. Yeah I dodged the bullet on that one.

    I went to school with a precious.

    I'm also a crime reporter and I have seen some strange ones including Ebn, Shimmer, Akeelies (groan) and Atreybion.

    I have worked in health care for many years and have heard plenty of dumass names. Makes me wonder what in the world parents are thinking

    Virgin Mary--born at Christmas
    Chairaia--Chair + Rail + A + Chair rail ya

    The people who name their kids after cities or where the kid was conceived (tee hee--oh please!!)

    The self serving made up names--Nevaeh (heaven spelled backwards)
    Reality, Victorious

    Now there are the apostrophe names
    J'lil (a boy name)
    J'nora
    the younger the mother the more apostrophes

    My middle grandson is in first grade. I'll bet there are 100 kids named Jayden in the first grade in every county of every state.

    Odd ball spelling: Karleigh, Kar-Lee, Kym, Jennipher

    It's fine to be different and we all want our children to stand out and be someone, but please could we give our kids names that can at least be pronounced?

    Just thought of two more. These are true names of people I worked with. Switzerland Elks (a woman) and Hiawatha (can't remember the last name--a guy in the medical field.

    So just for fun, if anyone's last name is Morris, why not name your kids Doris Deloris Morris and Horace Boris Morris?

    When my grandmother worked at a limestone quarry, her boss was Mr Tree. His daughters were: (I kid you not!) Willow, Oak, Elm, and Maple.

    One of the drivers was named: Ted E Bear. The E did not stand for anything and Ted wasn't short for anything.

    My husband's best friend named his son" Kamren Issiah Lee Rasmussen. So his monogram would be KILR.

    There was a little girl in my Sunday School class whose name was Violence.

    With my name being Maryann, I have spent my whole life explaining myself like this: "M"-"a"-"r"-"y" not an "i" - no space - little "a" - 2 "n:'s - no "e"
    Consequently, my kids have classic names which people can spell without asking: Lucille, Jacob, James, and Jefferson.
