    My math teacher was Harry Weiner, I went to school with a girl named Tomorrow, I've met a girl named Tequila before, and my best friend was Hunter Strong (girl, btw) and her dad was Barry Lee Strong, lol
    And don't forget about celebrities! The only one I can think of at the moment is Apple Paltrow.

    I think some parents name their children based on the scrabble tiles they get.

    My roommate in tech school was Autumn Bush, and yes, her parents were hippies. She was a cutie though!

    I read every SINGLE reply to this, waiting to see if a certain name would pop up. It hasn't.
    I'm all for unique, different, cultural names,
    but I have a student whose name is Random. Random.
    He's a strange little caucasian boy.
    And I dissaprove of his name.
    Nobody talks to him :(

    ****head................pronounced Shi theed.....ya..i saw that on RWJ lol not sure if its real youtube it

    Yes, sadly, that is a real name. There is a kid in our area named that.

    I know an L&D nurse who had a woman name her baby girl "vagina"--she said she heard the word and thought it was just beautiful...some people should not be allowed to reproduce.

    A contractor that worked on my house was named Sip Jack Daniels. He was really proud of his name and had it on the back of his pickup. ;-)

    My daughter was taking the baby to the nursery at the gym and a mother was picking up her little boy. His name was Skyden.
    After reading all of the posts, I am just shaking my head.

    Parents should test out the potential name by yelling it out the back door several times.

    Well-known urban legend. Did you see the child yourself or hear about it from a co-worker?

    A high school friend of mine named his two twin boys -

    Jesus, and Lucifer

    Not kidding, I didnt think they would allow it but Jesus is a common name

    Btw both white, he is an atheist

    The funny thing is Lucifer is the good one and Jesus is the little *kitten*

    Their family has rejected their given names and their nic names are (Jesse and Luke)

    lol

    I suppose my name is a little different. It's Rissa (pronounced like carissa, marissa, etc but without any of the extra letters in front). It's a rare occasion when someone can get it right by the first try.

    When I have kids, I plan on naming then unordinary names as well. I already have the names Emberey and Hadley in my head :)

    This reminds me of the skit by Louis C.K. on how there should be laws on what you can name your kids. He's cracking jokes about naming his son "Ladies and gentlemen" so when he gets out of hand he can say "Ladies and gentlemen please!" :laugh:

    I grew up with a girl whose name was Pepsi. Also knew a Canya Laurel Fly (which is meant to sound like can you lure a fly)

    Okay, so am I the only person who hears the name someone gave their child or you meet someone and they tell you their name and you wonder, what is the parent/s thinking??

    case in point: a girl I went to uni with. (in the USA). her name was Abcde (pronounced ab-sa-dee). really??? I mean, come on!

    anyone else hear any crazy names that just made you scratch your head in disbelief?

    That name is actually on the site Babynames.com. I've heard of two of them personally, but never actually met one.

    My kids are : Sarah (step daughter)
    Nehemiah (step son from the bible)
    Zylar (step son)
    Reign (daughter)

    I wanted her to be Kailynn but my husband wanted to continue with odd names. Sarah is the only one with a normal name =( Love them all though!

    My cousin named his daughter Araya Faith (sounds like a ray of faith) kinda cute, but named after a dog.

    I teach and we have a lot of princess, promises, precious, blessing....and believe me from a teacher's perspective they never live up to their names!

    My youngest son is named Sterling and he is a very precious person. He has always loved his name as I always told him that I named him that because of what Sterling means. It means highly valuable and precious. So he always did his best to live up to it and make me proud.

    If the kids don't live up to their names it just might be because the parent changed their mind about the value of said child and raised the child accordingly.

    I had a lady I used to attend church with who's son's name was Keen. i can just imagine giving birth and looking into your baby's face and thinking, how keen.

    My sons name is Dallas...The first thing my Dad asked me in the hospital was...You didn't name him after that stupid TV show. No Dad. I got the name from the book "The Outsiders".

    My nieces father-in-laws name is Fudge...:Yup that's his real name.

    Our neighbors in Fall City named their son Dillon Danger. The Dillon isn't bad, but Danger??
