"Interesting" Names

in Chit-Chat
So after viewing a work related subpoena at work, I came across a rather funny name. Made me think of other names I have come across in my line of work. The attorney's name was, no kidding, Wiener Cadet Jr. Other names that come to mind that I have seen as legal names were:

Sayonara Reefer
Randy Stalker
Sanjay Chode (later changed his whole family's name to Choday)

One from childhood:
Sky Blu (parent was NOT a hippie)

What are some actual names you have come across that strike you are funny or interesting? Please keep it relatively clean, and refrain from posting "unique" names.

    Husband went to school with Dorcus Clapsaddle.

    I did not believe him until I saw his yearbook. It's true.

    My mom's old bass player had a boy and girl named Nico and Nigel. I know a few hippie people who have kids named Rain, Sage and Echo.

    I know a Dorcus too. Apparently it's a biblical name, though I don't remember it from 10 years of Christian school.

    The best hands down, there were TWO girls a grade ahead of me in high school named Jenna Tull. NO JOKE.

    Best one ever....a guy called and left me a message from my company's Japanese office and to this day, I couldn't tell how it was spelled, but it basically sounded exactly like "Itchy Coochie". I kept the voice mail for like a year, and would call when drinking to play it for my friends :laugh:

    I work at a French company too, and one guy's last name is "LeBastard"...that's always good for a laugh

    D!ck Head. Was Mr. Head to us, as he was my 6th grade teacher. If My name was Richard, I would never go by D!ck... unless my last name was head...

    Went to school with two guys with these names:

    Richard Head Jr.
    Harry Palm Jr.

    So sad because you know their fathers had to have gotten *kitten* all through school and then turned around and named their kids after themselves!!

    Was in the military with a William D!ck...his rank was Major

    D!ck Dix.

    When I was in high school, I was a shift manager a restaurant. The scheduling manager and I had a good laugh at the application from him, which had been turned in on night shift, and then we just tossed it since we got weird ones like that as jokes sometimes. A little while later, he called to follow up about the application.

    Oops.

    My grandmas maiden name was "Snodgrass".

    Also, my cousin's name is Purvis... it's just unfortunate, considering he's in 9th grade, so terribly short, has moobies, and only has one friend (both of whom are very weird). I love the kid to death but dear god I hope he gets tall soon.

    After my daughter was born, she spent 3 months in the NICU.
    I saw a lot of "interesting" names of some of the babies....

    Shi-thead. Spelled just like that. But the nurses couldn't print out the "-" on the paperwork so the poor kid had
    Sh*thead on all his stuff. Apparently it's an African name prounouce (shuh theed).

    There was also a Strawberry Kiwi and a Bunny Rabbit. I *kitten* you not.

    I was in Navy boot camp with Jim Glasscock, and Handwork (forget his first name). The CC's made sure those two shared the same upper/lower rack.

    Oh yeah, I was also in an indie band in college with a guitarist named Tony Stark, and there was another dude named Craig that looked exactly like Robert Downey Jr. So we always joked that they should exchange names for the good of humanity.
