    My husband's cousin named her daughter Darkchild Destroyer. She (the cousin) had her last name legally changed, along with her husband, to Destroyer.

    I met a guy called Michael Hunt. This would be fine if his nick name weren't Mike. Mike Hunt? Really? Were you thinking when you named your child?

    I used to work in the shipping department and also in the customer service department of the same company.
    In both places I had to handle the accounts of families who named their child:
    1. Satin Sheets (first and middle name)
    2. Poise N. Ivy (first name and 2 middle names)

    Really?

    edit: those weren't last names.

    My daughters school has a Thor and a Sword - both boys.
    Ive heard of person with first name ZinZan Brooks (fellow kiwis will understand this), ''Bram Evil''??? Where does this come from
    She played a tee ball team that had a ''Mercedes Coupe'' - Seriously..mmm Mercedes maybe but did they really have to add the Coupe??

    I call out patients names in the waiting room and although their not weird sometimes they are difficult - example
    "Va'alooagalu Filesiolu'osa'a'' (not actual patient name)

    How would you pronounce this in a waiting room full of people??

    Haven't heard of too crazy of names, although people who name their kids after alcohol boggle my mind. Brandy, Margarita, Sherry... I don't understand.

    ._. Were they really named after alcohol beverages or were the beverages named after them.

    Margherita (pronounced Margarita) is Italian for daisy. :D

    I went to high school with a Candice (Candy) Valentine who's birthday was Feb 14th, and another girl named Honey Bear Hoover who looked like her name would suggest.

    In college, I had a professor by the name of Harry Weiner. He was rumoured to have a son named D!ck, but we never could confirm it.

    Then I have worked with a Wei Wrong (he usually was), a Long Dong and a D!ck Wead.

    My last name is Green, and my joke growing up was that I was going to marry a Korean woman so that I could name my first child Gang.

    LMAO!!! Omg your whole post cracked me up. :laugh: So crazy wow...

    My little brother is called Colt . As in Colt 45 the gun! Hahaha.. Noo idea what made my mum call him that 10 years ago! I was only 9 years old soo i couldnt exactly say no for her to call her that lol! I was going to be called Summer but mum changed it to Sophia at the last minute when she gave birth, i would of prefered Summer soo much! And if i was a boy i was going to be called Levi.

    When i have children i would love to call my boy Clayton. I absolutley adore that name! But then it all depends if the bf likes it too! And if i have a girl, she will be callee Summer. Simply because i wasnt called that and i wish i was!!

    Hm yes I believe in straight forward names. I have Tom and Grace. Tom is Thomas and loves that he has many varieties in his name and is easy to spell. Life is had enough hy make it harder. My name is Kathleen, would be ok if I wa 80 or lived in Ireland.

    Out shopping in town with my daughter yesterday we heard a new name. A young mum told her toddler "Gyptian" sit down in his pushchair.

    Never heard that one before.

    There again Thursday I heard a Boy tell his Staffordshire Bulldodg called "LINDA" to sit down. :noway:

    Babies are getting weird names and dog's are paying the price lol.

    I copied this from another article I read.

    If you feel bad about your name (at all), stop now. In New Zealand, a kind judge has legally changed the name of a 9-year-old girl who had been living with the name Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii. Embarrassed by the name, she had asked friends to simply call her "K," which I can only assume stands for "Kill my parents, please."

    In citing other unfortunate names that had been blocked before they had a chance to become official, the judge listed Fish and Chips, Yeah Detroit, Keenan Got Lucy, and Sex Fruit. But among names that had gotten through? Number 16 Bus Shelter.
