I actually went to school with an Edward E. Ward (we presented him with the prestigious "Edward E. Ward Award" at graduation) and a Jennifer Eric (Jenn + Eric = "Generic").

Dumb parents.

Another one I can't stand is parents who name their kids "cute" sounding baby names. Unfortunately those cute little babies eventually grow up into adults who are going to try to make it in the hard real world. Tough to do when you're named "Buffy" or "Pebbles" or "Chip" or "Muffy" or "Candi". Unless they're going to be in porn.

I loathe the names "Trevor" and "Tyler" too. Jee-zus Tapdancing Christ are these parents trying to turn their kids gay and make them start "boy bands"?

I've posted before about some of the crazy names of people I've known (Penny Nichols, Barry Hatchett, etc). Working in movies and TV, we do police stations, hospitals, etc and have to fill out the "dry erase boards' for set dressing (patient lists, detectives cases). Some of the names Phil McCracken, Hugh Jass, Hugh Jorgen, Dick Fitzwell, Skip Towne, Dick Gazinya, Seymour Kooch, Betty Nailzer, etc. Look for them in the background on your favorite show.

Mother always used to complain to her friends that she had a throughly a$$ backwards son that just couldn't do anything right. Even at Two years old Mother wanted me to read Nizesche and if I couldn't explain the dialectic to her at dinner she would smack me across the head saying "Get your facts straight boy." So ya might say I learned real early that ya better learn to tap dance real fast or get your noggin smacked. Anyway one day Mother just started calling me TABS for short.

We have some interesting nick names at work from the old days. One guy is 'pecker'. At a company function my boss went to introduce 'pecker' and family to his wife when he realized he didn't know his real name.

Pecker took the lead and introduced himself as 'pecker', his wife as 'mrs pecker', his son as 'little pecker', and his daughter as 'pecker less'.

True story.

School must be difficult, but then ( for some) comes basic training and the
oh-so-kind-and-caring ...DRILL INSTRUCTORS!

We had a guy in boot camp named - Ben (Benjamin) Dover.

________________

Not name related but: one guy had a skin condition. It caused blotchy, pale/pinkish patches on his face/arms/body.

One D.I. quickly pronounced him; " Private Pinto" !
