C WORD

I had a co-worker who named his newborn girl LaTrocious. Funny thing is that neither he or his wife knew the word atrocious.

So the little girl already has a built in stripper name!

My name is *%#&ing Mike. The most common name in the world this side of Mohamed. Sometimes I hate that, but at times it's nice.

My mother is a secretary at an elementary school. She always tells stories about the names of these young kids. One girl is named Tequila Sun. Can't make that %#%* up.

No lie, I know a guy who named his son "Abcde" pronounced Ab-c-de. And another I saw at a drive up fast food place "Originall".

Gawd's honest truth here.
My sister used to be in OB-GYN work at a Birmingham hospital.
They were always getting these teen aged "mothers" in for work.
Once a 13-year-old gave birth.
My sister had worked with the kid on several occassions and found out she had delivered when sis was not working or something.
She went by to see the girl and when she asked what she named the kid my sister was told "They already named her."
When sis inquired as to just whom this "they" was she was told "the hospital" had named the baby girl.
My sister, confused at this point, asked about that and the girl said she saw the name on a piece of paper......
The "name" she saw on the paper were "Suh-phyllis.... only it was spelled "Syphillis."
The girl liked it and stuck the baby with it.
Sis swears this is true.
Sis swears this is true.

Like my name but can't sing :(

Yeaaaaa. That's not it. We live about an hour from Detroit. Everyone around here has pretty much normal names. But then again, pretty much everyone around here not black.

When my wife was a nurse in Detroit, she heard about a young mother who named her daughter after a word she heard the doctor say just after the birth - Placenta.
Wife swears this is true.

Here in New Zealand some people wanted to call their baby a certain number. I can't remmember the number, not 007 or anything like that, and the Birth registry people said no and that it had to at least start with a letter.

Whatever you do, do NOT give your child a stupid name that is going to earn him crap in school! If you name your kid "Norman" then you should have a good reason, and you should plan on home-schooling your child. I caught so much crap in school because of my silly stupid NAME!

YES. I was given a silly name. I'm named after my father, which was a mistake. Norman is a stupid name, and it conjures images of a geek with thick glasses, or a 400 pound Boston bar fixture; I am NEITHER. I have perfect vision and it has been certified by the FAA via machine.

I'm going to change my name. I was supposed to be Michael Joseph according to my mother, but my birth was anything but successful; I was a little too small at birth since I was very premature, and I spent the first week of my life in an incubator. Mom was in bad shape, and dad was presented with the birth certificate form for his newborn baby boy.

He filled his own name on the form.

My mother didn't speak to him for 3 weeks~

She almost filed for a divorce. In the end they worked everything out, and guess what? Mom got a whole house of Ethan Allen furniture a year later. Funny how that works~

Folks, please listen to me. Children are extremely cruel- they are little more than wild animals. If you give your child a name that will bring him or her ridicule, then realize that it isn't YOU that has to deal with the crap...it is your child.

M-

my friend's cousin named their kid "Jeter." Big Yankee fans, apparently. I thought that was kinda lame. It'll be funny if he grows up to be a Red Sox fan. Ha ha.

Good freinds of ours named their son after his grandfather- Renwick.

I've got a buddy who's wife wanted to name their first daughter "Pageen". She's got a buch of strange names in her family. Fortunately, he won that argument.

We live in a relatively small, somewhat rural town.
Couldn't believe this one: "Alec Zander" He's in our daughter's kindergarten class.
Honestly, get a clue!!!
There are others in the school, but thankfully - I cannot think of them at the moment.

In boot camp we had a - (Benjamin) 'Ben Dover.'
Some parents are just too cruel.

Charity Hospital in NOLA, 1975- Mom has twin girls- names them Salmonella and Shigella.

I call the grandson (who is in utero ) Spawn, I kinda have a feeling that one may follow him.

How 'bout the Rhea sisters-
Gonnah and Dia

I dated a girl many moons ago. She had a cousin and their last name was Airsmith. So the chick named her son Steven Taylor, (Steven Taylor Airsmith)

How about the parents of the guy who just won the Indy 300 in Sao Paulo?
