ROFLOL!!!!

Jen

too funny!!!! i went to high school with a guy named Richard Handler!!!! he did not have fun during high school, poor guy!!

I went to school with a girl named Cinnament Applegate. My cousins went to school with twins, Stormy Dawn and Misty Ray.

My sister dated a guy who's sister's name is Sunday Coffee.

Some people here just had a baby and named her Mary Grace Christmas, so she'll be Mary Christmas. (The second one I've known of!) The newscaster reported it and had the hardest time keeping a straight face...

My husband met this guy whose name was USA Navy...poor guy!!!hahaha

I worked with a lady a few years ago named Dorcus Grubb... She wore a name tag that said Tabitha.

Another lady who worked at the same place, had a daughter named Tomorrow. They call her Tommy.

My grandma (dad's mom) was named Violet Green. That never gave me pause until I was WELL into adulthood. I guess 'cause we just called her "grandma" the two-color name never registered as odd. And my mom's maiden name was Heiny - yep, heard all the "Heiny" jokes. Her dad's twin sister was named Imogene. Can you imagine going through life with people shortening it to "Ima"???

Went to school with a kid named Michael Angelo and a girl with first and middle name of Mona Lisa. Ima Hogg was a very wealthy philanthropist in Houston--check out Wikipedia. But I agree...what are some parents thinking?

My OB with my second pregnancy was Dr. Hyman. Nice. Her former medical partner, before retirement was Dr. Beaver. Dr. Beaver was actually the one who delivered my son because Dr. Hyman had just given birth the day before.

My DH's vasectomy doctor is named Richard Tapper.....he goes by Dick Tapper.

When I was in the Marines one of the guys I knew was trying to date a girl named Anya Couch. Still cracks me up.

I was suppose to go out with my friends one night but decided not to (this was years ago). They came over later laughing and told DH and I what happened. They were at the bar when a guy came up to hit on them. He asked them their names so they told him : Star, Ginger and Barbie. He got mad and said if you didn't want to tell me your real name you didn't have to give fake stripper names, and walked off in a huff. That was their real names.

My husband was in the Navy and there was a woman named Dixie Swallows. She was called Seaman Swallows all throughout basic training. He said everybody had to try hard and not snicker when her name was called out.

He also went to school with a girl named Linoleum Fleur.

OMG, these are so funny. When I was a kid, my pediatric dentist was named Dr. Beaver. I though that was pretty funny. A couple of years ago I worked with a man named Mr. Butte. We called him Mr. Butt, but he constantly corrected us to pronounce it as long "u" and long "a."

ROFL! I'm LOVIN this thread! Ok, so here's mine:
My middle school guidance counselor was Mr. Boner.
Yes. Really. Mr. Boner.

Ive been watching this thread and havent laughed this hard in ages! I worked in a trophy shop as a teenager. I had to engrave 2 trophies for twin brothers. Their names (thankfully) are not pronounced exactly like they are spelled. The names were Greenjello and Orangejello! I also know a girl named Nosmoking. Plus we have an optometrist in my town named Dr. Seymore!

adonisthegreek1 -- I went to a small farm school. The kind where whole families go to the same school. There was the Butt's family and the Hooker family. There was a kid named Rusty Rust (we made fun of him a little for it until we found out his real name was Kermit) There was also a guy named Dusty Wall.

My middle school principals name was William William Williams. Now why would someone do that to a child?

just had to add mine- my friend taught kindergarten and for TWO years in a row she had at least one boy named Shithead- pronounced shi-theed.
Love the pronunciation, not the spelling. Poor kid!

It's not so funny but more of a "come on". A friend of my dd's parents love Harley Davidson motorcycles. Their last name is Davison (close enough right) so they named her Harely. I just feel sorry for her.

And don't think parents don't plan it. Actors/actresses do it ALL the time & they need to think about their poor kid's future!

Diezel & Deniem (like clothing?)
Fifi Trixibell, Peaches & Pixie
Jermajesty
Kyd (come here kid poor thing how many people will be calling his name at a playground)
Moon Unit, dweezil,& diva Muffin
Moxie CrimeFighter
Pilot Inspektor
rocket, Racer, Rebel, & rogue
Poppy Honey & daisy Boo
Let's not forget Tallulah, Rumer & Scout

i don't kno why, but I love Tallulah.

My dad knew a urologist named Hugh Dick. We thought he was kidding until he showed us the listing in the phone book!

yeah, Tallulah isn't too bad, but some of the others....

My mom worked on an OB ward for a couple of years. Shithead was one of those that popped up!

Pinki, my dh picks up underpriviledged children for church on Wed night. He encountered an Orangejello & Lemonjello. Did they say "I'm going to name my child after what I'm eating when I go into labor."?

On a tangent....

My ex-friend named her kid Harry. People ALWAYS ask if she named him after Harry Potter.

She just looks at them like they're stupid (they are), and says, 'Um, no. Harry was twelve years old when the first book was released.'

and what about "Apple" yea Gweneth Paltrow named her daughter Apple, I still can't figure that one out, does anyone out there know why??

Way back when, as a child, I had a friend who's name was Crystal Heaven Leigh. I remeber always wanting a pretty name like hers and not the one my parents gave me...lol
