    I worked in the insurance business.  A client's name was Latrine-  seriously, she was basically named "toilet."  I thought it was just a joke from Robinhood Men in Tights but it wasn't.

    “There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.”

    There was a guy in my sister's class navef Harvey Burger. Really, with the last name Burger, Shouldn't you skip Harvey, Wendy, etc?
    I know a new baby girl named Tenley. I'm sure the kids will be able to come up with lots of teasing material in there somewhere. But at least it's not jello.

    I know a Mike Hunt, an Iona Bell. My brother worked with a La-a (you pronounce the "dash", it's Ladasha, and god help anyone that mispronounced that!) A nurse when I gave birth to my youngest told me about a girl who named her baby Chlamydia, and no one could talk her out of it.

    Ugh that's is horrible! What the hell are people thinking when they name their child something obnoxious! Do they not realize that their child has to live with that name for the next 18 years until they are old enough for a legal name change??? Can you imagine the teasing that you are setting them up for? They would be forced to get a name change as an adult to be taken seriously! I mean would you hire someone that walked in and said my name is orangejello?

    My uncles ex married a man with the last name Case and they proceeded to have a son and named him Justin! So he is just-in-case. Not nearly as horrible as some others but still what the hell were they thinking!

    I just had a confession about this.  I hate one of my twins names.  It's Caliber.  My DH named him while I was in labor.  I was a little too busy to fight it.  HATE THIS NAME, don't you??

    My dad used to tell my sister that if she was a boy her name would've been Justin Other so all running together it would sound like Just another ___.

    My cousin and his gf were going to name their daughter Luna, my aunt was all upset. She was afraid kids would call her lunatic.

    There are all kinds of interesting names around here. There is a girl named Precious Diamond. A girl I went to school with has a son named King.

    It's like the joke where the brother-in-law names the boy/girl twins and the wife is afraid to ask what horrible names the jerk picked out and first they say the girl is 'Denise' and the wife is a bit relieved so she asked what did he name the boy? and they tell her 'Denephew'

    I believe we have someone up here named Dick Schott

    There are also a few Shitheads (pronounced Sha-theed) around here. Makes me laugh every time I see it. I mean, my kid is a shithead sometimes, but I don't think I'd have the balls to name her that.

    Orangejello or Lemonjello that I knew were class of 2001 or 2002 in Evansville, In. They were Friends with an ex, I checked they yearbook to make sure that was their real names, I thought it was a prank. Their last name was Cosby. Their mom was "off" and insisted Bill Cosby was their dad (her last name wasn't Cosby)

    I knew a guy named Shimshy, my dad had a coworker named Richard Fagg but he went by Dick. My sister's youngest son's name is Audley. When they were looking for names for their second son (3 boys, one girl: boy boy girl boy) and stumbled across Oddley and he started joking about naming one of their kinda that and then he seriously started liking it and bugged my sis until she let him use it as a middle name. As long as they spelled it different. On paper it looks good but it's still Audley.

    @deviltwinsmomma   I guess I will learn to accept it if you think it's cool.  Only because you're fucking awesome though...  I can't believe no one agreed that Caliber sucks.  LOL  When people ask and I say "Colten is this one and Caliber is this one" I get the oddest looks.  Oh ya,  Colten, like a Colt gun.  I can justify this one though because it was a horse before it was a gun!  hehehe....
