Nothing tops hearing the names Porche, Mercedes and Bentley being called out at the dentists!

Mercedes (the car) was named after a girl. So it was (and still is) a 'proper' female name before being a car name. Porche - do you mean Portia or Porsche like the car?

Again a quite common name amongst spanish speaking people.

That's not crazy... In Mexico and Latin America is a common name like Maria...
As for you in US is John and in Alberta, CAN is Ethan.

My friend's sister's acquaintance or something from college was named Le-Ah
Pronounced: Le-dash-uh

Also my mom's ex's cousin down the line named his kid Fudgie. I don't think it was a nickname either...

One of the male nurses at the hospital where my wife had our baby was named Handsome. I chuckled and said something like, "cool, but what's your real name?" and he looked at me with no expression on his face and said, "It's Handsome."

:oops:

I guess my post was misleading....I wasn't meaning the name was odd at all....only that they other kids thought it was strange for him to be named Jesus

I went to school with a girl named Precious...trust me...precious she was not
Knew an old man named Costly

I once counseled a girl who named her baby, de javu! Yep, that had its own stuff to counsel.

If you really wanted to name your kid that why wouldn't you just name them Ledashah instead of Le-ah?

I can't believe in 3 pages of this thread, nobody has made reference to George wanting to call his child "7".

let's not forget the shitheads that name their kid 'espn' :roll:

Yellow Ledbelly

And then he tried to get that couple to use Soda instead of 7

ZiggyStar

I know someone who called their kid Jean-Luc. :?

Not a baby name but my friend had a work accident and had to go to hospital....the doctor came in and introduced himself as "Dr Hack"....and then proceeded to tell my friend that he had to get his finger amputated! haha Bad name for a surgeon!

I am a teacher and get the pleasure of seeing/hearing some very strange names. Let's see, we have a Silver, Virgin, Luvie, Turki (pronounced turkey), Delorean (yup, like the car), and Egemen. Those are off the top of my head and are the actual names, not nicknames. I grew up thinking my name (Autumn) was bad, I have since grown to love it.
