The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
Hezekiah isn't THAT strange, it's an old Biblical name, it's just not one you hear much anymore, unless you're Amish or one of the Children of the Corn.
La-a on the other hand, that has me scratching my head.
Several years back there was a story about a New Zealand couple that wanted to name their son "4Real". The justification being that he was so beautiful that they couldn't believe he was for real, and kept asking each other "is he for real?", hence the stupid name. But the government registry wouldn't let them name the baby that, because it had a digit in it, so they named the baby "Superman". Which I think only proves they wanted attention and to give their baby some stupid name to express their own perceived originality. The 4Real thing, as tasteless and dumb as I thought it was, at least had a reason behind it.
To me there is no good reason to give children these crazy names. Parents want to express themselves or whatever, but these people are going to have to live with that name. Put your own ego aside and don't try to freestyle and get too crazy with kids names. I'm not saying everybody has to name their kid John and Bill, but there has to be a middle ground between that and 4Real, La-a or Superman.
"See a broad to get dat booty yak 'em, leg 'er down, a smack 'em yak 'em!"

Did I ever share the story about when my Christmas card was hanging up in the emergency department break room, and two of the new nurses were looking at it and saw that it was signed my name, Mr. Unlost's, "and Seamus, Sailor and Sweet Pea."
So one of the new nurses turns to the other one and says, "I didn't know Unlost had kids."
It's one thing to think that I'd name a son Seamus (a name I love, and if I'd had a son, that would be his name... but this however was a black Labrador Retriever).
It's another to think I'd name a kid Sailor (my yellow Lab).
But honestly _ a daughter named Sweet Pea?!?!? (My hound.)
Le (as the french say it) mon (as a jamaican would say it)
Je (as the french would say it) low (say it as it sounds)
Yes...for real.
There is a singer named Peter Lemongello (pronounced Lemon Jello). I've never heard any of his music, but it was one of the aliases that Fletch used in "Fletch Lives".

You continually astonish me with the breadth and depth of your knowledge. You really do.
So, is your first name really Satan's? (What on earth were Mr. and Mrs. Futon thinking...)

I had a student with this name. Either they really loved Fletch, Peter Lemongello or really thought it was a cool name.

I'm afraid my name is nowhere near as cool as Satan's Futon, my name is a very common one. And the "breadth and depth" of my knowledge is usually confined to useless tidbits like Irwin Fletchers various aliases and football stats.

What ever I name my kid, I'm not going to curse it by giving a normal name my own unique spelling. I feel sorry for people that have to spend their entire lives correcting people on how their name is spelled because their parents were trying to by unique.
If you want your kids name to be unique, name it D'Brickashaw.

My fiance's friend is an ER nurse and that was the name of one of her patients. No joke.
That's my brother's name actually.
it appears to be my nephew's, that i didn't know about, name as well.

And truthfully, there were even weirder names than that.
