who knows some weird names that "truly" exist, aka people were really named like that.
I start with Argwumpel, it is one of the least used names in holland, which means at least one person carries it, the poor child.

Wasn't there this story about some parents naming their kid "4real".
So if you don't know his name:
"Hey, are you 4real?" :laugh4:
I heard this rumor that Chinese parents were naming their children 'Olympic games'. No article to back that up, but it's a pretty funny rumor.
:balloon2:
How about the football teamOdd Grenland, or the first name Odd, or perhaps Even?
So which of these are you? :grin2:
sorry I meant names for persons, surnames or prenoms...
For the Dutch speaking folks:
Renaat Vleessalaat
Bo Terham
A friend of mine who is a pediatric oncologist sends me regular updates on the most absurd names he comes across. Here are my favorites:
Abcde (pronounced Ahb-sihd-dee)
Twins named Lemonjello and Orangejello - named after the mother's favorite foods while pregnant
Meconium - The mother heard the doctors using this term in the hospital and thought it sounded nice.
abcde :O omg how not creative can u be :P
luckily for meconium, barely anyone knows :P
I just remembered this article from last month, which includes the following winners:
Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii
Sex Fruit
Keenan Got Lucy
Yeah Detroit
Number 16 Bus Shelter
Violence
Midnight Chardonnay
Benson and Hedges (twins)
Stallion
Twisty Poi
Fat Boy
Cinderella Beauty Blossom
Fish and Chips (twins)
talula aint that bad... but *** comes next? all those parents must have really hated their kids and been really drugged or drunk!
That one is from the book Freakonomics, which has an entire chapter about weird baby names, including several that I cannot reprint in the Frontroom. I'll just say that one of them is supposed to be pronounced "shut-HEED."Quote:

My wife told me she heard a story of a girl who named her newborn Placenta. The girl must have thought it either sounded pretty or the drugs from the delivery had not warn off...
"Crystal Peak"
I felt like vomitting every time her name was said...
starquisha
:brood:
Yeah that Talula does the hula was pretty funny.
Twisty poi is also a funny one when you realkise that a "poi" is a type of "ball" on a legth of rope that is used by ladies in traditional Maori dances or Kapahaka.
I went to school with a guy named Justin Dick and the captain of my cricket team named his child Cameron. Thus with the last name Hill he become Cameron Hill or the shorten version Cam - Hill.
Martok will be proud....

In the future, I want to name my kid
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
and see how he enjoys living through life with that name. :tongueg:
It's a little strange, but if I had a daughter I would seriously consider naming her Lacrimosa.
My first name isn't very common these days but still normal, Steven, how ever my second name is very odd: Bucknell, I found out some things about it
It ryhmes with nothing at all (although it has 2 syllables so you could by cheap and just have it rhyme with at least one of the syllables (Steven ******* smells)) (Im not sure about this fact so correct me if you wish)
Theres a whole geneaolgy forum of Bucknells
Some time ago I looked up what the name meant, It meant a hill of sorts, and steven means crown, and who wears a crown? a King, So...
King of the hill! :crown:
in what language does steven means crown? latin? greek?
besides not only kings wear crowns, maybe you are the Queen of the Hill?
sadist :PQuote:

Once I heard of Onesimo, which means Eleventh in Spanish.
My son will be Klondike. The greatest name ever.
(this guys brother: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myles_O%27Donnell)
Dweezil wil be my oldest.
Edit: My second will be called Moon unit of course.
mine will be called Zwarharfarhar (pronounced as Swahafaha) and Skull Barbarian
A real one: Peter Selie (only funny for those of us who know Dutch though)
I'm considering calling my son as Bartix xD doesn't it sounds cool?
Why then make his second name Ray and give him the title 'of Death'. That would be nice. You should call you second Kathafraktix, ranix or abokassix.
Upon having my male heir I shall name him Pilot Inspector :idea2: Barring of course my wife's decision.
Ornethal James. Ornethal = varient of Oren = pine tree.
The guy shortened it to" O.J." as a boy. Nowadays we know him as OJ Simpson, famous on football fields, court rooms, and TV.

In my town there is a lawyer surnamed "Black Trouble".
