Location: Midwest | Hmm, apparently it would star out these peoples' proper names here on BHW!
Another strange story. A friend of mine was an RN working the floor at a children's hospital. A girl was there giving birth- she was 12-13 years old. She wanted to name her child a name of a very private female body part (rhymes with Dolores), because she thought it was "a pretty word". So the nurses had to explain to her what the word actually meant, and why this was not a good name for her child.

Here's one for you, I worked for a time on a project at work that involved reviewing docs that had to be submitted by taxpayers to prove their relationship to children claimed to get a free tax credit (free money essentially). One child was named "Doctor Martin Luther King" and then another couple of names behind that..... |

| I used to work for a campaign company and we would have signature gatherers (those annoying guys who stand outside of Wal-Mart and ask if you want to sign to change legislature) go out and petition. One of the guys decided he was going to Compton/Watts. (The area where rappers Snoop Dogg or Dr. Dre grew up.) One name read:
Sh-trice (pronounced Chatrice) -the way I see it is she's only missing one letter from having an accident after eating Chinese food
There were two twins who signed:
Lem'Onjello (pronounced Lem On Jello with emphasis on the "On") and his brother Or'Ongejello (Or On Jello) Really??

Well Skiatook is a pretty fancy named town unlike Sperry- so it only makes sense that we have fancy named children!
I only learned of them while selling food to the district and they were going over the government paid lunch meals and these were two of the names enrolled that we were discussing. |

Location: Vicksburg MS | I work at a lease to own type of company and when you don't make your payments and you won't answer your phone, we proceed to call your references.
My assistant pointed to her screen one day and asked,"How do I pronounce that name?"
I looked over at her screen and after processing what I saw, burst out laughing, then suggested she just ask for Ms Epps.
The name? Fellatia
I then had to explain to the 20 yr old assistant why that was so funny. |
