Sadrah Palin, whom many conservatives revere, gave all of her kids weird names.

It’s just a race to see who can blurt out the most ridiculous name they can think of.

My big burly mechanics name is “Sumshine”. His parents were hippies. He has no problem with it.

Lol. That was intentional.

Wonder how many English names translate to some goofy name in their language.

Eclipse is the name of a very famous thoroughbred.

The modern day eclipse awards (similar to the Oscars) are held every winter.
