If they have a kid, I hope they don’t name it Party.

[RJL]

Two from my school days: Randi Ball and Patty Cake.

Years ago I worked with a girl whose parents named their first two daughters Faith and Hope. The third child was a boy, so they named him Charlie.

I know someone whose last name is Davidson and they named their daughter Harley.

I am sick of parents giving their kids those tiresome names like Madison...that is an avernue, not a girl’s name. Also, “surnames” as first names, like Dylan and Tyler. If your family has no family names like Tyler and Dylan, it is idiotic to use those names. I say go with strong names, usually biblical like Thomas, Michael, John, James, or something not created like LaShawna or Taniqua.

I remember when people went through the craze of naming their kids LaShea and Shantane, and versions of that.

Her name was Ima Hogg. Her father was governor of TX.

My uncle’s best friend was Harry Pitts. I’m not joking.

OK, I give. I’m not from Rio Lindo and I’m still clueless.

My 7th grade math teacher - Ben Gay.

My 9th grade gym teacher - Harold Ball.

Seeing that bumper sticker and “Dick” is often used for Richard reminds me of a really bad name.

The family name was:

Stroker.

>>>OK, I give. I’m not from Rio Lindo and I’m still clueless.

Let’s break it int sort of phonetic syllables...

As in stupid....I bet you get it now. It’s like the blond girl that sat on a fan....Disaster....

You are thinking of Ima Hogg. She was/is the daughter of the very wealthy Hogg family of Texas.

Lymon Wymon
Pickles Hargrave
Pickles Hargrave Jr.

All real names. Pickles Jr. used to write letters to the Cape Cod Times back in the day.

I had a teacher in grade school whos name was Bunny (redacted). Anyway, she married a guy who's last name was Lapin. Lapin is the the French word for rabbit. So technically her married name was "Bunny Rabbit!"

I did once meet a woman named Candice Grahm... "Candy Grahm!"

I visited with a guy named Storme Winter yesterday. He has a Motor Cycle machine shop. Louie Wiser lived next door to us in the late 50 and they named their first son Louie Wiser Jr. Yep, called him Bud. We have a customer named Dusty Rhodes. He is a Cat Skinner and works in logging...

Meanwhile in the Mother Country:

Sir Peter’s review was ordered by Ed Balls, the Children’s Secretary, last July in his first act after taking over the schools portfolio.

[Kozak]

My sister works as a registration clerk in an ER. She showed me a xerox of the medicaid card for one family she couldn’t believe.

The last name was the name of a major Auto manufacturer .

The kids were: Lincoln, Mercedes, Porsche and the twins, Corvette and Chevette.

Can’t you just here it, “Mom liked you better, she named you after a hot car and me after a POS”.

When I was active duty Air Force in the 80’s, I remember reading in AF Times about a Sgt. who had triplets, three boys, and he named them MAC, SAC, and TAC (acronyms for Military Airlift Command, Stratigic Air Command & Tactical Air Command at the time). Yikes !

In high school many years ago, I played against one of Mr. and Mrs. Wall’s kids. Yep. His legal first name was Brick.
[yes he was]
