There was a guy in my high school named Harry with an unfortunate last name "Butte" This made him Harry Butte

[FeliciaCat]

Too Funny!

I once saw a routine by a black comedian, can't remember his name, who did a routine on black folks naming their kids silly names that sound like car models. It was priceless.

[N. Theknow]

My Dad knew this guy:

Let us look at 5/8 Smith, a respected citizen of Pearson, Georgia. 5/8 is a peson of some prominence in Pearson, being a member of the City Council, owner of a jewelry store, owner of a farm, and operator of a plant which produces concrete blocks.

He was born in Dupont, Georgia, in 1912, the son of a man named Frank Smith who was fed up with being mistaken for other men named Frank Smith (there were five other Frank Smiths in Dupont alone).

When his son was born, Frank Smith sat down and considered the problem, thought of all the confusions and embarrassments he had suffered because of his name, and the more he thought about it, the more determined he became that his son should have a first name the like of which no other mortal on earth possessed.

In the end he chose 5/8. Not Five-Eighths, spelled out, but 5/8 Smith.

In the interests of accuracy it must be reported that while everyone else calls him 5/8, and while he gets his mail in that name and pays his taxes as 5/8 Smith, his wife calls him Willie

[I'm ALL Right!]

There are two sisters with the last name of HOGG...parents named them IMA and URA. Tis' true. Who would do that to their child?

[AF_Blue]

Big 'M', little 'organ'.

Couldn't resist. ;->

[Ol' Sox]

Mine was Dr. Proffit. Go figure. :)

Growing up, my dentist was named diMendo.

[VermiciousKnid]

The name of the doctor who delivered my into my mother's arms was named Dr. Edwin Kiss (deceased). I think that's a nice name for an OB/GYN. Romantic.

I knew a guy named "Harry Cox."

I knew a guy named "Harry Cox."

There is an actual gynocologist in Florida named Harry Bush.

The fact your Ob/Gyn is deceased is romantic?

(shrugs)

[VermiciousKnid]

LOL, no Laz...his NAME was romantic. And he wasn't MY OB/GYN, he was Mom's.

Regards,


PS: We chose nice normal names for our kids...William Charles and John David.

What is your opinion of Tanner for a boy?

My two cents: absolutely not. "Tanner" sounds like a character from a soap opera. "Tanner" isn't as bad as "Brick" or "Destiny" or "Chapparral" or "Rowdy", but Lord knows it's not good.

There are lots of good "T" names: Thomas, Theodore, even Tiberius -- but not "Tanner". That name screams "trailer park" at the top of its lungs.

[DoctorMichael]

Here's a good one: "River Phoenix"

[Hank Rearden]

The more ridiculous the names, the more dire the condition of the culture.

Yep. Remember the stupid name of that kid whose idiot granny got whacked by the rollercoaster last week?

D'Kota.

It just screams "brilliant family", doesn't it?

[Fraulein]

I think Ann (Anne) is a lovely name

Thank you! :)

What about Anfrony Hardaway. His aunt had no front teeth and could not say Anthony. So the name stuck.

And what about the guy who had his name legally changed. His name change was from Bill to Heywood. His last name he changed to Jablowme.

True story.

[A_perfect_lady]

I'm glad that didn't happen to me. If it did, I'd be named either "Chevy Nova" or "Pabst Blue Ribbon"

Hi, I'm Buick Harvey Wallbanger. Nice to meetcha.

[rabidralph]

Hmmm, Severa Virginia doesn't sound too good either.

Throatwarbler Mangrove for a boy.

Heh. I know a couple, personally (this is not a friend of a friend story), her last name is Jolly, his is Burger, they are expecting in three months and bully their relatives with the threat of naming their child Sporky Lee Jolly-Burger. I think they're just kidding.... I think...
