And when I read the attendance, let me tell you, some of them get very upset when you mispronounce their names.

And then, of course, I have to ask them to spell their names sometimes, even when I've heard the name before. I've seen at least 4 variations of Uniqua ("Unique -- ah" or "Unique -- kwah")

And while searching for someone in the student directory, I noticed that there are a pair of twins, one boy and one girl, named Sha Meek and Sha Meeka. I am Not Making This Up.

Look at the names some of these nutty celebrities give their kids. Even the "conservative" Bruce Willis has 3 kids with Demi Moore with very odd names. Isn't one of them a girl named Scout??

Then there are names like Apple, and Pilot Inspektor. I think the latter one is the son of that "My name is Earl" guy. Are these people just idiots or what?

No kidding, and I always had to bite my tongue not to day, "Look, it's not my fault your Mother couldn't spell..."

one boy and one girl, named Sha Meek and Sha Meeka.

If the girl is Sha Meeka, the boy should be Sha Meekus.

We had African-American twins in school several years ago with exactly the same name. He went by the first name and she went by the middle name.
