Queen Latifa. She's done ok. Oprah. What the heck kinda' name is that? But they are the exception.

Then again, there's the crazy white folk who name their kid Apple.

When Oprah was named as a baby, her family mispelled her name. In the Bible there is the name Orpah and you can find it in Ruth Chapter 1. But, Oprah's family was illiterate, and they made a mistake in spelling.

Interestingly enough, there is another woman named Oprah... somewhere in the US. Oprah Winfrey has met with her. Sharing that unusual name is a novelty.
