I knew a guy whose father's name was Claris Orilla Mills. Claris had a sister named Eppie Lelola Mills. I also personally knew a Jimmy Othas Watkins.

I would have posted earlier but I spent 15 minutes laughing over the Nimrod Buber. That one just killed me. I've still got tears in my eyes and my face hurts from laughing!

Replying to my own post, but a couple of other names came to me. A lot of Alaska natives out in the villages take "Christian names" but many of them end up with odd combinations of what we'd consider first names. When I went to high school, there was named Joe Pete. One of the schools we used to wrestle against had a native named Willie Hooch.

I also knew a guy in the service named Joe Bob Ringer. He could sing country music and play the guitar. Why he never went to Nashville is beyond me.
