My grand-father told me that he met a woman named Placenta. He asked her how her given name came about. She told him that when her Russian immigrant mother was giving birth to her, the doctor said, "Here comes placenta." And the mother named her daughter Placenta.
I have a girlfriend that worked for welfare..she had a client with a little girl named Female (pronounced famially by mom)
My girlfriend asked her how her little girl got such an "unusual name"
Mom said "I do no know..when they mailed me the Birth Certificate that is what the doctor named her"
