I fear doing OB Clinicals this semester. I don't know if I can handle the names. I'd get in trouble for laughing. I'm glad my husband and I picked some reasonable names for our *hopefully soon to be* kids.

I have a grandaughter named India and one named Unique -they are beautiful children and have no teasing problems. I like their names

Ok, my husband is a huge Dallas football and basketball fan. He wants to name our son (if we ever have one) Dallas. Is that weird?

Not as "interesting" as some of the ones I've read, but my sister in law, her parents couldn't decide on a name in time so her birth certificate reads "Infant" as her first name.

My neighbor had a dog named Dee-O-Gee; when asked why he named him that, he said it was because that's what he was: a D-O-G (DOG)!!!

In South Africa we have many people with names such as Gift, Precious, Freedom, Patience, etc. this is because the parents have translated it directly from their home languages into English. I've worked with a nurse aid named Matron and as we still frequently use the term to refer to our Nursing Managers in SA you can see her mom's aspirations for her, but the most unfortunate name must belong to the paediatric surgeon I worked with as a first year student......Dr BUTCHER.

We have a frequent flyer family with the little girl named "Amiracle." Most of the names I see I swear are made up because I have never seen any of them in a baby name book! Of course I always slaughter the pronunciation and get corrected!
