Actually have seen a child named Candida, and one named Va-Gina (pronounced like Regina but NOT) --once saw one in the ED First name Too, middle name Precious.....our general thinking in the rural EDs was, if you have to look at your kids' Medicaid cards to see how to spell their names, it's just a crying shame. There are so many folks who put every syllable they can think of in front of "inequa" - a simpler example would be Shanequa, Janequa, etc, etc, etc. Had a coworker one time who wanted to name her next child "Nokia" after the phone company because she thought it sounded pretty. Man on the area news goes by last name of "Stringfellow" and there (I SWEAR THIS IS TRUE) is a gynecologist in an area town named Dr. Biggerstaff..... seems to me he might have gone into the wrong field? Maybe not, huh? :roll :roll :roll

Okay,

I was in grade school with a kid named Ronnie Butz- not so bad, except his dads name was Harry.

Harry Butz.

Poor kid, I never knew if he grew up okay after getting crap for that for who knows how long.

My middle name is Wray, which is a little town near the Kansas/Colorado border. My parents deny that there is a story behind it, but I DONT THINK SO!!!!!!

There is a daily feature on one of the radio shows here "Bad Baby Name of the day". I have heard some terrible ones on it.
