Is Japheth a name from the bible? Or something with a similar spellng? Awhile back, a set of parents named their baby this because it was biblical. Theyasked us how to PRONOUNCE it! Like, you named your baby a name you don't even kow how to pronounce?!

KRVRN,
Yes, Japheth is a name from the Bible- one of Noah's sons--But it could be worse- the other sons were Ham and Shem!

One of my co-workers swears they went to school with a Harold Richard Head. I don't think I need to point out the nickname possibilities.

My hubby does social security disability and he SWEARS that he PERSONALLY has seen people named Lemonjello and Orangejello (pronounced le-mohngello and or-ahngello). I don't know.

Urban myth Dennie. I have heard that one a million times.

Isn't there an old story about a hispanic lady who had a baby girl and saw "female" written on her baby girl's layette.......so she thought they had named it for her?? Female Hernandez. Pronounced "fehMallee

Yup, heard that one too.

I also had a teen mom who named her child Margarita......(sad).

I wanted to name my oldest that, because when she was concieved I was drinking, guess what ?
