This could be fun what are some of the funniest names you have heard out at triage?
I had a teenage mom that came in I asked what the newborns name was, she smiled and state "Sparkles". I kept a straight face and thought to myself what a loving mother to give her daughter a stripper name.
I have of Shithead Pronounced shathead, Asshole prounounced assouly
Lovie Butt
what are some good ones you have heard
I have seen two Sparkles, on the same day no less. I have also seen a Heavenleigh.
One time when I was in a bar with my friends (I was much younger then) I told some guy who was bothering me that my name was Genny-->short for Generic. I told him my parents wanted me to pick out my own name when I was an adult. My friends totally backed me up. He bought it hook, line and sinker. Ha ha, what an idiot.:rotfl:
A couple named their baby chlamydia- thinking it was just a pretty sounding name. Like a flower- poor kid not just for having a name like that but a couple of insanely stupid parents.
My cousin named her daughter Asia - which is pretty odd. I personally love the idea of naming kids what you want to name them but give them an option later on. Like instead of naming someone Debbie- name them deborah and call them debbie from the start. Options are important- speaking from someone who has a sister named Ginger- Virginia saved her a few times professionally. Hard to a Ginger or a suzie as seriously.

I've heard that Chlamydia story- It must be an urban legend. Asia is actually kind of pretty. I've also heard of Paris (hasn't everyone), Londyn, and America. My sister-in-laws sister named her daughter Liberty, Libby for short. Not bad. Better than ODESSA.
