Swear to the big person up above, Oprah did a show on "odd names" many years ago and I remember some of them.

One was a guy named Harry Pitts. There were two twin women, Regina and lady parts.

Question, why is Regina so odd? Isn't it Latin for queen (salve Regina!) It's one I've certainly heard of before, but, then, I read lots of old British Lit (grin).

I don't think it was Regina the poster was concerned about. Just pointing out how it rhymed with her twin's *lovely* name.

Yes that was her married name....but I would have to tell my husband, sorry I am NOT being Anita Dick for the rest of my life! I'll keep my maiden name! The baby's name was Zack Dick. UGH. Nothing goes with that name!

That is just absolutely pathetic. What in the world was that baby's mother thinking with anyway???

Not HER brains, apparently.

uh oh, strike that, I didn't say that. lol

Maybe I misread your post...maybe that was her married name, Nevertheless, i think I'd change my first name if that was what I had to live with.

Before i was in the medical field, I worked in a grocery store as a checker, and had a woman sign her check "merry christmas", I felt like a fool when I told her she had to put her real name down.

There was a boy who lived down the road from me as a child that was named chris cross

A friend of mine named her baby girl Sapporiah Catherine (I still havent figured that one out)

A patient of mine was named Holly Wood

There is a dentist here named Harry Dickey.

a student i was helping train was named richard (or nickname Dick) Head

I also had a patient named Casseiopiea

I have heard of a girl name Female, because her mother thought the hospital had NAMED her baby! Anyway, it is pronounced Fah-malia.

I have also read in the paper a baby named Precious Pearl.

And a child named Yo'majesty was admitted to the hospital last summer!

What were these parents thinking??
