We had a Mom that named her child Toyota Camry. No joke. We also had an Asian Mom (who did not speak English) that wanted to name her daughter lady parts. When our female OB, who is very straight foward, found out she went in and told the Mom she can not name her child that!

While in nursing school (almost 14 years ago) we did our OB clinicals at the local state hospital. A mother delivered a set of healthy twins and she named them: O'rangejello and L'emonjello.

My husband's aunt is a teacher and she had a set of twins in her class named the same thing. Mom said she craved lemon and orange jello while she was pregnant and that's why she named them that. :chuckle

Used to keep a "strange names" list in the department. I've seen Kelly Greene, Snow White, Cash Money. One teenaged girl had undiagnosed twin boys, she had decided that if she had a boy, she wanted him to be addressed as "Sir", so she had chosen to name a boy child "Sir Walter". But she had two boys, so she named them Sir Walter and Sir Valter.

I think everyone has "heard" of someone named Lemonjello and Orangejello. Where I work now, one of the SCN nurses swears we had a set of twins named that several years ago. Five years ago, when I worked in Texas, there was supposedly another set of twins with the same name. When I was stationed in San Diego in the Navy 12 years ago, there was talk about a set there too. Makes you wonder about an urban legend....... :coollook:

This is no urban legend, but, I wish it was fror the child's sake...

As a labor and delivery nurse I have seen the name Heaven quite a bit lately. I have known of two little girls named Heaven Nevaeh (pronounced Neh Vay Uh) and a set of twins named Heaven and Neveah. Neveah is Heaven spelled backwards!

I've seen a few Neveahs too. It's funny, because the parents think they're the first ones to think of it.

Strangest names I've seen: Abcde (pronounced "absidy") for a girl. With mom's second baby we asked her if she was going to name her fghij.

Wolfgang Casket for a baby boy....I think the social worker talked this mother out of that one before discharge though.

Freedom V-Ray for a baby girl...right after Sept 11.

The wolfgang part reminded me, knew a boy called Marcell Wolfgang McDougall! :eek:
