We have a poor baby by the name of "Unique". Mom said she had a middle name that she wanted to put on the birth certificate (hopefully too late). "Destiny" so she is Unique Destiny. As far as I can see, her destiny is to have a baby when she is in her teens, and that's not unique!
We were talking about strange names (and mothers). Who could name a child Stephanie but spell it "Steffenknee". I'm sure that child has been teased.
We also have had twin girls Stormy and Breezy, and their temperaments went with the names.
My old job was a bill collector and I had to ask for a Harry Butts.
I even called for a Jesus and pronouced it Gee-sus...the lady laughed at me and said Jesus had died and went to heaven. She then corrected me on the proper pronunciation of "Hay-Seus".
I have heard of a Star Bright.
My cousin named her daughter Asia.
My boyfriend works with a Richard (Dick) Cox.
My Grandpa's name is Burton, the other is Burnise.
My Grandma's name is Valora.
My mom's name is Trudy.

ShandyLynn, I dunno, I guess it's just tradition. I like it.
Being both Roman Catholic AND British, I've got a LOT of names! And so do my daughters.
I also gave my maiden name to both my daughters. I know I have brothers with sons to carry on the name, but I don't care. They only go by their first names of course. But *I* know it's there.
Love
