Meconium was the oddest one that I've heard!

I can actually verify at least one of these. My mom had a friend that was an EMT who was called out to a house where an accident involving twin

Boys. When he asked the mother what the kids names were "orangelo & chereegelo". The EMT asked the mother how she spelled it as he had no idea. She responded "it's just like orangejello & cherryjello. I heard this story from the MET so it seems likely to be true.

Well at least her name wasn't Dr. Swallow...

Another one is friend of mine. She's been called Kara all 23 years of her life, but when she went to get her birth certificate at 18, she found out her parents never registered her name, so legally she was"baby girl". Apparently not an uncommon occurrence around here

It happens sometimes despite the best of intentions. The pregnancy did not go smoothly because my mom was so ill, she lost weight. At 29 weeks, she delivered a set of conjoined twin boys, then delivered me. This was over a three day period. The boys lived only a few hours, but since they had already decided on "boy" names, they were buried as Charles Everett and Christian Peter. My parents had not been able to agree on any "girl" names. Two weeks later, after I was finally discharged, the hospital said I must have a name now! They finally decided on Katherine plus my mom's maiden name. When I wanted to apply for a passport in my teens, I sent for a copy of my birth certificate

and discovered that it still was for "Baby Girl _____."

It does happen sometimes.
