A few months back I had a pt, a younger millenial-aged kid, whose first name is a nickname for male genetalia and last name contains another slang term for member with -man on the end. I wish I was making that up.

audrey'smagic,

as w/ your anecdote about the Case family, I went to school with a girl whose last name was Court. Fortunately the seven children had 'normal' names, but their family joke was that they SHOULD have named them Motor, Tennis, Auto, then both Bocci + Basket would've had the middle name "Ball", of course; then there was also Small Claims and Juvenile. They came up with several other names they might have used, but I can't remember those.

They were a nice family with a great sense of humor.
