What's the weirdest baby name?

Hi, I was wondering about some of those weird names that you've probably encountered in L&D and PP. I remember when I had my maternity rotation a couple of weeks ago, one of the nurses said she remembers a patient that named her child Placenta. I couldn't believe it that some child has to live his life named after disgusting afterbirth!

Mary - and the surname was Virgin. True, true, I swear it's true.

Also, first name Corn, surname was Shuckk. I swear to God above that his family were moonshiners.

I have worked with people named Pharoah, Joseph, and Potiphar. On the same job!

Now all I need is to meet a Sonny, Fredo, and Connie. Get it?

I would have to have my name changed to dickson or something. That is terrible. I feel sorry for people with those kind of names that make people snicker even though I am guilty of snickering. It is totally juvenile but I cant help but chuckle when I hear of someone with the last name Butz or Buttigan--real names--I have heard both.:rotfl:

How about Joey Buttafuco? :uhoh3:

NOOOO WAY!

Went to school with a "Tomorrow". I asked her how she got her name...her parents were called over the telephone for the baby's name as she was discharged without a name. When the lady called, her mother said "Can we just name her tomorrow?" When they learned of the error they liked the sound of it and it stayed that way.
