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!

While student teaching, a friend of mine taught a little boy in kindergarten named Pimperitis (inflammation of a pimp?!?). They had to call him Kevin at school because his name wasn't appropriate for the classroom.

After high school I worked in a payroll office for a few months. We had a "Sweetie" (40 year-old male with 8 or 10 dependents) and an "Angel" (who wasn't--well, maybe when she was a baby)

Okay, the lady who was in the room with me when I had my older daughter named her son Country Joe.

My hubby does social security disability and he SWEARS that he PERSONALLY has seen people named Lemonjello and Orangejello (pronounced le-mohngello and or-ahngello). I don't know.

My daughter has a friend named Orion. All I can say is that his parents were way cooler than we were!

Oh! And I took care of a lady in her 80's whose name was Lola Dimples. Can you imagine? I told her she must have been the cutest baby in the world to have been named that!!!

My managers name was Giri, and for those who couldn't pronounce it, said Kumar. What's so hard about Giri?
