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 in nursing school I did a rotation at a Peds Clinic at UK. These names are unbelievable!!

Shithead (pronounced Sh-theed)

Placenta

Chlamydia

Lemon & Orange Jello (twins)

Infamous Pimpin Johnson

WOW some people should never reproduce!:lol2:

Apostacles. No idea if I spelled that right. According to the parents it's Greek for Apostle and is pronounced ah-poss-tah-cleez. The parents had such nice, normal names too. Apostrophe is the nicest nickname that kid will be teased with growing up.

Earlier today I visited the Missouri History Museum, and one of the main exhibits highlights the 1904 World's Fair, held in St. Louis. I learned a lot from this cool (and FREE!) museum situated in Forest Park, but the most disturbing fact?

A baby girl was born in a tent during preparations at the fair. (That's bad enough, right?)

And her name?

Louisiana Purchase O'Leary. She lived to be 100.

I really have to wonder about naming a child "Pandora". The other names--well, some of them might look strange on the law firm door, but otherwise they're livable withable.
