People can't be this ignorant. They know that fair or not a person is in some way judged on their name. I've heard of some fucked up names but the ones I've personally met are just insane.

I went to HS with a girl named Marijuany.

There was another girl last name Lust, first name Summer.

But the craziest were twin brothers.

Orangejello and Lemonjello. If you said it how it looks they got upset. They're pronounced O-rawn-ja-lo and La-man-ja-lo. Their mom needs the brakes beat off her ass for that.

Again WHY would you do this to someone?

 

[demon]

Would it be that hard to legally change your name? I sure as fuck would.

 

[Willco]

SO I NAMED MY TWO KIDS "DA-JUAN" AND "DA-ADAJUAN"!

 

[AlphaSnake]

Know a guy named Ron Mor. Good lord the horror...

 

[beerbelly]

I have a weird name too. Some people think it's a girl's name.

 

[RevenantKioku]

Starwanna (spelled Starwang) and Shiheed (spelled Shithead) went to my school. My father taught them both.
I also knew a Christopher Robins. He asked everyone to call him Joe.

 

[Rorschach]

I know a guy named "Denzay" who pronounces it Di en zay and gets pissed off when people read it wrong. -_-

I also know a Loquandishaz and an Aemei (pronounced "Amy" somehow...).

Oh, and my brother's birth name was Joan. :lol

 

[robochimp]

I was on the bus one day there was a woman with twins a boy and a girl I assumed they were twins because they were dressed the same.

The boys started to walk away

The mother yells "get back here Marcus!"

the little girl starts to walk away

Mother: "You too Marquisha!"

 

[Particle Physicist]

OMG im rolling over here.. those names cannot be real!

the worst ive heard was Sandal.


but i have a friend who worked for the miami herald when we were in high school.. he had to compile the names of the honor kids for a certain districts school.. he said one of the names on there had about 15 consonants.. NO VOWELS

 

[BigJonsson]

Damn my parents for naming me Adam...

 

[Diablos]

My kid's name is gonna be Gellin. LIKE MAGELLAN!

 

[Chipopo]

My dad had a co-worker named Iy Chu Wang. Dead serious.

 

[Diablos]

Damn my parents for naming me Adam...

Remember the time that you spilled the cup..
of APPLE JUICE
on THE FLOOR!!!!!
Please tell mom this is not her fault. :-(

 

[Vicious]

There was a kid in my high school art class named Harry Reer. There was also a kid named Richard Dick... everyone called him Double-Dick.

 

[ArcadeStickMonk]

Honest to god's truth...

there's a guy at the Nissan plant whose name is pronounced "Shi-theed..."

How is it spelled? Oh I think you know how it's spelled.

 

[Diablos]

[BeOnEdge]

[slayn]

there is a kid at my school named Long Wang. I assume its pronounced exactly how you want to pronounce it.

 

[fennec fox]

My uncle's name is Richard Nixon.

 

[Ecrofirt]

one of my social studies teachers always talked about three funnily-named kids he had over the years:

Donald Duck
Renold Rap
Ceran Rap

 

[Lyte Edge]

My name's (Lee) not bad, but there's been plenty of people that meet me and go "I thought you'd be Asian," or "Are you related to Bruce Lee" ( a really STUPID joke). Just shows how dumb people are, I guess.

 

[teh_pwn]

I shall name my son Lingus, and make him become a Col.

*cough* bullshit *cough*

Everybody claims to know those two. As far as I can tell they have been in every high school in every state for the last 15-20 years.

Some "funny" names have developed into fairly well-known urban legends, though it always surprises me when people try pass it off like they actually knew people with those names.

[Triumph]

I have the winner. I have met and shook hands with one Mr. Straiton Hard III.

 

[impirius]

My mother sold me on the Lemonjello thing when I was younger... now I don't know what to believe. But she SWEARS she's had a Godzilla come in on several occasions.

I, personally, knew an Abcde (AB-suh-dee) and a girl who was unfortunate enough to be named Pebbles and have the initials 'PMS'.

There was a story awhile back here where a local woman had twins. She thought the hospital named her kids, because on their charts it said Male (Mol-Lay) and Female (Fuh-Mol-lay). The ended up with that as their names.

 

[yoshifumi]

there was a girl in my older sister's graduating class named candace apple. as in candi apple.

 

[Gruco]

My high school principal was named Otto Graf.

Probably the worst I've encountered in real life....

[nitewulf]

a classmate was named Young Ho.
another classmate who ran for the student union was named Patricia Woodcock.
that same year, one of the SU presidential candidates was Ran Fuchs.

 

[Brannon]

LaShonquaniqua.

I hate ghetto French, and the Mississippi it spawned from.

 

[sc0la]

These are real names. Either I, my father, pr my mother have actually known these people.

Frosty Winter Knight
Burger Fry
Gatheroo Gatheroo
Dung (pronounced Young)
Golden Combs
Michael White (who was black)
Michael Black (who was white)

and Ho,
but that is actually semi-common

 

[Drensch]

Psychology today had an article a few months ago about names. There were really f'd names like: Xerox, Toyota, Acura..

And stuff like Lexus(might as well get your daughter breast implants when she's delivered) Neo, Orpheus, Trinity.

[Pedigree Chum]

I knew a guy named Harry Butt once. No joke.

The guy was huge though, almost got into a fight with him for laughing at his name.

 

[Leon]

I have met a girl called oo-oo once.

That's 2 O's, followed by 2 other O's. Each pair pronounced "poo" without the "p".

There's so many jokes there that it doesn't make me want to touch it.
