Yeah, I used to date a guy that was half Dutch. He found it hilarious for the entire time we were together.
My friends brother wanted to name his son Albi, and is planning on naming his daughter Queenie.

I kind of wish my name was Starlyn, I feel like I would have no choice but to dress like I was from the 80's Witt mad crimped hair, and maybe be the singer of a predominately keytar playing band.

Albi! Alllbi! Albi, the racist dragon!

Man, I wish that was me. I should make lemons into lemonade and start shopping around for used keytars and singing lessons. Also crimp my hair into a nightmarish mane.

No. I was in the OC through eighth grade, then moved out near Riverside. Oh well. :smith:

Literally no less than a minute ago, I checked in a client named Dong Wang.
I'm sure his name is something generic, written like 王東 or something in Chinese, but still, must be a pretty embarrassing name to have in America. :(

Saw a new Courtney today: Cortnee. I bet she gets a lot misspelled mail. My last name is one letter off from a far more common one so I can't imagine having a common first name with a totally different spelling.

My boyfriend's name is Benjamine. When I first met him in college, I told him that when they put the sign on his door in the freshman dorm with his name on it that it was spelled wrong. But apparently he is the third Benjamine in his family. He also has an aunt Buffy, but this was ages before the television show.

I think Buffy is an awesome name, mostly because of the T.V. show.

I was watching a show about about sex addicts, and one of the dude's names was Issax. Pronounced Issac.

This has probably come up before, but I have met two Precious' and a Cherish. I can't picture a 40 year old woman with those names.

That's interesting, I can picture those perfectly for 40+ year olds, and teenagers, but no other age groups. Cherish at least gets Cher, which is a decent enough nickname. Poor Presh.

I'm a debt collector, and I've seen some weird names.... shortly after the first modern Transformers movie came out, I received an account to collect on.... Optimus Prime must've had a bad day. God S Gift was another fun one to talk to. Keep in mind these are medical bills, in a city with a decent sized homeless population

When I was 14 I thought it would be the height of genius to name my daughter "Saylor". Like sailor, but you know, Taylor. Just stick Ys in poo poo and it'll look all classy.

A presumable adult had that same basic thought process

There was a girl I knew in high school that went by Nikki, and I always assumed her legal name was Nichole or some variation thereof. Until one day I happened to be in the room when she bought her prom ticket, and had to tell the teacher selling the tickets her legal name, Eunique. Pronounced "unique".

One of those anti-texting-while-driving ads running right now features some poor kid named Xzavier. It's very unfair.

I was in the hospital for emergency surgery a few days ago (my penis is too big and it got stuck in a lady) and one of my nurses was called Quanasia.

But ages before Family Affair?

Less morbidly (because if you read about the actress who played that Buffy, you'll need it), Wonderful Terrific Monds (III!), but the story behind his name is much closer to awesome than terrible.

Uhhh my friend is threatening to name her unborn child Raydar. Not like in a joking way, she posted this on Facebook and went into a long defense of why this is a good name ("he can use Ray as a nickname!")

It sounds like half a giant robot name. RAYDAR STEELE.

I wouldn't believe her but I know kids named Anakin and Sephiroth and basically nerds are insufferable and capable of anything.
