What right thinking parent names their daughter after a beautiful woman who's unable to resist temptation? Seems like a disaster waiting to happen.

Pandora is a fairly common name. Also at least she closed the lid before the worst monster got out. Hope in case you're not up to date on your classical mythology.

As a kid, I remember hearing the last name "Gundelfinger." Apparently that's a not-too-weird German surname, but it's always got a chuckle out of me.

One of my best friends has the first initial/last name combo of A. Houle. I keep telling him if he has a kid he should name them Ash.

All over the town, on the borders with neighboring towns, were signs that said, "Welcome to Euclid, Mayor David Lynch." On one of the signs, someone had scratched out "Lynch" and substituted "Bowie." It's been over twenty years since I saw that sign, and I just had yet another birthday, yesterday, and I still think it's funny.

Local jail roster delivers again. Some girl got arrested on a parole violation, and her first name is Metallica. She doesn't look especially metal to me, but I'm hoping her parents are.Centripetal Horse posted:I once lived in a town with a mayor named David Lynch.

Saw a document written by a "Mychelle" today at work. What is it with the George R. R. Martin-esque trend of taking normal names and purposely misspelling them? In that vein, I had a close childhood friend named "Ilyse," pronounced "E-leese." Apparently it was an old family name, and I never really thought it was good or bad, but the teachers always had a hell of a time trying to sound it out on the first day of school each year.
