I've known a few Apples, and once I met a Mercedes. But nothing I've encountered has topped Tequila, who lives up to her name no doubt

Cool fact. :)

I also want to mention that I have encountered a disconcerting amount of FNU's. Most being from Iraq or Afghanistan. I thought it was some funky common Middle Eastern name, but turns out it means "first name unknown." For a living I employ security guards, and I have a handful of FNU's working for me.

I've got a tekeila in my class. Such an unfortunate thing to name a kid. It's like her mom wanted to take away all chances of people taking her seriously in the future.

Others that hurt my heart include,
Aaricka, Xxiaver, Darryn (with brothers Darren and Darreon) and a gal named Aya whose full name was Aya Always Love Tommy (last name). Tommy being her dad. Our school also had a Koby Bryant for awhile.

Someone purchased a toy from me on eBay for her daughter, who is named Superrior.

The mother's name was Alice, so I have no clue what inspired her to name a child that.

I think I mentioned this way back in this thread, but I once conducted an interview with a woman named Porsche Mercedes Datsun. When I told the lady who collected weird names we encountered at that job, she didn't see what was so funny, at first.

I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

Today brought me a Johnnathan. As in John Nathan but all one name. Of course he can't write his h's for poo poo so it just looks like Jonnnathan.

I went to school with a Cinnamon. She had a twin brother whose name was also a spice.

Basil and Tarragon are both herbs, not spices.

To understand what happened at the diner, we use Mr. Papaya. This is upsetting because he is the friendliest of fruits.
Nutmeg? That seems like the logical complement if you're the sort to name your children after spices.

Nope, it's an uncommon spice; I doubt you'll guess it (unless you go through a list).
I'd post it, but a google search of the two spices brings up an article for the siblings.

I googled this so I could refute you and have instead learned that the way I differentiate between herbs and spices is not the commonly accepted way.

I thought herbs were leaves and petals, and every other part of a plant is a spice ?
