I knew a girl named Calpurnia. That's not the bad part. She freaking insisted it was pronounced "ka-PREE-na." WTF.

"Tionne Bloodsaw, and her boyfriend, Deshaun Trombone, are now facing multiple charges in the case" read a paragraph from a local news story. Would be funnier if they didn't ace Bloodsaw's five year old daughter with drugs, but hopefully the Bloodsaw-Trombone wedding goes ahead in 15-20 years.

Old schoolfriend of mine, a very white girl, named her three kids Swailey (boy), Latavia (girl), and Teighan (boy). The last one isn't so bad I guess. I don't know where Swailey came from. This is the most English thing I've ever seen and I'm English. Biggles, Posie and Tuppence. I'd hope it was real, but Biggles will have a really hard life.

Was prepping paperwork for scanning into the computer to help out the backlogged imaging department today at my government job, and came across a case file involving a person named Frzonia. Thought at first it was a misspelling, since that happens, but nope, every paper had the same spelling. Best I can guess is that it's a foreign name that somehow got Anglicized oddly or just something lost in translation, I'm not really sure. It's not so much a terrible name as much as it just stood out because it seemed so odd. Also just had a tooth recently pulled by a Dr. Ohgre, who had a very delightful personality and was quite gentle with the procedure.

Out of those names, Raven is probably the most normal.  Obviously a badass.    Should I put this in spoiler tags?

The pic is just at the wrong angle to show both of them. How can you not remember that, it was like the best game for the N64!

A friend of my wife's who I really, really like named their kid after an Everquest character. If you say it fast, it sounds like a normal name, but otherwise his name is Mithaniel.

I used to work with a woman in her 60s who was named Boots. It was on her license and cards with her given first name as Boots. She was horrifically racist and advocated 'cleansing' the world of poors and minorities. Personally, I have the problem in my family where most of the women on my mother's side have the same first name. We all go by our middle name and it's assumed that, when we marry, we'll drop the first name and retain the maiden name as a middle name and take up the new last name ... Except for the most part it doesn't work like that at all and no matter what anyone does any more we're all referred to by the same name 90% of the time. Thanks, five generations of weirdos.

I had heard that Nimrod only became an insult after Bugs Bunny started to refer to Elmer Fudd as such sarcastically. I'm fairly sure that in the Bible he was depicted as a skilled hunter or somesuch. Yeah yeah, google but
