Her sisters are called Corinth and Corentine (which I think is a rather nice name, but it sounds unfortunately similar to the word 'quarantine'.)

Caviar and Champagne, they where brother and sister. Don't recall which was which, my mom is a teacher so I hear lots of werid names. One year she had Buick, Mercades, and Volvo. OH plus a girl named Belladonna, poison plants are 100% what you'd want to name your kid after. I really wish I could think of some more....

Well, Belladonna also means "Beautiful Lady" and is where the plant's name is from, so I don't see a problem with that one.

The ladies would put drops of it in their eyes to make them all dilated and bedroom-y  . The name sort of goes both ways.

Mercedes by itself isn't a terrible name either. Uncommon as hell? Certainly, but it's not terrible. Now if Buick and Volvo were siblings, then it's kinda terrible.

Mercedes is a perfectly normal girl's name in many parts of the world and the car company was named after E: The company was Daimler-Motoren-Gruppe before that and the first Mercedes was an engine officially named after Mercedes Jellinek, in a series of dedicated sports cars her father commissioned from DMG. venus de lmao has a new favorite as of 12:45 on Sep 15, 2015 |

In college, one of my RAs was named Zebulon Croll. Last I checked, he has yet to become a sci-fi villain, but I'm still hoping.

I'm a preschool teacher and can confirm that while for the last few years the name trend has been [name]-Mae, this year it's Lilly[name] or [name]-Lilly. Two L's. Got the jackpot with a kid called Lillymae. Also in my class: Rafferty. And for some reason a bunch of kids called Ethan, which is not a name you expect a small child to have.

I'm a Lily and kind of sad that my name is becoming more common, I liked it being fairly unusual. Also I don't like the double-L spelling, it just looks wrong to me, or like the old-lady version of the name.

Me, Myself and Irene just came on Comedy Central and reminded me one of the actresses in that is named Traylor Howard (she was also in like 5 reasons of Monk, and was the "girl" in Two Guys and a Girl.) I figured it was something like "I like Taylor but let's make it unique!" but Wikipedia says it was her mother's maiden name,

It's sort of like Miller or Hunter or Brewer, except it's for people who cook meth in their trailer parks

After I saw Matt Braunger's Eggly Bagelface bit, I checked the white pages and found him for myself. The online version gives the option to list people in order of their first names. I've compiled a list of the best egg-related names I've discovered so far:
If you don't believe me you can look it up yourself.
