I don't know when the name "Jaxon" exploded in popularity but it is like page one paragraph one in the Blue Lives Matter Big Book of Baby Names

For some reason, combined with the last name, my brain won't parse it as reading like the constellation, I keep wanting to put the emphasis on the O, like OH-ree-on

While at the playground with my kids, I met a mother who has named her daughter 'Irish'.

She explained that she liked interesting names. Not sure if that fits the category, but hey, whatever floats your boat.

I once knew a guy called Brittish (spelling is correct). He was a very tall American man who had no connection whatsoever to the UK.
His daughter's name was Brittanica.

Must be a family fond of documentation - Brittish is in the American Declaration of Independence (can't be purely an older term, as British is also in there).

It's been just over 5 years since my last post of daft hospital usernames, but I couldn't let this latest one pass without comment.

A few weeks ago I was looking for a user and and in the results, there was a user called Moon-Moon (first name). I immediately asked around the office to see who the hilarious memelord was, but it's legit, I've seen it in the staff record. Works in A&E.

You probably misheard Magnus Ver Magnusson, who is a famous Icelandic strongman.

I've recently started a new job, where one of the managers is named Maverick. Huuuge store, so they have to page him quite a bit. You can hear the pleasure in peoples voices as they let everyone in the place know that "Assistant Mangager MAVERICK, that's MAVERICK" is needed at the registers. Very much not in the spirit of this thread but we don't have an awesome name one. Maverick is very good at working with people, incidentally.

Sadly, his name is Cory.

quote:

Johnson received his nickname during his time in Kentucky after a reporter asked him about his fluctuating weight. He quipped that it was because he "poops so much", which caught on with his teammates.

So now everyone calls him Poop.
