Another one I should have posted ages ago. My roommate is adopted and his middle name is Trevathan, which I've never seen anywhere else. He goes by Trevor.

I think that's actually a surname that originated in Cornwall.

Was just reading an article on Ol' Dirty Bastard and learned he had some interestingly-named people in his life.

Sister: Lamaranae
Wife: Icelene
Children: Barson, Taniqua, Shaquita, Osiris, Allah, God Ason, and Ashana.

God Ason is a kickass name, not even kidding here.

The other day at work I heard a mother call out to her toddler son, "Mason! Come here!" I thought she was just another white middle-class soccer mom choosing a last name as a first name, thinking she was being unique. Later that same day I heard on the radio that Mason was the 3rd most popular baby name for boys this past year.

I dunno, I hear 'Mason' and I just picture all these women giving birth to 76 year-old men.

I knew a Mason in middle school. His last name was Potter.

If your name is Merlin Sheldrake you'd drat well better become a plant scientist.

Speaking of dumb names, what the gently caress happened to the term "botanist"? You're the New Yorker for poo poo's sake, your audience can be expected to know what words mean.

If you don't want to watch the video, this guy's legal name is Meow-Ludo Disco Gamma Meow-Meow.

He was convicted of traveling without a ticket, which is strange to me, because if you're tapping a card, why would you need a ticket?

He jammed the RFID from the card under his skin. That's not really keeping with the spirit of using a card.

My program recently got two students. The enrollment staff call them "the twins." They are cousins born one day apart whose parents decided to give them the same names, first and middle and last. I can only imagine their fathers were brothers who really wanted to be the first to name their child after a relative and the second one's parents didn't know the other had beat them to it.

This should be a crime.
