Wife worked in a nursery, a woman wanted to name her baby 'Vagina' because it sounded pretty. The nurse said you couldn't name people after body parts.
Another baby was named 'Quac'. When the Doc pronounced it "Quack" as in duck, the mom corrected him "It's prounced "kwin-e-sha" the 'n' is silent." The Doc said the 'n' was invisible.
Twins 'Nautica' and 'Nauseous'
Control over names isn't all bad........ ;)

Could be worse, like Hardness Maximus or something.
A friend of mine's wife is a school teacher. One of her former students had the name (as it is written) La-ah. The dash is pronounced. As in 'la dash uh'. :confused:

True story.
One of my BILs use to work at a chain clothing retailer in a mall. One day a girl turned in a job application. They looked at the application and asked her if her first name was "L" "A" or "La" due to her writing it in as L-A. She immediately corrected them and explained that you pronounce the dash (hyphen) and said her name was pronounced Ladasha. :rolleyes: I would have called her Lahyphena for shits and giggles.
Stupid people shouldn't be allowed breed.
ShiThead? (theed)
......I think the correct pronunciation is Feinstein. ;)

I think this is a result of the "special snowflake" culture we find ourselves in today. Call it an insecurity, its as if they feel if they don't name their kids some bizarre, obscure bullshit they won't be special enough to succeed. We've got Celebrities naming their kids shit like Suri, Apple, etc.
Of course, I may be giving them entirely too much intellectual credit on this issue. Some of the parents I meet couldn't care less about their own success in life, let alone their spawn.
I think it's the mark of the ****tard, personally.

Lol, I met a Laqueefa once. Ignorant as shit, and very unfortunate name. :)
When I first moved here, we had a locally owned furniture store called Head Furniture. They advertised on the TV stations with some home brewed commercials where the owner, Richard, would say, "Hi, I'm Richard and this is my son Dick". Why would anyone name their kid that and then go on local TV and proclaim it?

I was never a NASCAR guy, but you didn't have to be one to remember that name. Still unparalleled especially because far as I know it was supposed to be taken seriously.
There was a farm when I was a kid about an hour from our house that had their names on one of those stones by the mailbox. The Faggots.
I always felt really bad for the kids.

I used to be obsessed with NASCAR when I was a kid. Even went to Talladega 3 times. Now I don't watch sports of any kind unless it involves shooting.
But yeh he was a driver for quite a while.

NASCAR driver and I always thought it was just a bad joke on Cole Trickle , Tom Cruise on the NASCAR movie Days of Thunder! :haha:

Sounds like he was a Junior or a Third and didn't wanna be called JR or 3rd or Richard.
One of my coworkers married a guy named Harry Calahan. True story.
In college, there was a weird kid in my dorm who introduced himself thusly:
"Hi, my name is Jacob Currotch. Don't call me Crotch. I hate that."
Guess what his nickname instantly became.

When it comes to naming offspring, you'd be hard pressed to top Frank Zappa.
