Weird names

[The Happy Squirrel]

I was just wondering....
this is a weird name contest...
what is the strangest name of a member of your immediate family
immediate family for the purposes of this thread are limited
to your self parents, grandparents, sibbling, kids nad grandkids

i think i ahve a tie for weirdness with my grandmother and grandfather with Veryle and Waclaw

waht kinda stuff can the Apex crowd produce here???????

[Black Francis]

I am Basil

My dad is Stratos

I think you have me beat with Waclaw though. That is pretty crazy.

[Jenny]

I think mine won't beat yours but it is a funny story. :) My brother's name is Donald Wesley. He is named after both grandfathers. One is Albert Wesley and the other is/was Donald Hubert. My mom always loves to laugh about how Donny could have ended up Albert Hubert Edwards. ROFLMAO!

[ArkiStan]

Hugh G. Rection.


just kidding :D

[irwin]

I'm ***** :)

[oblongmelon]

I've got a nephew named Dominic Pius (his father was going to be a franciscan but got booted from the seminary because of bad knees!=not good for kneeling)....to make it worse =Dom's birthday is on Christmas Day-how holy can THAT BE?
OH-And my grandmother was Mariagaetana Giovanna Assunta...nice tis'nt it.

[cruelpupet]

OK, I know you said immediate family...but this was a cool name that I had to mention. My friend's little brother's initials spell C.A.I.N.

[Cheesypuff]

One of my friends initials spells J.A.M....its pretty funny.

[theorangeone]

one of my friends initials is N.A.D. in high school, when he ran track they used to cheer "Go NAD!" He thought it was the best thing.

My sisters name isn't all that unusual, its just spelled kinda funky- her name is Siobhan, but its pronounced shivon.

Ummm, my dad always says that he wanted to name me Barengaria, but my mom wouldn't let him.

[theHNIC]

NOT A FAMILY MEMBER....

I know this INDIAN his name is: FLYING WILD COYOTE

NO JOKE....

[OC]

I know a kid named Thelonius.

[Nanotech9]

my old boss named his little girl Dottie... i will pitty her when she grows up.

[gwilks98]

The worst name anyone could have at this point in time has got to be....











Lars Ulrich

[eSDee]

I would name my child "Festering Ass Scab" before I named him Lars.

[styleee]

my younger sister's name is Lorene, and i think i've maybe met one other Lorene in my life.

and my, dad, he's the one with the funny name...

Ovanes, or, as some call him, Oncho, or as others call him, Onick.

:)

[zenbooty]

My mother's first and middle names are LaRae Aldea. Pretty uncommon, but not what I would call weird.

My middle and last names are James Dean :)

[ironchef]

Shi Thead

that's the best i've heard off the top o' my melon. i have some doctor friends that like keep lists of weird names.

[zenbooty]

Almost forgot.

While working as a field engineer, I was doing some installations for a law ofice, one of whose associate attorney's names was Sblend Sblendorio.

I HOPE his mother didn't give him that one.

[StonedWheat]

My cousin is Harry Man. My best friends brother is Harry Toy. Yuck.

[Jihforce]

My cousin's initials are R.I.P.

Haahaa.

[Hopper1]

I was almost named Acey...but sadly i wasn't.

[Y2J]

how bout a middle class white jewish couple naming their daughter Kenya? (former neighbors of mine)

[Twilight]

Not related to him, but I know a guy named Sky Walker.

[welfareloser]

I may not be the winner here, (*****) but i think i am in the top three...

i named my son blaidd. rather than tax the american stupidity with other languages, we are just pronouncing it "blade." (proper would be something kinda like bledth/blydth) it is an old celtic word meaning wolf.

now, would you fuck with a kid on the playground knowing that his name was blaidd?

not unless your name was machine gun...

his nickname is caesar jesus. and i don't mean the elegant, spanish pronunciation "say-ZAR hey-SOOS." i mean the trailer-park cracker pronunciation "SEE-zer JEE-zus."

it was what my sister suggested naming him while we were agonizing over names, and it was just so goddamned funny we couldn't let it go.

if i ever have another kid, he's going to be galileio.

and if you don't believe i would do that to my kid, just ask my firstborn, he'll tell ya...

LOL!

[mcs328]

Had a friend who's name was Dikkam (prounounced dick cum)
She preferred mimi instead. :)

I always wanted to name my daughter(If I ever have one when I get married) Anna Mei.

[apmiller]

Back in my bill collecting days, I had to call up a lady named Edwina Kills her man. Yes she lived on a reservation.

I didn't get to see the name right away so when the account came up and someone answered the phone I said, "Hi, can I speak with Edwina Kills...never mind!" (click)

No WAY was I going to tell a woman called Kills Her Man, I want payment in full or the car. Better safe than another notch on her belt!

When I was in high school, the local school bus company was owned by two brothers whose proper names were John Knauf and Richard Knauf.

Of course, being a small town, they didn't go by their given names, but instead by the nicknames:

Jack Knauf
Dick Knauf

And they were old enough to be out of the slang loop, so I wonder if they ever had a clue...

[Memo]

I had a friend in high school. His first name was Otto. That's pretty weird in itself, I think. Only other Otto I know is the bus driver from the simpsons. His last name was Beels........and his middle name? Moe. Otto Moe Beels - Automobiles. His parents must have just not cared , hehe.

[gwilks98]

My sister's roomate's boyfriend is Carlo DiCarlo
