I went to school with a kid named Ronald Reagan. At the beginning of every years when they did roll call the teachers always thought someone was playing a joke. Also had a Michael Hunt.
My dad taught college biochemistry for 30 some years and he had some prize winning names come through. In no particular order some highlights are:
Chew My Dong
Ifaki Adaki (say it fast)
Fook Yu and Dam Yu (brother and sister team)
And then there’s Bill Lear, father of the LearJet, who named one of his daughters Shanda, no kidding…
My mom was the administrator for an OBGYN practice for years. One of their patients had a set of twins and they were named, get ready, Male (pronounced Molly) and Female (pronounced Fe-Molly)
There’s a Jeff Cooper who works at one of the gas plants where I work. I haven’t figured out who he is yet or (more importantly) if he likes guns. I just see his name on the sign-in sheet.
There is a dude in the small town my FIL has his lake house in, he runs a nail salon. You can’t miss the sign as you drive through the one street town. Phuc No Nails.
When my BIL was in high school he worked at some hipster clothing store in the mall. One of the girls that applied to work there first name was L-A. So he asked her during the interview how do you pronounce your name “L.A.” like the initials or “La” like it sounds. She replied oh no you pronounce the “dash” it’s Ladasha. I told him she should call her Lahyphena.
I had a guy in custody who’s legal first name was Cocaine, we thought it was an alias until we ran his prints through AFIS. You can’t make this shit up.
