True Story: I was waiting in a Doctor's Office while I was living in Philadelphia in college and the nurse announced "VAGINA"...a girl about 17 got up and said very angrily, "IT'S VA-GEENA".......... I thought that I would die for her. True.

My boss' wife is a teacher, and over the past five years (my time knowing them), she's had:

Placenta
Onnaday (the mother's name is Donna... pig latin=Onnaday)
Euwe and her twin sister Tuwe (pronounced You and Too)
Frogus
Allergen

Honest to .

@amy, I think I just peed a little laughing.
I work with someone named Timeshare (Ta-mee-sha-ray).

(that last line used to say "Honest to your deity of choice" but I put some html tag in, I guess...)

I think Jason Lee gave his child a very strange name, Pilot Trainor. Huh?

I heard of a lady named Venereal. They used to call her Vinnie for short.

My MIL volunteers at Children's Hospital in Detroit and has heard some doozies. Her favorite? Anul Penus. I'm not even kidding.

My skating teammate is a teacher and had a girl named sh*thead, pronounced Shi-thea (silent D).

@Roarman It's Pilot Inspektor. Not like that's much better. =)

I should say there was a girl in my teammate's class, not her own child. Oops.

Orangejello and Lemonjello, and abcde

meconium is sh*t (literally) who the hell in their right mind would name their kid sh*t

Urethra
Female (Fa-ma-lee)

That Orangejello and Lemonjello thing is an urban legend - check Snopes.com.

Whiplash I agree on that, but people will swear its true.

We have a client with a child named. Thelastone pronounced Thee-last-toe-nay. because she is the last kid in a family of 12.

also we have:

tarantula (taran-toola)

Meconium is also an urban legend. Either that or these people who claim to have named their children Meconium, Orangejello, and Lemonjello never registered the births.

I don't know anyone personally with really odd names. Out of the ordinary, sure. But not truly odd.

People always think we made up my second son's name, even though it's a traditional Italian name and a saint.

Oh wait. I did once see a student in our system named "Jakeup," which I assume was mom's way of spelling Jacob.

A friend of mine had a kid in a middle school science class he taught named sh*thead, it was pronounced Sha-theed.

There was also a girl in the school named Passion Hyman. She changed her last name to Heinze her 8th grade year.

My husband and I grew up w/some odd named acquaintances(first & last names):
Spring Somma (sounds like summer)
Rusty Dorr (girl)
Adam Baum (his brother is normal--John)
Sunshine Brown
Rusty Brown (Sunshine's brother)
Heaven Christian (a bit religious, huh?)

And...we are both teachers and have seen the following names:
Chasm & Ridge (their parents live by a local gorge--!!!)
Sultan
Parsiphany
Sobannayub (Sa-bon-ay-oob)
Dannon (like the yogurt)
Ednisia (Ed-nee-see-uh)
Corinthian (girl)

What's wrong with "Adam Baum"?

Greggie, I think it's that it sounds like "Atom Bomb"

Ah ok. I'd never heard Baum and bomb pronounced closely enough to have realized that one.

my sister is a nurse at a childrens er hospital and told us that there were twins that came in with the names orangejello and lemonjello

One of my clients just named her baby boy with the middle name of ESPN.

Yes, I've read the meconiums and sh!theads are urban legend. There really was a baseball player named Lemongello, though. (It was a last name.)

There was a comedian with the psuedonym Nosmo King. ("Nosmoking") And was it Norman Lear's (of TV fame) daughter who was named Chanda Lear?

I went to school with a...

Huyen Do (pronounced Window)
Ta Ho
David Letterman
Phuc Vu (pronounced fook vu, but it was still funny to read).
Oh and my maiden name was Dang.

I had a roommate named Misty Dawn. My great-grandmother went to school with Ima Pigg. No lie.

I had a friend named Summer Knight. I was so jealous of her rad name...

I went to school with a guy named CASH, last name BOND and his brother two years younger - yes, you guessed right! JAMES BOND.

My father claims to have grown up with a girl named Ima Outhouse.

But he lies about so many things, I never regarded it as truthful. (It might be. **shrugs**)

My friend is named Autumn Weather. It isn't an odd name, but a very hippie-ish (and also very pretty) pairing.

I'd like to throw in that since I'm married to a sailor, we've seen our fair share of "Seaman ____" combinations that were very unfortunate.
Also, my husband and I don't have weird names, but I think we sound like a superhero duo... Scarlett Fox and Johnny Blaze. Oh yeah, baby.

T'dae, T'mara, and T'yestaday
(Today, Tomorrow, and T'Yesterday)

They are sisters... cute huh? haha

Crystal Leer. Middle name Shanda. = Crystal Chandelier

The names like "Meconium" are an urban legend. The stories originated as a way to show how certain groups are inferior and uneducated--such as, too uneducated to know that meconium is the first feces produced by newborn (or not yet born) babies.

http://www.snopes.com/racial/language/names.asp

I've also heard that the Orangejello and Lemongello names are also apocryphal. It's always a friend of a friend who knows the kids.

I knew it was only a matter of time before someone claimed Crystal Shanda Lear.

I totally forgot this one. My cousin is friends with a girl named Britney Love Beavers. Parents: Sharon and Dick Beavers. You can't make that up.

i've heard of Abcde before too! It was pronounced ab-ceh-dee.

My friend also knew a girl name Vagina and twin sister Regina. I felt bad for her. I know a Sadika and Shanoska, but that's not as crazy as some of the names I heard hear.

This lady on the radio said she had a friend who named her kid Chiken Teriyaki. Supposedly she was in labor for so long and was hungry.

There was a kid at my mom's school named Cocaine Mothershed.

My mom actually went to high school with a guy named Hallo Ween.....crazy parents!!

"My cousin is friends with a girl named Britney Love Beavers. Parents: Sharon and Dick Beavers. You can't make that up."

This is by far my favorite one.

My mom once dated a guy named Dick Wacker.

Yes, I had a student named Dannon also, as someone stated above. It is like the yogurt brand, but also kind of pretty once you get used to it.

I would say my own name since there are two of us in this great big world, but my cousins names are Shondreika and Vintanique. Since I work in insurance, I get to see many names like some poor guy named Cole Caine (his parents were drug dealers).

what is wrong with all these people? and why are people in here quoting urban legends as personal stories?

okay the best I have was this chick in my cousin's class her name was April June and last name May. hope she doesn't read this.

That's Ralphie May's daughter's name. He's a comedian who was on the first season of Last Comic Standing, in case you didn't know. *lol*

My step mom went to school with a woman that had the last name "Tittsworth" I don't remember her first name though. Hopefully she got married and changed it!
