Once you work for the school system you will know what odd names are
La-mon-jah-l0 (Lemonjello) and O-ron-jah-lo (Orangejello), lemon and orange jello Fi-mal-lee (Female), the family first language wasn't english Johnquail(John Quail) & Jonquil, they were named after street signs. I personally knew a kindergartener named Sha-heed spelled Shi*head. Forgot one! E-phant (Infant) again, ESL |
Their mom is going to have a hard time keeping them straight and not stumble on her tongue when calling them to dinner!

I could of swore you lived in my town.....I worked for the Welfare Office for almost 30 years and these are some of the names I saw also. We really got some weird ones, I remember one name that had EVERY letter of the alphabet in it and the mother couldn't even pronounce it.

I forgot that we also had a lady who named all of her kids devil names....Lucifer, Demon, Satan and there were a few others that I can't remember. But we just couldn't believe someone would do this tho their children.

I agree with cjomomma: These triplets would not be happy with their names! But you asked what my stupid late-night thoughts are... who's thinkin' at this hour? Since we're talking odd names for triplets, how about... Phyllis, Dilys and Amaryllis? Horace, Horton and Hortense? |

Can't say too much, I have a cousin who is named Samantha Emmaline followed by a big long Polish last name starting with KW and ending with SKI and all kinds of letters in between, lol |
I never liked my name so I wouldn't put it on my son...but he used it as a middle name for one of his twins...poor baby....I rad that you never want to name a child that would cause the child embarrassment...A co-worker of mine way back in the 70's whose last name was Flower named his daughter PURPLE

My cousin named her daughter after a singer she liked at the time. Teeocha Marie is her daughter's name. It's pronounced Tee ock uh It's an American Indian name I believe. The girl is in her 30s now.

Seems the most recent trend is giving first names that sound like last names... like McKenzie - that's the only one I can think of cuz my brain is sleeping, like I should be!
