Really Bad Names
 
I'm sure we've all met someone who you just pity for the sheer embarrasment of their names.

For eg, a guy I went to school with went by the name of Matthew but his name on the class roll was 'Yechiel', which confused the teachers no end as they had no idea how to pronounce it.

Another guy I knew was Frank Stein, middle name Norman.

My brother's ex-girlfriend had a friend who's name was William Timothy Wardrobe, otherwise known as Bill-Tim-Wardrobe.

And I heard on the radio about a guy who was born on April 25th so his parents called him Anzac Day Jones.*


So everyone come forward and tell all.



*for all non-australians: Anzac Day is a public holiday commemorating soldiers who've died in wartime.

wow, 3 responses in four minutes. Way too many people online at once.

sligster, I was talking about real names. And if you're going to quote Austin Powers, Alotta Fagina is much better.

Smitz 08-09-2004 03:13 PM

I guess people like posting miserable people's ufortunate names. Btw, this girl I heard about on the radio's name is Apple.

Also...I heard that this foreign lady gave birth in an American hospital and named her daughter "Female." Pronounced "Feh_Molly." Poor kid.

Sekto Springs 08-09-2004 04:17 PM

I've seen the name 'Dick Trickle' in the phone book.

Cyber-Slig 08-09-2004 04:18 PM

Oh now I remember one.My mum was watching jerry springer and it was about some american/indian black people with husbands cheating...and the woman was called Piggy :) :D

sligster 08-09-2004 04:30 PM

o, damn.... a few years back, they did an episode of The Man Show where they honored people with amusing names.... they had a list of about 50 names.... and I can't remember a single one.....

There was a kid in my English class named Doug Butt. Exactly spelled right and everything. Butt. I felt so bad for him. And what makes it worse is that he's really really fat.

Joe the Intern 08-09-2004 07:43 PM

Dick Trickle is the name of a real NASCAR driver.

I've always been fond of the name Todd. The letter T is sexy.

Joe the Intern 08-09-2004 08:07 PM

I love the name Apple. What's wrong with it? You should be envious. You should all be envious. I think I'll name my future daughter Apple.

Nate 08-09-2004 08:15 PM

No, blanket was the kids nickname because Michael always hid her under the blanket.

But you have to feel sorry for his kids (I mean for more than the obvious reasons) when you notice that ALL of them are named Michael.

Prince Michael
Princess Michael
Michael blanket
etc

Fez 08-10-2004 01:22 AM

I don't really know of many, but i know that i want to name one of my male children Lucious-Black. Such a sexy name.

Cyber-Slig 08-10-2004 11:54 AM

heh.....I think someone wants a name change ^^^^(ABOVE)^^^^

Al the Glukkon 08-10-2004 01:02 PM

My Dad's fovorite musician Frank Zappa named his daughter Moon Unit Zappa.

Joe the Intern 08-10-2004 01:29 PM

Other fantastic Zappa names:

Ahmet Rodan Zappa
Dweezil Zappa
Diva Zappa

They're good names, though. Much better than "Ralph".

Nate 08-10-2004 01:41 PM

I was actually shocked when a friend told me he met someone who named her son 'Cthulhu'. I mean really, naming your son after a demon-prince of the netherworld? Thats just low. Apparently she just 'liked the sound of it'

+++ Seeing as this thread is starting to take a bit of a tangent, I've created a new thread on names we like so that this one can be exclusively for bad names from evil parents.

Cyber-Slig 08-10-2004 02:07 PM

God....Lemme get a tape of thier son and ill post it..I think Ive met him...

Nate 08-11-2004 01:58 PM

Cyber-Slig 08-11-2004 02:03 PM
