Get a load of some of these names. Poor kids. :neutral: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080724/ap_on_re_au_an/new_zealand_bizarre_names
Some names I know people have named their children are: Seven Lucky Moon Unit (Frank Zappa's) Sunshine Sunday Rose (Nicole Kidman and Keith's daughter) But when it comes something sexual or that can be used clearly in teasing a parent really needs to think twice. I will not even go into those. Sherry (just a regular name for a regular person)
I was teaching a workshop in Wichita the last couple of days and a similar conversation came up. The guy said he knew someone with the last name Pop and he said that his first name was Soda. He also stated that the guys parents were particularly cruel and named his sister Lolli. :mrgreen:
Cannot stop laughing. Poor children...disown parents...parents need to take over Jay Leno's spot. Sherry
Wow - and I used to think my parents were cruel for giving me a different name. I will no longer complain, since it's obvious my name could have been something like "Lucky Shot" or "Too Many Wine Coolers" :lol:
And what about Micheal Jackson naming his poor son Blanket of all things ...Think about what that kids going to go through ...lol , I don't know if you all watch south park but they had a show about Micheal Jackson and his son blanket. I don't normally watch that show but that one caught my eye and i watched , it had to be the funniest show ever !
Students I have taught: Konception (and he knew what it meant spelled with a C) Turquoise (went by her middle name, Maria, because she couldn't spell her first name) Tekila (when I stumbled over the pronunciation, she said "Tequila, you know, the drink?") Marvick (pronounced Maverick...Mom didn't know how to spell it in the hospital) My sister taught: PrinceWilliam ThankGod Diablo (These three were siblings. There were also Michael-the oldest- and Hallelujah in the family. Hallelujah was the girl born between PrinceWilliam and ThankGod. She was a handful, hence her next brother's name.) Oh, and Michael Jackson's boys are named Prince I and Prince II.
