Were there any bizarre names in New York in 1994? YES!

Weird names for Boys:

the father was!)
Apple
As-Matik (say it fast, you'll see what I mean)

Confession
Dwarf (I don't even want to think about that kid's childhood)
GQ (must have been a handsome lad)
Gal
Go
Godly
Gospel
Hey (makes it easy to call him in for dinner, Hey! Hey! HEY!)
Holy

Knight Sir Lancelot (I'm not kidding)

Nadir (which means "absolute lowest point", thanks Mom.)

makes him unique)

Weird Names for Girls

Alaska

Precious Angel
Prince
Promise
Providence
Sin

Symphony
Tall (you better hope she is, that's all I have to say)

Tequilla (this means Mom won't get upset the first time you come home wasted)

Treasure

All those kids will be teens now, hope they are enjoying school.

Just name them: "Givemeawedgie" or "Kickmeplease" and be done with it.  :-)

I prefer normal, traditional names like William and Elizabeth.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Haven't seen the show but I am sure I have seen him in something.  Celebrity baby names are a whole fresh horror to themselves.

I was just at a kid's birthday party where the employee assigned to help with the party was named Precious.  We all agreed that we felt like asses when we had to summon her.

i went to school from elementary age to high school, with a girl named Honey..

i think by junior high most of us had gotten over the giggles anytime we had to call her.. but there is always some new kid that will laugh. they're just kids, they dont know PC at all..

My daughter has a boy in her preschool class named Bane.  Bane?  As in "the bane of our existence?"

Of course, no one can ever beat Frank Zappa.  His kids are named Dweezil, Diva Thin Muffin, Ahmet Emuukha Rodan and Moon Unit.

And to think I let Freeper talk me out of naming our kid "daddy's little latex allergy" for a girl or "two beers in Carson City" for a boy...  :whatever:
