I work for a salvage yard, and we just bought a car from a woman named Penni Roll. No joke. You might think, well...her first name sucks, but maybe she can go by her middle name. Nope, middle name is Jili. Yep, Penni Jili Roll.

What kind of car?
A Nissan Cent-ra.
i heard listening to some radio show earlier this year, talking about terrible names, this couple with the last name Barr named their daughter Candy... Shes going to have a great life. Good luck Candy Barr...
Funny, here I thought all those...performers...had stage names. Turns out, some of 'em are destined for the pole when they're born.
'...aaaand over on stage three, it's Candaaaay.'

Oddly enough no, bad clutch.
Alright guys I'm pulling out the big guns...these are all real first names from a list of students (and apparently all women). Bajans want their children to have unique names, at all costs. Now I don't advocate giving your kid the most common names - there are a lot of women my age named Kira (not sure what triggered this) and a lot of little girls named Ashley or Britney right now. It reeks of a lack of creativity, or effort for that matter. But if you're gonna make a name up, it shouldn't be obvious. Put some work into it.
Christaline
Makeda
Kathrin (It's still gonna be pronounced "Catherine," mom & dad)
Ernesta (ouch!)
Jelisa (this sounds like it has something to do with jelly or jealousy?)
Judyette (what, Judy not feminine enough for you?)
Jeanephar (Jean + Juniper + WTF?)
Silvana
Muria (oh, like Maria but spelled differently. How clever)
Kamiesha
Bonus: Saw a woman in a dentist's office who named her little girl Xakesia (pronounced Zackeesia)
I used to date a girl whose initials were KKK. I thought it was a coincidence until she told me that her two brother's initials were also KKK. They were all in their 50s.
Turns out her deceased father was a Grand Wizard in the Klan. Talk about sick!

Whoa...
I went to college with a guy and his first name was Pornsak.
In high school there was kid with the last name Head, and yup, you know what his uncle was named: Richard.
I had a co-worker named Bruce. HIs middle name was Wayne.
Care to guess the middle name of his brother Clark?
Package for Mr Asswipe...
....That's Az-Wi-Paaee!!!!!

Kent?
Note to prospective parents:
Do not entertain yourself with your child's name. They'll have to live with it, and they may not appreciate your humor or wit. Then you'll need them to take care of you in your old age. Payback is a mother ...
Unique or odd names seldom work out well, and guarantee misspelling, mispronunciation, and misunderstanding.
Give them a real, grown-up first name to fall back on when the nicknames grow old.

We have a winner!
My last name is kea, pronouced like key.
My dad wanted to name my sister Cherry.
I'm torn on this subject. My name is unusual for the land of the fat and plenty, but common in northern europe. So is my boy's. It's both helped and annoyed me, but I probably wouldn't be the same person if my name was Steve.
Per (pronounced like a pair of shoes.)

Indian?
A guy on the local car boards posted a pic from the inside of a cab in England. The driver's name was Sook Kok. I wouldn't have believed it if it didn't coincide with him arriving in England.
If folks are just going to make names up, why not have them pertain to something such as their profession?
For instance, the daughter of a pool cleaner could be named Chlorine or the daughter of a Gynecologist could name Chlamydia.
Not only do these names sound pretty initially but they’ve got just the right level of plausibility to get you past the introduction and on your way before the joke is discovered.
Thoughts???

Some talk show had a woman on it who named her daughter Chlamydia. She didn't know what it was but thought it sounded nice. I can only assume she did this after leaving the hospital.
That's the SOP for OB Residents when someone asks if they know of any good names for a baby....
My boss at my first real job was named Richard Leach, but he went by Dick. When I went into his office for my initial job interview, he extended his hand and said "Hi, I'm Dick Leach" and I about choked trying not to laugh.
