WHO ARE these parents? They should be shot.
Wow, those names are just crazy. I've heard of a few of them. I wonder if the names came from family or the parents just tried to make them "unique".
wow, this is for real?? Have of them sound like dinosaur names! ha ha! Your poor friend who would have to learn those names.
Glad you are enjoying your new home!
I'm not even sure how to pronounce most of those. There was a "Baby Boy" at one of the schools I worked in (same reason as Infant), he went by something else, but had to have Baby Boy on all his record stuff. He was so embarrassed when he had to tell the lunch lady (in line) what his given name was, so she could find him in the computer!
I worked in my mom's clinic when I was in HS filing. I came across a name, I choose not to type (the pronunciation is not the bad part, it's the spelling). I went to my mom thinking someone made a horrible or extremely rude mistake...but that was his name:

Look at the "S" names near the bottom...it's pronounced Shaw-THYAD! Some people are so cruel!
Gotta tell ya, that takes me back to my days teaching in St Louis City! My favorite sibling names were Unique, Shanique, and Manique. But they were most definitely not the strangest!
