Worked with a bloke by the name of Quick a few years back and it was his real name.

Never met another.

The ladies must have liked him

I always thought Candarelle and Climidiya would be good names for girls. Anadin and Persil for boys.

I used to call our twin girls Waynetta and Clamidia in public. Wife was not happy.
I wish I’d thought of SummerSkySlightlyCloudyWithAChanceOfMeatballs and Na.

My mother was a manager at a chemist, she dealt with incoming cv's when advertising for jobs, her Motto was stupid name, stupid person.

She also knew a family who had a girl with a name that was unisex but spelt it the males way, a boy called Boy and another child who I only ever knew as snot due to the constant flow of erm, snot. This bit should be in the council thread

You do see a lot of unusual first names on prescription, my favourite was Mr & Mrs High’s son Ace

"Unusual name? How's it pronounced?"
"Like the sound of a CV hitting the bottom of a bin."

In my daughter’s class at kindergarten was a Lion.

That’’s a lot to live up to in a name.

Can’t become a mid-level accountant living in Swindon and do that name justice.

There's a kid at my daughter's school called 'Great'.

I'm pretty sure he isn't

Cinderella has never seemed as popular as you'd imagine.

At least the parents were optimists!

Would have worked better the other way around...

Well, there are plenty of people called Israel.
Then there's Arab names such as Abu Jihad. What about Moon Unit?
The best names are Icelandic

Frank Zappa's son is called Moon Unit, born in '67 I think. Not a new thing...

[No ideas for a name]

It is his daughter named Moon Unit...
his son, the far more common Dweezil.
