Most recent name to make you "huh?!"

a friend of a friend of a friend named her daughter Truly and her middle name was scrumptious. I kid u not

The one I feel sorry for is Rolan Bolan (son of Marc). He probably felt that he couldn't change his name out of respect for his late dad.

And of course Zowie Bowie is now Duncan Jones (apologies, haven't read whole thread so someone has probably said this).

Slightly off the point, but a friend of mine went to school with a boy called Delvin Hole....true fact.

I think Jermajesty is a stroke of jenius.

I kinda like Satchel too though Satchel Farrow goes by his middle name Ronan now. He was named after Leroy 'Satchel' Paige, an African American baseball player who started his legendary career in the Negro Leagues and then continued in integrated baseball.

It sounds like some bizarre sex addiction.

What if they're tall and not so slender? It's too cruel.

I know a Minnie who is a Minnie on the birth cert.

Awful.

Thanks AmandaPayne Just googled and turns out Minnie Driver's name is Amelia Fiona so that just reaffirms my opinion that it is not a suitable name to put on a birth certificate.

Minnie Driver is a nickname though. Minnie and Lorri Driver.

A woman I work with has a granddaughter is called Minnie. I can see it being cute on a tiny baby/toddler I think I'd hate to be called it as an adult (although I suppose there is Minnie Driver...) either way it made me go

To everyone ridiculing Banjo, it is not an uncommon name in Australia, v popular in Aboriginal communities and also the name of a famous poet Banjo Paterson.

In fact many of the names mentioned in this thread are not weird or crazy, but simply have their origins in another culture.

A friend's DD recently had a baby girl and called her Je'Taime...

I boggled a bit at that!

There's a boy called Dax and a girl called D'asher (pronounced dasher so don't get the apostrophe!) in DDs school aas well

A friend of mine lived next door to a girl with two sons: Jaiden-Jay and Armani-blu................ awful awful awful (and my children have unusual names too)

McJesus is the winner though

McJesus wins hands down! Although Jesus (pron Jayzoo) is a very common name in some parts of the world (ie very catholic parts) to make it different by prefixing it with Mc is just pure genius!

o.m.g. sta-lyn. Words fail me. I think Macjesus might be overtaken there.

friend named her daughter Sta-Lyn. Yes it is pronounced just the same as Stalin and no she doesn't no much about murderous dictators and I don't think anyone will say anything.

macjesus! I am crying here! That has GOT to be the winner!

Some of these are very ordinary to me, clearly many MNetters don't live in London!

Oh! Just thought of some others - again from a trashy magazine article :D

Cubby Bear (Boy) and Bunny Love (Girl).

haha glad you saw it too xigris - I couldn't remember where I saw it and was starting to think maybe I'd hallucinated it, it's so bonkers.

I also went to school with twins called Bubbles and Pebbles, and they had an older sister called Cleopatra. Unusual for sure.

The worst I've ever heard is always in Glasgow (from where I originate) so far I've heard " Right, Armani, if ye don't eat yer chips yer no gettin' any ice-cream!" " Mercedes McGonnagle, get aff that wa' (wall) noo!" and my all time favourite called out to a toddler who was trying to climb up the stairs on a double-decker bus "Pocahontas! Get back down here right now!" You've got to laugh!

I read that too Crafty! I think it was in Take a Break. It was an article about a woman who spent about £40,000 a year on clothes, toys etc for her (loads of) children.

Read an article about a woman who named her children after perfume - with one being called DKNY pronounced 'Dikini'....

No words.

Cartel.

I thought this was the word for dodgy gangs involved in gambling, drugs etc?
