what is the most unusual name you have heard irl?

[spritefairy]

Heard today:-

Spring-rose

At the doctors the other day was deliah-rose. Thought it was a misspell for Delilah but then maybe it's Delia?

And the when I worked in a nursery there was a little boy called deneil. Not too bad you say, till you knew his older brother was called Neil

Rocky
Toby for a girl
Beau as above

Knew an Ixant. Pronounced Ee-shan. Made up I think.

Hyacinth Bucket's son was Sheridan.

Was at school with a Blaise (girl), and at uni with a Vashti (girl).

Balonz?

I have taught a Fajarna and a Diaphuka. Really awkward taking the register.

A friend of a friend was a lady called winter. Winter Christmas.

I saw an advert for a plumber (I think) for mr Paul Paul. Not sure if that's his name or a misprint, so does it still count?

Oooh and went to uni with a Tuesday and a Posey

Some of these names are horrific, offensive and a fair few made up.

Vashti isn't an unusual name!

Fishface.

I shit you not - Traveller family in the north east. His siblings / cousins are Cooker, Hobs and Mrs.

Cougar

I really like Tiberius

Just remembered we had a girl at school once called Rehab (pr. Ray-hab). She also had an awesome last name! She was really great fun and her name suited her perfectly. I've never heard it before or since though.

I know of someone at school that has 5 girls:
Shaniqua
Shaliqua
Shamiqua
Shariqua
Sharpiqua

Go figure

What's wrong with Mitzi ? There was a film starlet in the 50s/60s called Mitzi Gaynor.
And surely Zelda is after F.Scott Fitzgerald's wife? (esp as it was in Waitrose)
I give you ---
Winsome. Friendly sort of name, I think. She was an Afro-Caribbean lady. Ildiko. Never come across it before or since. She would be quite elderly now.

Prince. He was not a member of the Royal family.

Forgot - Arras - lovely old lady ( long gone) who was named after the battle of arras that her father was lucky to come out of alive.

Not a " lovely" name in sound but just so lovely I what it meant to the family.

I like some of these

NC for this incase she's on MN, but I know someone who named her twins Chaos (boy) and Mayhem (girl).

Posey isnt that unusual

Helenluvsrob how poignant. Given the month.

Serenity - I heard this on holiday, I think that's quite a nice name.

Ayla (after Clan Of The Cave Bear)
Liberty - little girl
And my dad worked with a man called Brilliant Cube

I met a baby Evajane the other day. Like Eva Jane but all one word.

I heard Anubis being called for in the play ground.
I was also friends with a couple who Calle father son Buzz, I really like the name Buzz.
