Think I've heard it all now

Just got back from the park where we met a child called Tiara. Obviously I can't vouch for the spelling but thought all you expectant mummies would be dying to add that one to your lists...

Re the child called Alaska...we heard a Canada being called at soft play and I actually know a Havana!!

the best i have ever heard was from a teacher who taught twins called - Armani and Versace!

it gets worse. their second name was Mclachy - Versace Mclachy anyone

oh, and this in in the east end of glasgow - so apply broad glaswegian accent to experience the full horror

One of the ladies who was in hospital at the same time I was having ds called her baby girl Sissy-Sparkle. No kidding. She was in the room next to me and we got talking, I asked what she's called her and I really didn't know what to say! I think I said something along the lines of 'ooo how pretty'

There was at least 2 Pocohontas's in Dublin the year the movie was out.

I wonder if they're now known as Poke by all their friends

I knew a Freddie-Kaye (girl) whose parets were apparentlky fans of nightmare on elm street.

The man who converted my old loft had a daughter called Ricky-lee. That was a rearrange your face situation.

There is a girl at my little sister's nursery called Treacle.

I know a little girl called Zandalee!!

Do you know a child called Xanadu as well? (can you remember the song - did O Newton-John sing it?)

He he, "Zandalee and Xanadu, come in for your Tea!"

Tiara is getting to be very, very common round where I live.

In fact you could say that there is quite a 'Tiara boom today!'

Dur, like many wisecracks, it's gone straight over my head.

I've come across the Glasgow McClatchey twins as well, although I have it on good authority that apparently it's pronounced "Ver- sayse" which is oh so much more amusing...

There's a Pocahontas in Paisley.

My hairdresser's'friend called her daughter Fennel

I met a girl yesterday called Autumn. I asked her if her birthday was in the autumn, and she said, "no, March". I wonder what her parents were thinking? My MIL is called May, but then she was born in May, which makes a lot more sense.

My friend taught a child whose parents called him 'gooey' his name was written thus:Guy!

went to school with Griselda, and now know a (little) Grace-Kelly

vito and Laura - my mum works with a woman who's kids are in the McLatchie's class - that's in Maryhill - definitely true

There's a Pocahontas in Dundee too!

ooo I know a Cairn (rock formation on OS maps?) boy and a Sommer (pronounced summer) girl, and a boy called Kea?

I am pmsl btw

I know of a Folly, Inisha (sounds like inertia and a ....
Meridienna

Oh I forgot about this one. I knew twins at school who was into lorry racing and their middle names were Scania and Volvo. Fortunately their middle names.

There's a girl at the school I teach at--last name Day, first name Lovely.
