Some of the unusual names are quite boldly imaginative (Trafton, say, for a boy, has a certain ring to it, & I like Delanie for a girl, but others, such as Truss, Tugdick, Sachet and Sleeza are a little harder to like…

Alpha Mae?! Amber for a boy?

Good God. And I haven't the fortitude even to look past the A's.

ORange Swan: I'm laughing, because I had the same immediate reaction before I even saw your comment. Clicked, glanced, said to self "This is going to make me really sick," and clocked the "back" button ASAP.

*clears throat*

Ladies and Gentlemen, your attention please!
The guests for the function have arrived!

Introducing His Lordship, the Archduke Reinhold of Austria!

Please welcome The Earl of Thorndyke!

Here, as well, the Cultural Minister of France!

From the Vatican, His Emminence, the Monsignor, accompanied by the Holy Reverend Mother!

Her Ladyship, Baroness Elsa of Oslo!

Direct from the American Continent, westward of the Atlantic, Helamans Warrior Baxter of Buckhorn Springs, and his wife, Miracles Precious One!

Not sure if this is supposed to be funny or scary. It's both to me.

Somebody actually named their daughter Pork Chop. Poor kid.

I would hate to be a kid in grade school with a name like Dianarea. Or Dickalyn.

Alarmingly, I noticed the URL was "wesclark.com". But it's not that Wes Clark.

Most of the Mormons that I've known have been the most genuinely nice people I've ever met. Although their religion is a bit nutty, regressive and particularly oppressive of women, they're nevertheless unusually nice, honest, and sincere people. In my experience.

Yeah, but you're still not going to let your daughter go out with a guy named "Tugdick".
