delalluvia:
In my business, I've run across strange names:
Ms. Couch, that's Ms. Velvet Couch
Mr. and Mrs. Schmuck (lived in Jersey)
Napoleon Bonapart Jones, III (the strange thing isn't the name, it's the fact that many men were named this)
Ms. S'Phyllis (yes, it's what you think)
injest:
ok redneck that I am...I have a set of Uncles named Man and Boy...
and here in Texas we had a Governor named Hogg...named his only daughter Ima...
she kept the name her whole life and became a famous philanthropist..

Talk about hating your name, my mother's maternal grandfather, my great-grandfather, who died in his 90th year ten years before I was born, was named William Hiram Bailey.
That's right. ... Bill Bailey!
--- End quote ---
I always have a giggle over another 'Bill Bailey'-- Guns 'N Roses' Axl Rose! I never knew that was his name until my MOM told me-- she is/was (not sure if they are still around) friends with his parents, and Mom still refers to him as 'Bill'. I get an even bigger laugh when I hear my 85 year old Mom say the name 'Axl' :laugh: .
