I mean really, really laugh? Then please, for you to enjoy..."Baby's Named a Bad, Bad Thing". The comments on this website have me laughing so hard, I have literal tears running down my literal face. And it's, sadly, so true! I once knew a girl named Ghenniphar (pronounced "Jennifer"....yeah, right!).
And about an hour after finding this website again, there were some kids running around the baggage claim level in PDX. Apparently, they were getting too rowdy, so the dad calls out to his little girl, "Kahkeenia!"
I've been talking about names a lot recently...I have a rule, no rhymes!! If I can think of a dirty or annoying rhyme in less than 5 seconds, so will a 5 year old, I promise you. Also, the shorter and easier to spell, the better. Having a unique name is one thing, but is it really worth spelling and/or pronouncing your name to others FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE?!?
[Incidentally, I found it when I was reading my old blog, which is amazingly still active. Who knew? My last post was in 2006, so it's quite a blast from the past to read through it. If you're interested, it's at http://ladygeek.livejournal.com]
