I lost touch with her before she had the baby, so I don't know if she actually named him that or not.

(Anonymous) 2015-03-28 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)He was an officer in the U.S. Army for whom Pike's Peak in Colorado is named. And his name was Zebulon. It's probably biblical, but it sounds like an alien character in a sci-fi movie.
I also love Lord Kelvin's title because it sounds like the name of a Star Wars villain.

I went to college with a guy with a somewhat unusual last name. Eventually a friend of mine actually asked him what was up with that, and so he told us the story behind it. His mother divorced his father when he was very young (5 or so), and being something of a new-age feminist, she told him that they were both going to be changing their last names to something completely new, and it was up to him to pick a good name.
So, that's the story of Steven* Ravenwolf.
(*first name has been changed to protect the innocent. Last name is 100% accurate).

And there was a school board in our province who once had the honour of having a superintendent with the last name of Dray. He got his doctorate whilst working for them. Thus, he was, I kid you not, Dr. Dray.
My parents had a corner store when I was a teen and one night I was renting a movie to a guy. I had to get his ID--first name Blue, middle name Sky (my best friend remembers him, too--though we didn't meet til many years after this incident). His parents might've been hippies when he was born, but by the time he started coming into our store, they belonged to one of the local splinter hardline Christian churches.

My first thought was that that was a "stripper name". My second thought was that her parents thought it was "clever" and didn't consider the teasing that would ensue. But I guess she was ok with it, so it's not my place to judge.

(Anonymous) 2015-03-28 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)I never knew what the M stood for, but one of the techs speculated that it stood for Mungus.
One of the patients was called Jaron Bane, which always sounded like a name for a 17th century New England slave trader--or at any rate, a villain of some sort. And then there was a whole family with the surname of Fennema. Which I understand is a perfectly respectable Dutch name, but I can guess what the kids' classmates called them.

A year later, she's walking on campus and one of her former students comes running up to her going, "Laura! Laura! Did you name your baby Enkidu?!" :D (She didn't.)

Princess Carbon
Ivy Garden
Nimrod
Cookie
And for some reason I've seen so many 'William Williams' type names, which baffles me, since it's still rare for a man to take his wife's last name, so that means their parents likely gave them a first name identical to their last name for whatever reason...
Re: Another name thread
And just to illustrate, some of the names I've heard over the years, most of which was in school:
Chloe Pang
Rishantini
Fazliana
Edward Jayden
Jeslina
Ian Fiqri
Shanmugam
Try figuring out which name belongs to which ethnic/racial group! Go on.

All 100% real. Wing Wong especially gave me a chuckle.
