Coolest name thread (First and last!)

I will admit something here that drove me nuts in high school. My full name is Christopher Michael Crouse and in school teachers would call me by Chris Crouse on the first few days of school. I go by Michael btw. Well the part I hated about it was it was so close to the rappers call Kriss Kross and they had a hit song called "Jump Jump". Well the kids would say Chris Crouse will make you jump jump. That really pissed me off and I still hate that to this day. Some off you will remember that group and song from back in the 90's.

Having worked in hospitals (places for lots of names to funnel through), off and on over the last 25 years, I could make a pretty funny list.
There was a woman in Shreveport named Para Lee Vise. I swear.

I knew a family of Booty's once. I always thought they should have a son and name him Seymour.

I also knew a Candy Hershey.
 
Here's a few of my favorites that some of my favorite "gurlz" have come up with:

Patty O'Furniture, Winnie Bago, Wilma Titzgrow, Sharon Magoodies, Marion McKuzins, Nuclia Waste, Holly Would, and Molotavia Cocktail. Just to name a few.

Hahaha! Those are GREAT. Sharon Magoodies is especially funny to me for some reason. Here's a couple more like it... Phil McCracken, Hugh Jass, and... what's that other one?... darn... can't think of it.
 
Don't fotget....

Oliver Closeoff.

Remins me off the classic novels you may have heard of....

Under the Stadium by Seymore Butts

The Outhouse by Willie Makit, illustrated by Betty Wont

Tracks in the Sand by Peter Dragon

etc., etc.


On Facebook some old school chums from the 70s have found me; here are some real names...

William Will Willis
Robin Crow
Freda Lay

A nurse I dated for a period of time told me there was a lady who had delivered a baby was asked what the little girls name was to be said; she had heard something in the OR she liked. They went through all the people present....no. All the istruments........no. Fnally...body parts. Yes....the chils was named placenta.
 
I know of an Alberta Canada. I also saw a baby boy named Essence. I know that's from the magazine, but a boy named Essence? A girl's nickname of Essie would be cute, but I couldn't imagine a guy with that name. I helped someone name their son Connor McLeod.
 
I met a Kahlan today.... except it was a 5 year old boy. hehe Poor kid. Pronounced Kay-Lin. Don't know how he spells it though.
 
Idk if they posted this all rdy but I saw a kid named Willie Peon...lol I know this thread is old but im a biiig MI fan and I thank Ethan hunt is EPIC for a girl I LOVE LOVE LOVE Luna(harry potter) but my sister is like not uh my nice is not going to be call luna so now I have to stick with Isabella
 
I have to add onto this... it's slightly adult content but no more than potentially naming your kid Holden........

My friend Brian at work has a daughter who is 14 and in my biology class at school... really funny kid. They were talking about unfortunate names and he told her about a kid he grew up with named Larry Stanes. Larry went into the Navy when they graduated and as anyone knows, a beginner in the Navy is called a Seamen. You get the drift.

She says "Oh, that's really terrible... I hope he got promoted quickly" and Brian said "Actually he was horribly behaved and got thrown out." She paused a second and said "So I guess you could say he was prematurely discharged."

:roflmao:

To add my own personal "worst names ever," my dad had a friend in school whose old mans name was "Richard Head." You do the math...

And at the first school I taught at, there was a student named Michael Hunt. He went by Mike, and one day the office needed him after school, so the secretary comes on the loud speaker and says "Mike Hunt, please come to the office. Mike Hunt to the office."

Say it out loud... and fast.
 
Speaking of Mike Hunt...my dad told me that he was in high school, whenever he had a substitute teacher students would add the names "Mike Hunt" and "Paul Sack" to the roll.
