My mom used to work with a woman (in the '70's, I think) named Gay Hore. And the bank VP at my local branch is Debbie B. Queer. I kept her business card cuz it makes me smile.

A former neighbor swears he went to school with Ben Dover. I still have my doubts that any parent would do that knowingly to a child.

Few people know that JP's name at birth was Harry Balsac. As if anyone would really name their kid Jean-Paul Francoeur...

Someone at work apparently goes by the casual name of Bunny... her last name is Love. In our computer system, they actually list her as Bunny Love.

In my old job we used to keep copies of odd names we came across. We had Crystal Clear, Sandy Beach, Rusty Nail, and Sharon Beaver.

My friend worked in a hospital processing baby pictures and came across a lot of crazy names.

One was Shithead (Pronounced Shi-thead)
Krappy Dudu
LA-A (Pronounced La Dash A)

I was going to post the La-a one too. Unless your friend works in a hospital in Ohio, more than one person has actually named their child that. Unbelievable.

I actually heard the La-a one from somewhere else. There may be only one.... for now at least.
