Talula Does the Hula?? How could any sane, compassionate parents give their child such a horrible name? Kids have to put up with enough shit in life, there's no need to add to their problems by giving them a name that sounds clownish. The poor girl was so embarrassed by her name that she insisted she be called "K."

Dandy Lyons. Ima Hogg. The list goes on. The parents get a few weeks of lulz. The kid gets a lifetime of psychological anguish. Fair trade, no?

Guard number one is a senior on Klahn's mountain, and aspires to be a research chemist. Welcome, please, Hung Well! Guard number two is a real skating buff. A warm welcome for Long Wang! Traveling comes naturally to guard number three, as he's a licensed airplane pilot. Welcome, please, Enormous Genitals!

I also worked with a very angry militant feminist whose legal name was "Fury"

And then there are the two kids (at least so far) whose sports crazy parents named them ESPN.

I'm surprised no one is outraged at :

Quote:

Judge Rob Murfitt made the 9-year-old girl a ward of the court so that her name could be changed, he said in a ruling made public Thursday. The girl was involved in a custody battle, he said.


Follow along in our daily prayers ...

Mother state and father government, please guide me; take the place of our religion, replace it with equity for all. Unto thee do I offer my life's toil, my first born is yours for the glory of STATE.

I think it should be illegal for parents to name their kid's stupid crap. They don't undertstand the permanence of names. I'm sure they wouldn't like it if their name was something like "4 Lyfe" or "Sharqualonda."

For some reason, this reminds me of Jay Leno's Headlines, the weddings section. My wife is Filipino, where their custom is for the wife to change her maiden name to her middle name, and the children's middle name is the wife's maiden name. If that was our custom, some of the weddings Leno digs up would make for interesting names. One he had a couple of weeks ago was the McMaster Bates wedding.

Would the name "Cyrus" be a handicap? =O
