Met an old guy, 40-odd years ago, named Elboe Jones. Everybody pronounced it 'elbow'. I always thought that was weird.
Met a guy once who's name was Sturdivent Teasdale Abecrombie. He went by S.T..

I went to HS with a kid named Shanti (Shawn-Tee).
It's sanscrit for 'peace'. Apparently his parents were hippies. He hated it. It was funny coupled with his Italian last name. |

An ex-boyfriend's very unique name, and her husband has no idea. That's pretty bad.

The hillbilly side of my family had some weird names.
Orillus and Dorthen are great uncles, or something like that. Ovey and Dovey are my great aunt and grandmother. My dad's legal name was Billy, until he changed it after he enlisted. He fucking hated that. I myself have a pretty oddball family name, but it's pretty cool. Hugh Hewitt made fun of me the last time I called in.  |

I went to a fast food place and the girl taking my order had Geezus on her name tag, I obviously thought it was a joke but what boss would let her have that if it wasn't her name? This was a white girl by the way.

2 versions of that name doing family research (1800's).
"Darkis" and "Dorcus" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorcas Quoted:
My friend had a sister who they named Dorkus. Supposedly from the Bible and I am sure she had a wonderful time in school catching shit. Some parents are just cruel...... |

Odd Name Jones. For real! My next door neighbor's plumber's sister had that kid in her class! For real!  and here I thought no one - outside of a Dean Koontz novel at least - would ever name a kid "Odd" 
I hope he can at least see the lingering dead to make it super interesting... |

WTF were they thinking??? Can't be too many of those, he worked for a ##### processor that is now owned by ####. At the same time, we had a Harry Johnson as well, when I started there out of school and I saw their names in the mail room I thought they were jokes and then found out they were real. Also knew a guy named Mark Grassl (same place) which shortened to M.Grassl. Edit: My Great Grandfather's name was D, he was the 14th kid, they stopped caring about names by him. He had no middle name, he went by DC, initials First and Last. |

I think he was either a magician or a clown. I think I'll google to the name to see whatever happened to old Magic. 
Edit: Sure enough--he's still around. Google says he lives in Decatur now, but 30 years ago he was in Taylorville. I never met him, but knew a guy who knew him well. |

PVNTMED Female Major if I recall her rank correctly in Iraq.
Tuesday Blome...trying to keep a straight face at our first mayor cell meeting was hardest the fucking thing I think I've ever had to do at a meeting. Actual way to say it was Blume but I fucked it all up when I gave my sit-rep, she later corrected me and was really cool about it. Said her parents were hippies. |

Quoted:
My friend had a sister who they named Dorkus. Supposedly from the Bible and I am sure she had a wonderful time in school catching shit. Some parents are just cruel...... Yeah, real historical figure. Still a screwed up name... Why not just go with the Aramaic version; Tabitha From Wiki... Dorcas (also known as Tabitha) was a disciple who lived in Joppa, referenced in the Book of Acts 9:36–42 of the Bible. Acts recounts that when she died, she was mourned by "all the widows ... crying and showing (Peter) the robes and other clothing that Dorcas had made while she was still with them." (Acts 9:39). This may indicate that Dorcas was a widow, or at the very least that she joined the widows in their works of charity. The disciples present called upon Saint Peter who came from nearby Lydda to the place where her wake was being held and raised her from the dead. This narrative concerning Tabitha/Dorcas indicates her prominence in community at Joppa. This might also be indicated by the fact that Peter took the trouble to come to her from a neighbouring city, when requested by the community members. The name Dorcas is Greek translation of the Aramaic name Tabitha, meaning "gazelle". One species of gazelle is now known as the dorcas gazelle. She is commemorated with Lydia of Thyatira and Phoebe on January 27 in the Calendar of Saints of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and on October 25 in the Calendar of Saints of the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod. Dorcas, along with Lydia of Thyatira and Phoebe, is honored with a feast day on the liturgical of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America on January 27. |
