An amusing thought...

My great-grandmother's last name was Christ (pronounced to rhyme with 'pissed'). (Oh yeah, not sure whether that's with or without an h...)

I was just thinking that it'd have been funny if she'd had a kid and named him Jesus (with the spanish pronunciation). Could you imagine teachers in school calling role?

"Jesus Christ? Alright, who's the wise guy?"
*Little kid raises hand and corrects pronunciation*
"Your parents were cruel, weren't they?"

My SO was almost named "Pepper Anne Sult".

I was almost Hamlin. (for a first name)

Instead I was named from a Paul Newman movie, so was my sister.

my mom works with a woman named Rhoda Dick

my grandmother was good friends with the schmuck family - signed their christmas cards from "the five schmucks"

while working at a call center, we were looking thru a patient enrollment log, found someone named Lucious Cox Jr.

now i know it's pronounced differently than it's spelled (i hope anyway) but the fact that he's a jr kinda makes you think...

I was named after some little known figure in the Bible. His name was GoFuckYourselves! He was at The Last Supper. He was the waiter.

Always interesting.

In retrospect, I probably should have taken the vanilla icecream. But the chocolate looked far too tempting. Little did I know at the time, it was actually little children all mushed up into a fine icey paste. Needless to say, I didn't sleep well that night, and neither did those kiddies. Well, I didn't stand for such a crime!! NO WAY. I marched back in that store and demamded an explanation. And there is was. Double chocolate icecream. Sitting there, waiting to be ingested. Oh, the taste. Oh the pure orgasmic feeling when you consume the delicious cream. Oh, how I love chocolate icecream.

I know I have told this before but my mom grew up with two friends that were twins.

The mother wasn't expecting twins so she decided to name them Pearl and Harbor. Someone talked her out of it and she settled on Carol and Coral (same name with the letters switched around). Coral is known as Bea. I never knew her name was really Coral until my mom got caller ID. When the hospital tagged the twins A & B the family started calling her 'B' and it has stuck with her ever since.
