That's just plain cruel...

As for Moxie Crimefighter, Satchel, Rocket, Moon Unit, Pilot inspektor, Jermajesty, Audio Science, Calico and Camera...I guess it ensures their kids get noticed later on...just because you've got money, doesn't mean you've got brains.

The story goes the dad was welding the flanges on his turbo manifold before he did the deed with his missus the last time before she fell pregnant. Suffice it to say, they both haven't cottoned on to the colloquial meaning of the word hehehehe.

that is true but it is still a self imposed name for professional reasons, he just made it legal

A guy I work with, David, named his son Harley. no Harley is a cool name, and the reason; Harley: David's son!

I work with a Lan (Vietnamese) - amazing how many times our "Lan" gets a virus.

Then we have a developer, who codes in our Development, or Dev, environment, whose name is Dev - also amazing how many times code gets migrated from Dev into Test (but we don't have a person called Test, just an environment)

My wife's family has a relo called Assumption, another one called Ascension (Portuguese-Indian background).

The world has been going mad for years.
