Geographic names were also represented in parents’ choices with Aztlan, Bronx, Cairo, Egypt, Nashville, Oakland, Reno, Rome and Venice for boys; and Alabama, Britain, Jerusalem, Maligne, Montana, Manhattan, Persia, Tennessee and Tijuana for girls.
Anyone want to bet the child named Tijuana was born with a STD?

What difference would it make? You would still get called C**k regardless.

Sounds like the parents might have been dropped or shaken as children

Unusual names for girls included Albertarose, Amazyn, Comfort, Epic, Fury, Fyre, Halleluya, Infiniti, Mischiefs, Mystique, Peanut, Twinkle, Victory and Whysper.

At least we'll have a fresh crop of strippers in 18 years.

The weirdest name by far I have ever heard was a funeral director in Dorchester ON. who's parents were nice enough to name him Itchy. His last name is Dick. Most people know him as Ike though as that is what he tells the general public his first name is. That is some messed up parents!

I know I've told this story before so I'm fata'ing myself but I knew a guy in high school named Paul Lickers. In Grade 11 someone found out that his real first name was Richard. From then on he became Dick Lickers....

Atlas is a badass name for a boy. I'ma campaign for that when if I have one (probably fail, but whatever, worth a shot).
