I'm naming my kid optimus prime
Names of people I know: A mexican girl names Facil (it means easy in spanish) A girl named Unique A girl names Tybreisha A girl named Nymika A girl named Bonqueisha A girl named Tatteeiana Funny thing is they're all black. (those are correct spellings also)
Im calling my kid "Speed" and raising him on a diet of steriods and energy drinks. He will run before he can walk.
The worst thing is that the parents aren't even being that unique. If you're going to give a kid a weird name, why stop at just a weird spelling of a common name. Can you at least be a bit more original? Of course, I'm probably going to end up naming my progeny after video game characters, but at least they'll have interesting weird names, not just "my parents couldn't spell".
If I have a daughter, I'll name her shanaynay

I know about 6 Thomas/Toms. Don't worry about uniqueness of names, just hope that they get nick names. I know Thom (pronounced fom.) Scottish Tom Fat Tom Obese Tom Big Gay Tom and Lanky Tom [editline]10:33PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Shawnald;21843476]Is this what happened with Gar[B]r[/B]y?[/QUOTE] It's just a spelling ideology.
I think Garry is the more widely accepted spelling in the U.S. actually. Which is weird of course because he's British.

(those are correct spellings also)[/QUOTE] I swear like all the black girls and some of the black guys at my school have ridiculous names. Though they're all from the same community at the edge between suburbia and rural, so it kinda makes sense. One girl's name is like Dyreka or something, and is pronounced startlingly similar to diarrhea
My name is Chris. I hope that's okay.
[QUOTE=Second-gear-of-mgear;21831317]My uncles full name is Matthew Matthias Matt.[/QUOTE] That's the name of an IT teacher at my school. [editline]10:44PM[/editline] My name's pretty unique. I don't like it, it's an old person name :(

A celebrity named one of their kids "Radioscience" :downs:
My name is Mark. I don't know many people with funny names, closest if a friend named Jesse. He looks like a really fat, butch lesbian. And my best friends initials spell "MATH". He's good at Maths.
I'm going to name my daughter Aerith. Nothing's changing my mind so far. If I have a son he's gonna be Alex jr because my real name is Alex
