Ok, here is the situation.
I usually call a friend of mine at her workplace.
Her co-workers always ask whom is calling, to help weed out irate customer.
I have decided to start using odd unusual names when I can. I of course am not to bright and creative and would like to entertain some addition ideas.
Good idea, Arnold. If you don’t care if it is, or every could be for that matter, an actual name I would suggest looking in the dictionary and picking really off-the-wall words that aren’t used in everyday conversation. Like Ricksha Vim Teuton. ricksha or rickshaw: n. a small 2-wheeled Asian carriage drawn usually by 1 person
vim: n. ebullient vitality
Teuton: n. 1)a member of an ancient North European people. 2)a German

My best friend came up with these beauties for my then unborn child. Male: Tree trunk Zipperhead (Maybe only in California) Female: Cherry Poptart. I LOVED that one and actually tried to tell the Doctor it was her name, but I couldn’t keep a straight face.
I always liked the names Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis, Armand Hammer and Judas Iscariot. The latter is fun if you use it as a first and middle name and add a regular surname (Judas Iscariot Brown).
