> [@Beckdawrek](#): > > No one has brought up that Kim and Kanye West’ s kids names. I mean how ridiculous can you get. Well, “celebrities” can get away with more than normal people can, I suppose. “North” is far from the worst celebrity kid name I’ve heard of (e.g. the Zappa kids…). Re “Decimus”… there’s the old joke about the family whose three kids are “Primus”, “Finalis” and “Oops” 🙂 ---

Local kid in high school was known as Chuck C. Clifford. Found out at graduation his legal name was Clifford Clifford Clifford III. Haven’t seen him in 50 years or so. ---

Just saw an article where a thief was named Luke Sky Walker (birth name). Hamill even commented on it, criticizing his parents instead of him. ---

> [@gkster](#): > > José María is a fairly common name for men in the Hispanic community–or at least it used to be 40+ years ago. I don’t know whether parents are still giving this name to boys nowadays, but I’ve heard of numerous men from Spain, Latin America and the Philippines with this name. > There’s even a wikipedia article on it: [José María - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Mar%C3%ADa) > > Shirley used to be a last name or man’s name, until the 1850s and the popularity of Charlotte Bronte’s book _Shirley_: > “Before the publication of the novel, Shirley was an uncommon – but distinctly male – name and would have been an unusual name for a woman.” Ashley and Leslie too. I knew two guy Leslie’s at my former workplace! Also it didn’t hit me that Jose Maria Olazabal, the golfer…I thought his secondary surname was Maria. And not sure if mentioned, Governor J. Hogg of Texas named his daughters, Ima Hogg and Yura Hogg ---

> [@Spectre\_of\_Pithecanthropus](#): > > I’ve heard of “Boy” being used as a nickname. Was his mom Sandra Bullock? Seriously though, when people give their kids these… Umm… “Creative” names, do they seriously not consider how these will look on a resume someday? I’ve never been in a hiring position, but I imagine if I got a resume that said “Princess Consuela Bananahamock” it would probably wind up in the shredder. ---
