Another jewel of a name I have heard was Chapel. It wouldnt be so bad if it were pronounced like Chanelle with a P (I said so bad. It would still kinda suck.) but no, it was pronounced Chapel as in a church.
On King of the Hill last night Luanne had her baby and when she was drugged up she said she was going to name her Lasagna. I didn't think anyone actually would do that. lol
Like the Italian dish, yes. Funnily enough, my mother and I both agreed it would have been a better name if it was pronounced differently but it wasn't. =/
*blink* Chapel...is just wrong. The things people name their children. *shakes head* I don't know why they don't just think a little bit about what life for them is going to be like. I'm all for odd names, but at least I don't go too out of the box.
Odysseus and Ma'keighhlea (siblings, both girls - I thought it was a weird combo. I don't remember how the McName was spelled, but it involved punctuation and about twice as many letters as necessary)
Velveeta - As in cheese? Porsche - Yuck Precious - Ew Princess - I know a Prince. Maybe they are meant to be. Corvette - All I can think of is my mother's old yellow car. Remington and Rockford - Remington's okay. Rockford is icky. And in a sibset? NO Colt - I think gun Unique - Yes, yes it is. Divinity - No Queenette - o_O Emerald - No too bad. Wouldnt use it though
