the strangest name i have ever heard

[willsjoy.livejournal.com]

My mom is a nurse in a hospital. One of her friends at work had a patient on Friday with a most unusual name, this is how it was spelled:

La-A.

Ladasha. Yeah. The dash in the name is pronounced "dash" within the name.

I was floored. I just sat there with my mouth open for a good 30 seconds. That is so not ok. Definitely the strangest name I have ever heard.

My co-teacher has a teacher friend who honest to God, has a student with that name. She showed her the class roster.

When her friend wasn't sure how to pronounce the student's name, the girl got very offended and said, "DUH, LADASHA!"

It may be an internet joke, but someone was probably lame enough to name their child that.

THANK YOU. I love how everyone things I'm lying or my mom's friend is so attention starved to make this up.

"Ladasha" is an actual name, with an actual meaning, according to several baby name websites. It isn't so far off to me that someone idiot would take that name and fuck with the spelling to be cre8tive.

You never know! As a teacher, I've seen some names that make my eyes pop.
