Reading these names I'm reminded of names that are pronounced different from their obvious spelling eg.
Orangejello( or-ran-je-lo)
Fragile ( fra- jollies)
And my favorite lol:
Shithead (sha- thead )
What names do you know like this and are these parents short on brain cells or what?

To be honest, I think those names are urban legends. See also Name Nerds: urban legends about names (http://www.namenerds.com/uucn/advice/urbanlegends.html). Which is not to say that Name Nerds is always correct, I just think they might be in this case =).

i am terrified to think these could be real names... if they are, the parents are sandflappers (as in, we have the gene pool... there are shallow swimmers and then there are sandflappers) and will be up for a darwin award one day, that is how dense they would have to be

lol ty it is my aunt's comment we coined when working in a government service building together. Some that come in the door are clearly Sandflappers.

La-a, obviously. Because that name is as likely as the names here; I think they're all just urban legends.

The only name to that effect that I know is not an urban legend is Lemon. (I remember studying the case of Arizona v. (Lemon) Johnson.) I'm pretty sure the rest are urban legends.
