^^^^Real people that I know

Thats off the top of my head. Wait until tomorrow when I see some more of my ghee-toe friends.

This thread is very inspirational. How's this for names:

Son:
Jack Daniel
Heinekin (Heiny for short)
Abolute(Ab-so-loo-tay)
Bentley(Sounds like a butler)
Amaretto
Bacardi
Jagrmeister
Here are ACTUAL people who I know with these names:

Hanskabel*(Greek origin - no joke - spelled just like that)
Xenofanes*(pronounced zee- NOF - FAN- ez -- Greek origin)
Ashantay* (this is not Greek, of course - accent on the first "A")
*NOTE: male names

ok, here's a story...when I used to volunteer at the public library, I sometimes had to call people to let them know that the book that they requested has been returned. One lady's name was (I KID YOU NOT!!!) Dolores DeCabezas!
I thought it was a joke, but when I asked for her on the phone she said that that was her! I couldn't believe it!
Dolores - in Spanish the "direct" translation means "pain" (but plural) and DeCabezas directly translates into "of the head".
What's funny is that her name means "Headaches" in Spanish!

What about (just having a little fun):

Midouri (MID-OH-RY)
Alapatta
Mobetta
Hewlett
Pegasus
Demo
Potpourri
Resume (accent at the end)
Lowenbreau (Low and bro, lol)
Lex
Mardi
