Ok my mom named all her kids diff spellings and while it sucked sometimes in school, I loved that my name was spelled diff.
I wont go out of my way to rename a name for my kids. I watched a show on VH1 with my hubby about the worst baby names stars used and some of them had me laughing to death.
I forget who it was, but someone named their son
Pilot Inspector, but spelled wierd. I about died. Poor kid......

I would give a son the middle name "Danger"
Come on. How cool would that be?
"My middle name is Danger..."
I don't think I will find a husband who appreciates that kind of humor, and my family would be horrifed, but the idea gives me a good chuckle.
LOL.

I should introduce you to the former mr. honeychile - that's the middle name HE wants for a son! How do you feel about Chicago and being poor?

LOL.
Here's a name I wouldn't wish on a child: Chance. My former boss's son was named Chance. And then they had a very long and difficult-to-spell last name. Kinda ruined the romance-novel hero first name!

Chance to me sounds kinda like a dog's name. I do like it.... for a dog. But I agree, not for my children.

Billie Joe Armstrong (lead singer of Green Day) has a son named Jacob Danger Armstrong.
So, maybe there's another guy out there who would think this is cool?

After working in a school for several years, I have come across some bizarre & downright awful names. Here's the list of names of students I have actually had.
Texcuaquatle Tlatilolpa- It was a family name from Mexico but I felt so bad for this kid. His parents did not allow nicknames so we actually had to say the entire name.
Dijjoinnaisse - Pronounced just like the mustard.
Jail - Pronounced Ja-el
Prison - Pronounced Perison (brother to Jail)
Jehordahan - Jordan but obviously the parents couldn't spell to save their lives
Meat - Yup. That was the kids name.
Boo - This little girl had the middle name of Grace but she only responded to Boo.
Estrufino - ???
In middle school, I had the Height sisters. Autumn, Winter, Summer, and their little brother Leaf.

I generally think of the name Tristan as a "white" name. Hope that doesn't sound bad.
Like Brad Pitt in Legends of the Fall.

The funny thing is that they didn't get it when our school librarian asked them about it. They didn't seem to get that they named their kids after places you send criminals too. All they kept saying is that they aren't pronounced the way they are spelled. The librarian just gave up after a while.

Shithead has always been one of my favorites! A friend of mine taught Kindergarten years ago and this was the name of one of her students. They pronounced it Shi-tha-ed.
