We had a Ginger Snapp go through rush, too!

Also Autumn Winters, Autumn Star, a couple girls in the same year named Cinnamon, and a girl with the last name of a barnyard animal whose personality matched her name.

My fifth grade teacher started out the year as Ms. Bruce, but then halfway through the year she married a man with the last name Lee. So we started calling her Bruce Lee.

there was a veterinarian named summer wheat. in my small hometown newspaper, eons ago, there was a lady who wrote a column whose name was queen esther williams.

the athletic director at the school my kids attended when we lived in tulsa (it was pre-k thru 12) was charles brown, but went by charley.

a friend of ours who is a policemen swears that he arrested twins named, orangjelo and lemonjelo, but i think he was just pulling our legs.

Alize and Tanqueray....

I also went to school with celebs...

Michael jackson and Diana Ross...and if they were ever absent at the same time..someone would always chime in

They are on tour.

My sis in law named her newborn

Xevious...trying to be different...we are still gently trying to tell her she named him after an 80's arcade game.

I went to elementary school with a girl named Princess and another girl named Precious Joy.

There's a man that Mr. Pi Phi knows whose name is Dick LeClair, but when he introduces himself he always says his full name really quickly and it sounds like, well you know...

Did you scroll down on the first link that honey posted? Holy Moses! Lol that cracked me up.

Someone mentioned kids with similar names. My grandma's neighbors had 7 kids; 6 were girls, and their names all started with M!

Oh, and the Robert/Roberta thing...my boyfriend and I are Kristen and Chris. No one thinks it's funny unless the meet us at the same time. If we reproduce, I promise not to name my child Christine or Kirsten or anything like that.

I recall a sharp little second grader whose first name was Mister. He was smart - he signed his papers Mr.

My favorite name was Ivory Cloud. He should have ended up some sort of celebrity.

I worked with a woman whose grandmother's name was Ophelia Butts.

This is a true story.
I knew some kids when I was little, whose last name was Mintz.
Their names were Candy and Pepper.
