Have You Ever Come Across An Unusual Name

or names. There was a bloke on tv the other evening
with the name Charming Baker, which i thought quite strange.
I have come across other names that the parents hadn't thought about
when christening their child, such as Theresa Green.
do you have any you want to share, for a sunny afternoon..

Gary and Phil Nevilles' (TV Pundits - Ex Footballers) father's first name was Neville. Not forgetting Edward Woodward.

Edward Woodward had a sexy voice and could sing and was brilliant as the Equalizer, much better than that new fella!

Denzel Washington is a fine actor, I just didn't rate the film as much as the TV show.

I have met the following names - Precious, Lovely, Shital, Jermy, Gift and quite a few others but a lovely chap with a great family whom I have lost touch with was delightfully named John Thomas Dick. If you are out there John do get in touch...been years.

I contributed if the bBC correspondent Bala Krishnamurty married Christine McGourntey ( another Been hack ) she would be
Mrs Krishnamurty- McGurty

I have recently started watching 'Suits' where one Actress doubtless related to Kate is Tuppence Middleton

I once taught James Bond, who was the image of the Milky Bar Kid. OH once had Gary Baldy and Christopher Lee in a class and an ex-pupil called her baby Kyumi, she'd heard the name on an advert for a deodorant.
A friend was starting a new child in her school, he was called Gooey according to his mother, when she came to write the name down it was Guy.
Whatever name is chosen I wish they would learn to spell in, I've seen so many variations of Siobhan and Niamh.
