From the book Freakonomics:
Roland G Fryer Jr, while discussing his names research on a radio show, took a call from a black woman who was upset with the name just given to her baby niece. It was pronounced shuh-TEED but was in fact spelled "Shithead"...

- As a medical professional I see ALL kinds. Lets see - just yesterday - Naekendra, Brucetta, etc etc. I could go on. WTH would you do that to your kid. You are already putting him/her at a disadvantage in life.

Living in Miami you get some very creative people and their names. A lot of cubans give their kids weird names.. examples of some i know FOR A FACT..
Usmail = U.S. Mail
Usnavy = U.S. Navy
Acirema = (pronounced: Ah-See-Rem-Ah) America (backwords) a girl i went to Elementary/Middle school with.
There are more... but i'm havin a brain fart.

I hear weird names all day long. Espen (for ESPN, Im not kidding you), Hennessy, Keyshawn, etc etc......
They are getting weirder and weirder (the names).....then you got the verbs, adjectives, and ingredients....chastity, peaches, etc etc.
