It is becoming more and more common to give our children unusual names. What are some of the weirder names that you have heard.
Oceana Vinyl is the oddest that I have heard
Big pet peeve: Creative spellings/made up names: I'm sorry, but most look ignorant. If you're considering one, you should read the name chapter in Freakecomics

Wow, working in sales, I've heard so many.
I think the one that sticks out was a customer named Jehovah Holy Spirit Jesus.

Well the parents can give their children weird names, but it's the children who have to live with the names, they have to take the jibes and the comments that will be liberally dished out at all stages in life to them. Maybe the parents should change their own names to something as exotic and see the results?

I have seen people with the same first and last names and I think that is really strange to give someone the same first and last name. It doesn't make sense to me to do that. I have probably seen many other weird names that I can't think of at the top of my head right now.

This one isnbt really unusual but something i would never name my girl. When I got pregnant, my boyfriend wanted to name her Harleigh. Lets just say i got to pick the name :-)
