Well, we've all come across people with weird names..names which you as a parent would dread to name your child....

I appreciate your reply and views on this topic. It is not my intention to poke fun of others. Take this with a pinch of salt, lightheartedly, and without malice- just like how we should actually be taking other stuff on QL...

Again, if it has upset you personally, my apologies..But then, tomorrow, someone else may come up with other topics far hurting than these.. just don't expect them to be considerate.

Peace! V!

like Brave Lion, or Swift Eagle, well, Geronimo must have this kind of name too. Anyway, one day a small boy was crying because he so wanted to have a name like his idol who killed a bear. His father said, no way! Why can't I have a same name, the boy begged. What the hell you want a name like that for, his father asked.

His idol's name?...F***g Dog!! :)

So many names sound strange for other languages.  To make fun of names is the same as making fun on nation or culture (imho). I don't think that is the sign of intellect.

School friend of mine - Hancock (Hand + C). Sad part that it was his surname - maybe common in England but a rarity in India.Through school he was called "Hath mein bully"(HINDI)...

I'll always maintain that the worse name ever would be "Sukdeep"......prounounced as Suck....
