As is Adonis, which is the name of a failry known community worker around here.
A call in radio show was talking about the immigrant experience. A fellow who had immigrated from Greece and attended HS in the US was telling his experiences. His name was Adonis and the host asked if he was teased. He said no one at the school knew the word.
one of the worst jobs i've ever had out of college was designing junk mail for capital one. one of my bosses there was named jim butsavage. no joke... i thought it was french, and one day called him "mr. boosavaj" ... he held me after the meeting to tell me he appreciated me trying, but his name was butsavage and he was cool with it.
An old teacher of mine also used to teach in Thailand. I'm not sure of the spelling but he said he'd had students with names that were pronounced Turdsack and Pisshead.
I knew a dude named Trip...his brother's name was Graham and his sister's name was Sunshine.
Trip is a nickname for any one named the III. Harvey Canal III would be called Trip around here or Trey.
I think you may be missing the humor, which is all in the combination of those particular names in that particular order.
Hint:
There's a family here whose last name is Bornfreedom, and they've got three rangy boys named Almighty, Everlasting, and something I can't remember right now. If I was any of those kids' teacher, I'd have to start taking pills or something.
Overall, though, the most fucked-up name I've heard in a while has to be that of South African government flack Tokyo Sexwale.

One bloke we know (he's in A&R IIRC) called his son Max Danger, so he can say "Danger is my middle name". I assume that's if he makes it to adulthood. .
Ha ha, my friend nameed his son Chase Danger Thakkar, Best name ever! Maybe one day he will meet Max Danger for a showdown!
i suggested Harmonica for a friend who just had a baby boy. named after the dope Charles Bronson character. very hiphop/graf friendly: Harm-one. he called sterilize it into harmon. and if he was a tranny...monica. pretty dope. plus it would have boy named sue vibes, so he would most likely learn how to hold his own.
they went with Ike.
i remember reading that nas had someone in his crew called Wallet head
one of my former students found me on facebook but i didnt recognize the name...Logan V---hn. the friends we had in common led me to believe it was Rob. so i wrote back "Rob, that you? whats with Logan?" he responds. "yeah its me. Logan is my middle name. its awesome." enough said.
an old girl of mine has two sons named Grayson and Scotland. hated it!!!
Dovahkiin? And then they give him a middle name like "Tom". What a ring that has!
Though I can't criticize. They'll be saving $60 per year on Bethesda games, which more than makes up for the beatings and tauntings their child will receive.

Only in the beginning, though.
Triple entendre right there.

haha! That was cool of you.
"Well what did you name them? You didnt give them same letter names like Jimmy/Joey?
Cause that's not a healthy thing to do to twins."
You have to separate them. Cause it's bad enough they're twins.
We named ours... Gregory.
And Shmegory.
Which is just a coincidence. My father's name is Shmegory. And we've always loved the name Gregory.

She dismissed Filet out of hand but said she was willing to consider T-Bone and Ribeye for male middle names.
DO IT.
