a friend in NYC named his son Zap. I always thought it deserved an exclamation mark.
names in Brazil are even more out of control. The best story came from my brother, who told me he met a young lady once named Xisaleire. It's pronounced:
Most memorable, the young lady named "Vagina". When a co-worker called out the name, Vagina's mom corrected her tersely, saying "That's Va-GIN-Ya!". But trust me, it was still spelled 'V-A-G-I-N-A'.

I once encountered a Vietnamese gentleman whose name phonetically said "fuck them deep". I will refrain from spelling it out for the sake of privacy and personal liability due to the nature of the encounter. Very nice man, he just immigrated to a country that spoke the wrong language...
My name means 'diarrhea' in Japanese. My name is Gary... if you google the Japanese word for diarrhea you will see that it is 'geri', so spelling aside, I am indeed the shit. And it gives me carte blanche to make fun of all asian names forever.
