I am a teacher and these names were of kids in some classes in my district.
1. La-ia PRONOUNCED Ladashia...that is right, this girls name is spelled and said with a dash.
2. Melvicbob. A combinations of the mom, dad and someone else. Yes, that is his first name.
*3. Shithead pronounced shi thead. My friend claims he saw the guys license to prove it. He was from another country.

CLARION works the cashier position at the grocery down the street. I figured it had to be Cla-reee-on, but no it's pronounced Clarion just like the stereo. There was probably a Clarion in full view of her mother when she conceived this child in the back seat of a car.

Just how many la-aa (or la-ia, or la-a) people are there in this world. I have now spoken with 4 different individuals claiming they have this person in their school district...
That being said... my husband works with a Golden Wang and a Johnson. (Just Johnson. No first name)

In a previous helpdesk support job we had a user whose first name was "Peaches".
He neither sounded, or looked, like his name would be "Peaches."

There was a fellow staff officer named Richard Glasscock.
Of course his "tactical callsign" was "Crystal Dick".
Some say "I can". Others say "I can't". Both manage to be correct.

The college next to my high school's principal's last name was Trebilcock - or, as one of my classmates used to call him, "Mr. Thriceblessed".

I met her sister once - and brought up the innuendo of Lucinda's name - the sister did not get it.
My wife thought I was joking with the name - till she met her.

My favorite Asian name was a kid named Eric Shun. Unlike a Wong or Wang, Eric's name issue was a bit more subtle. We called him boner.
I know a kindergarten teacher who had a couple of good ones like Abcde (pronounced Absudy) and Shithead (pronounced Sh'thead). For the later she called roll and purposely left off the kids name and then asked if there was anyone she missed.
