Went to graduation tonight. There was kid named Sierra Sky Walker. Skywalker? Luke use the force! What were her parents thinking?
I went to school with a girl named Candy Cain.
Any other good ones out there?

Did one of your kids graduate?
My brother graduates Sunday afternoon. Last night we went to the senior academic awards ceremony - they gave out a lot of scholarships (some they do at graduation, but splitting it up shortens graduation by at least two hours).
My wife works at the county health department with the kids programs. She sees alot of screwed up names, typicaly just completely mangled spellings of normal names. A couple of weeks ago she got a good one. “Phoever”, yep just like forever except pronounced with an…uh…urban dialect.

Had a Major in the Air Force who named her daughter Mercedes Lexus. Why do people do this too their children?
God forbid I ever have a child of my own but if I do, the name is going to be Aramis Templer. (bot or girl, doesn’t matter) Just something about the three muskeeters and the saint I dig.
Templer? So you wanna tell me where the blood line of Christ is or are my Free Mason brothers gonna have to pay you a call?
Nope, I have another one next year. This year is was just a couple of family friends.
Bring the Free Masons on baby…Indiana Jones has nothing on me. 
actually the name (as far as I am concerned anyways) comes from the movie The Saint with Val Kilmer and Elisabeth Shue. If you have not seen it, its worth a rent.
I went to school with a kid in the fifth grade names Reed Boring. I also knew a family that their kids were named Feather, Skye, Forrest, and Sierra. They happen to be recovering druggies, and tree huggers to boot.
It is my opinion that you should not name your kid anything that would embarrass or prevent him or her from having a prestigous job. How could your kid become president of the U.S. of A with some goofy name like Turtle or some other ridiculous name that their parent thought might be cute or funny.
Mercedes is an actual name (I know more than one), but why they would pair it with Lexus is beyond me.

Funny when I was working in public accounting I was doing an audit of a detox center, and when reviewing patient files I came across one woman that had a daughter named Lexus Mercedes. She had two other kids: a son Cadillac and the oldest was John. I’m guessing she became a crack head after the first kid.
I knew a student named Sativa. I guess her parents were potheads before the first kid.
I love the name Mercedes!
A girl in the school I’m working at is named Cortlynd - like a cortland apple; her parents own an orchard. I like that too.
The name probably represents where each was conceived.
I came across “Pier Walker” in the corporate directory the other day.
years ago I saw a birth announcement in the local newspaper.
spelling might be off but the first and middle names were Neosephrine Nyquil - I kid you not. Years later I was telling someone about it and they had heard about the kid in school.
…actually met a girl when I was in college -
Charity Muff
…yup…for real…
Thats just friggin mean of her parents!
