I have come across some "interesting" names lately. :b There was recently a set of twins born at the hospital where I work and their names (even though I've definitely seen worse) made me and the other nurses roll our eyes:

---

(b/g twins) Alex James & Alexandria (brothers – Travis & Derrick)

---

Yes, they are Alex and Alexandria. They are currently calling Alexandria "Lexie" which makes it slightly more tolerable, but still...! That and the father constantly refers to the little girl as "Alexandra" when the mother (and birth certificate) have made it clear that her names is Alexandria. *smacks forehead*

Along similar lines, a lady at work said she has cousins that are twins, now 50 years old (female/male), named Emily and Emory. SHEESH!

One more story...
I was talking with a friend whose brother is dating a girl named Desa (rhymes with Lisa). That was odd enough, but then I find out she has a little girl named Freedom. Well, her name is Jeanetta (jah-NET-tah...guessing on spelling) Elizabeth Freedom Last-Name. The fn is after her grandmother, and the grandmother insists on calling the little girl, who's 2, Netta. How confusing! The little girl now has a baby brother named Skyler. :-
