HelpSome Unusual Name Encounters
Have you ever met a person with an unusual name combination (first & last names OR even first & middle names)? If not, have you ever seen an unusual name on the Internet or heard of one in your life travels?
When I was in grade school, there was a geeky and odd looking boy in my class who was teased constantly because of his name: Percy Peacock. I used to know a young woman in my old neighborhood who had a sister named Patience Esther.
One of my former work colleagues had the name of Lori Longbottom. Thankfully, it was her married name so she didn't have to grow up with it.
While scrolling on Instagram, I happened to stumble upon the name of author Polly Babbington. The name sounded VERY British to me and after a Google search I found out that - yep, she was born in England.
