    A bad baby name could be a perfectly normal name, unless coupled with a last name that will cause a lifetime of grief.
    Sometimes parents don't see the obvious that others will see.

    I'm not kidding, check these out on 411.com, there are plenty:

    Harry Dick
    Harry Beaver
    Mike Hunt
    Mike Hawk (or Hauck)
    Barry Dingle (Last name first he'll always be Dingle Barry)
    Dick Head
    Harry Kuntz
    Seymour Buttz

    There are plenty more but I'm coming up blank at the moment, kinda like writers block I guess.

    I don't have a short temper, I just have a quick reaction to bullshit.

    There is some business owner my friend know's his name is Harold Bear. So instead of being tormented and being called "Harry (Hairy) Bear", they call him Buddy.

    A friend who teaches in a city school had a student last year whose name was pronounced Ah-Show-Lay. Problem is, it was spelled Asshole. No kidding.

    At least 6 listings for Connie, at least 10 for Jack Mehoff and 237 listings for Jack Hoff!

    Should we start a new thread instead of hijacking this one?
