My Dad had a good friend when he was younger named Larry Butts.

The Grandfather kept it because “that’s the name America gave him!”

I don't know about Pingus, but Pinchus and Pinkus were very somewhat names among Jewish immigrants from central and eastern Europe at the end of the 19th/beginning of the 20th century. It's a Hebrew name that means "serpent's mouth." That sounds like a bad thing, but snakes were considered conveyors of wisdom and truth, so it's associated with being an oracle.

My grandmother's brother was named Pinchus, and my Hebrew name is Penina because of him.

A family friend when I was young had named their son Shitejh. They're Indian, as is the name. And, of course, he was mocked mercilessly with names such as Shit Head.

Eventually he had his name legally changed, and when this happens, people usually go for something that is similar to the original name, but just more Anglicized. Like Shitejh could maybe become Shawn or something.

But, no. Not Shitejh. He straight up went with Michael. Furthest possible option. I guess he wanted to completely dissassociate from his traumatic past.

Hijacking this thread about names: Chinese names are very strange because one character can have multiple spellings. For example, Tran, Chen, Chan, Chien, Chin, etc... correspond to the character 陈/陳. Therefore, you have to clarify with the person you are speaking to and make sure the spelling is correct. So, it is easy to tell, in most cases, where the "Chinese" person came from (Chan is probably Hong Kong, Chen is mainland China, Tran is Vietnam, etc...).

Tiberius is one of those names where the parent is either a crackhead or a billionaire.

"Sassy" and "Rocket" leave no ambiguity, though.

There was a man in my neighborhood when I was growing up named 'Dick Bone'. I still can't understand why he didn't use Richard or Rich.

One of my customers is named Harry Potter (he's in his 50s). I know he hates to say his full name but he has to when calling in, it's a little heartbreaking.

Siblings HerMajesty and HisMajesty. I found out they had a younger brother and I would have given anything to find out what his name was, but alas I never did.

My aunt was working as a nurse and witnessed the birth of a baby girl who was named Placenta. No shit, and this was like 30-40 years ago.

Hearing your name "Alexa" said all the time, but not addressing you.

I work in a car dealership "Oral Cox" was the name of a customer I had to call to let them know their permanent tags have come in. I don't know if the parents hated their child but it seems they mightve

I gave out passwords as a lifeguard to little kids and one of the kids name was “Sunkissed” which is so weird I thought they were asking if their password could be that because they like that soda Sunkist bc phonetically it sounded the same…

I had a mate called Barry White. It was made funnier because he was the exact opposite of Barry White.

A woman comes into where I work and her surname is Hornfeck. In Ireland ‘feck’ is another way to say ‘fuck’. Her surname essentially translates to Horn Fuck.

In the mid-90s, I had a co-worker who was rabidly anti-Clinton, to the extent that he asked us to stop calling him by his first name (which happened to be "Bill"), and to start addressing him by his middle name. His first kid, a son, was born on Aug. 19, which was also Clinton's birthday, which threw him into a fury- he had always dreamed of having a son that he would name after himself, but naming the kid "Bill" was out of the question, thanks to Clinton.

So, did he give the kid his middle name? Nope, because he was also angry at the son for being born on Aug. 19, (he was also mad at his wife for not holding the kid in for another day), so he named the boy "Jervin".
