That’s true, I forgot about Chastity Bono. I don’t think the name worked out for her either. Any parents who name their daughter Chastity are setting themselves up for disappointment, I think.

When I was little I used to know a girl named Tuesday
Whoa! years ago I knew a hot, twenty year old chick with a delightful (and seductive) French Canadian accent named Tuesday. Unfortunately, at the time, I was just a bumbling, horny, thirteen year old.

My grand niece (who is part English, German, Irish, Italian, African-American, and Native American) is named Cierra (pronounced the same way) Colleen. Everyone calls her "C.C."

Those parents need to be smacked upside the head with a two by four!
Back in the seventies, when CB radio was all the rage, some neighbors down the street bought their son (who was twelve and whose voice had not yet deepened) a CB radio for his bedroom. He spent several days trying in earnest to think up a good handle. My eldest sister suggested "Eager Beaver." She told him that "beaver" was CB slang for a CB enthusiast. He bought it. That poor family had horny truck drivers pulling up to their house in the middle of the night for a week before they figured out what was going on.

We also have a family locally with the last name of Slutts. They thankfully did not have any girls.
I read one of them police blotter stories about an old man who kept calling police to complain about hookers playing horseshoes in his front yard. Turned out to be the yard across the street from him and the "hookers" were a family of five with the last name of Hooker. Every time I think of that story I conjure up an image of an old man scowling out his front window while a group of garishly clad (think streetwalker) hookers play a round of horseshoes. Cracks a grin every time.

This thread reminded me of that Steve Martin movie, The Jerk..... he names his dog Shithead.
Reminds me of the Bill Cosby line about how, when he was growing up, he thought his name was Jesus Christ – and his brother was Damnit!

One of my son's best friend's last name is Gay.
When I was in Junior High school we had a boy in our class whose last name was Gaylord. I do believe those were some very rough years for him.
