Very strange names for children

Henrietta?

I went to school with Gay Gordon and Jane Eyre, a bit odd at first but we all got used to it and it was only new teachers who found the need to comment.

Is that you Havana?

Hermione?

Honoria?

Hildegard? Hannalore?

Chocolate pudding, how about Hellebore?

I lived in an African country and came across Hyphen, Friday, Blessing, Beauty and others which I forget, also old testament names were popular, we had Abraham, Misheck,Abendigo, Ezekial (most people go to church).

My middle name is Mountford because 'there 's money in the name'?? I never got the money though.
At the beginning of the school year, the whole class would wait with bated breath to see how the new teacher would deal with my first name. No one got it right, and one teacher had an argument with me as to how it should be pronounced

It's not Harper chocolatepudding?

We have a grand daughter who is Tegan and I went to school with someone called Barbara Watts Liquorice, her father was an officer in the Indian Army if I remember correctly but a of course she was asked the ? over and over again.

No correct guesses yet!

I have a fairly normal name but it could have been different. Before I was born my father was reading Knights of the Round Table to my brother and when asked what name they should give to his little sister he said Guinevere!! Fortunately my mother said no.

I once came across a little lad called Spanner!

How about Hortense chocolate pudding? Or Hermione, Henrietta, Hilda,Hattie, Hettie, Hester or Honor? Oh do tell us!

Versace McLatchie - I love it! I wonder if her dog is called Hairy McLairie?

In my youth there was a family whose surname was Leafe. They decided to have a mass baptism for their family, but the Vicar would not do it as they wanted to call the children Beech, Oak, Fern, Holly etc. He said they were not "Christian" names. Don't suppose he would get away with refusing nowadays, be infringing their human rights or something.

* chocolatepudding*. Hortense?

I once taught twins called Star and Amy! - apparently there were dozens of children and the father named one, the mother the next, so they had Venus and Odin, Peter and Susan...
MelONie was one of my favourites.
My son wryly commented that none of my grandchildren have "ordinary" names. Their choice, but GS's name is a bit hard to take, still... got used to it after 12 years.
chocolate - Hilda, Holly, Harper,Hafsa, Habiba,Harmony...?

Seb . I used to go to ballet classes, back in the day, with 'Poppy Summers' - very appropriate

Horatia?

This is so different here in Germany - there are very strict rules about what you are allowed to name your child.

I was told that the Irish pronunciation of Caitlin is Kathleen.

And for Chocolate pudding I throw Hermione and Hatchepsut into the ring.

David Bowie's son calls himself Duncan Sheilasue.

I know a child called Peter Innes.
P. Innes???

My two daughters love their unusual names and have given their children unusual names. Nowt wrong with it...why all the fuss...
