Could have been named after Cosmo Brown from Singing in the Rain.

Or Cosmo Kramer.

Giddy up :cool:

There is a young lad in the town I live called John Paul, seemingly normal name except his full name is John Paul II !! Yes that's right he is named after the pope and he is called by his full title. Would be a shame to leave out the II.

There were 3 brothers who played hurling for Tipperary a few years back - Colm, Cormac and Conal Bonnar. Nothing wrong with the names themselves but all in one family???

How so Joe

Family lives near me, one of the sons is Seán and the second son is John. Wouldn't be so bad, except they sent them to a Gaelscoil...

At least Frank Zappa had a reason of sorts..He was genuinely off his rocker, not like Victoria Beckham or any of the new 'celebraties.' They just choose sh**e names for the thrill of getting it in the papers I reckon. Apple and Moses, I mean come on...Gwenyth has no excuse other than pure up your own h**eness.

Harley Harold

Teyla Emmagan

One of my best friends called her daughter 'Missy'.

Took me a long while, but I'm coming around to it.

I've seen people sign their names as "Niki" or "Geri" etc and I always think the same thing..I bet it doesn't say that on your f'ing birth cert!

I know siblings named Emerson, Emer, Emile and Emmett. Kinda unusual maybe but at least it isnt your boring Sean, Maire, Liam and Margaret.

At my nephew's christening there was another boy being christened Luke.

But his parents spelled it Lucke. :rolleyes:

I used to get letters from the bank signed off by someone called Pidge Doody.

Craebear

FartingOnion, that's a weird name.

It would be funny if someone had the Ryan surname and named their boy Hugh,
Hugh Ryan.

I knew of a guy called Dermot McDermot.

Lisac220

I know someone called Hermelda, or melda for short

EBS? Pidge is lovely.

I think Pidge is a lovely name as well.

Of the celeb names, the ones I hate most are the religious ones. Like Nicole Kidman called her kids Sunday and Faith. Like what's next? Pray?

Ryan Ryan is a terrible name of a guy I know. What are parents thinking like?

But the one that took the biscuit was this woman I had to work with once. Her name was Sparkle. Her surname was Wisdom. Seriously I thought it was a prank at the start. Sparkle Wisdom!

Parents in West Clare who named their son Anakin.

I also used to live beside people who called their son Anakin. The two daughters were Gabrielle and Adara, which I didn't think were too bad (compared to others), but Anakin...for the love of God..

I know one of them! Always thought his parents must have been very cruel.

Mr Keek

Fella who came into the pub I worked at was called D'artagnan O'Grady, we just called him DT.

Another dude around the town is called Roger Rabitt, but he's an older gentle man, came in way before the movie.

We had a lad in school called Fursey.

At work I was talking to a lady who's marriage name was Mrs Phylis Stynes.

It is a religious word. In the context of naming a child Hope, it refers to the theological virtues
