There's a law firm (I assume it's a law firm, at least) where I live called "Dick Hunter and Associates". And you just know he didn't go with "Richard" because its so memorable as it is.

Ben Dover and Harry Hole comes to mind. Seriously. Who names their kids those kinds of names?

Also having the same surname and first name is also pretty bad.

Working where I work, I get some ridiculous names. I've only recently started writing them down. There has been:
Stoneisha
Kadidja
Milady
Yomajesty
Jamahalicia

But the worst I've seen was from a fellow who sounded like he was at least in his 30's with the name "Freedom Toweh" I kid thee not. Not sure if serious. He was eithe trolling or his parents were trolls.

It's nice to know that in some countries (like Sweden) it's actually illegal to name your child something that could be the source of psychological stress/trauma.

Personally I haven't come across too many weird names, unless you count "English" names given to ppl I've met during my upbringing travelling in African countries. There, it's not unusual for people to give their children "poetic" English names. (Examples: Lightwell, Beauty. Basically, take words that actually mean something and make some quite beautiful names out of them, rather than generic names that don't mean anything anymore).

I've known guys with hideously long names (who gets christened with three hyphenated names and a triple-barrelled surname?! Seriously?!), but thankfully no-one with idiotic names.
Oh yeah? Tell that to the former German minister of defense, <url=http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl-Theodor_zu_Guttenberg>Karl Theodor Maria Nikolaus Johann Jacob Philipp Franz Joseph Sylvester Freiherr von und zu Guttenberg! Granted, being an aristocrat normally kinda lands you with more than one name, but that's just ridiculous.
Well, the guy in question is French (hence all the hyphens)... =P

Anyway, you can tell that minister's a Catholic, never understood why they got 'Maria' and 'Joseph' among their middle names (usually, regardless of gender). Still, I love German noble styles, one of the reasons being you don't get 'of and at' or 'by' in any other language. IIRC, though, 'Freiherr' is treated purely as name, not a title...(?)

I can't quite remember her name, but I think there was a new girl at a lower year in my school called Princess Bagsack.

I use to go to school with "Gorim Jones", and "Riamwii Jones".

I think that the whelsh surname just makes its perfect. Their names are completely unique because they are both a mix of their parents names.

The Dad was called Gorin or something, and the mum was Rima. (I'm not sure the wii came from haha)

I would totally name my kid Atticus, because i think it's a great name, but know they will more then likely get picked on for it.

Harry Hole, as in the fictional character from a bookseries by Jo Nesbø?

Or an actual person named that?

I know that the fictional character name is pronounced differently in norwegian, the original language the book was written in.

I still pronounced it in english, though.

I know a little girl with the name Alchemy, but I'm pretty sure that name is super bad-ass :p
