Today, I learned that if not for my grandfather gifting my dad $200, I would have been named Anthrax. FML

'Cause you know, that is definitely a name your kid won't be made fun over. Go treat your grandfather with something really nice, OP.

You know, that name could have been pretty awesome during the 80s. Then again, it would probably have brought you a lot of unwanted attention around 2001.

If this were ancient Pompeii, that would be completely normal.

My daughter will thank me one day for giving her a normal name. Some of the kids names in her classes over the years: Montana Stormy Winter Thorin Black twins named "Mahaa and Beebah" Neesar Nassar (palestinian kid). Pronounced 'Neezer Nazzer'

#42 > I agree some of the names you quoted are strange but don't judge the foreign names you don't understand. I have an Arabic name too and I am French. My name sounds really odd to most people but they find it really cool too. It has also a very sweet meaning and although it was kinda difficult at school when I got nicknamed with silly words, I love it now. And kids from my school who had very common names got nicknamed too. It's just what kids like to do.

If it hasn't been for a coin flip my dad won, my mom would have named me Peekaboo Margaret. Not so bad now hu

It would have been a nightmare for you to fly, put anything in the mail, receive anything in the mail, apply for jobs, internships, colleges. Your parents would have been inconsiderate brain dead trash to give you a name that would ruin your future, the good news however is that you could have had it legally chained as soon as you were old enough to do so.
