REALLY REALLY WIERD BABY NAMES! - For nix4noles (Moxie CrimeFighter info)

Found this on Moxie CrimeFighter:
"Penn Jillette, the talking half of comedy/magic duo Penn & Teller (shown here), has named his new baby girl Moxie CrimeFighter Jillette. “What the #%@&?!” you ask. Jillette explains: “We chose her middle name because when she’s pulled over for speeding she can say, ‘But officer, we’re on the same side.’ My middle name is CrimeFighter.” Who will put this man in a straitjacket, dump him in a sealed tank of water, and throw away the key?"

And some of THE WIERDEST--IMHO:

Indiana August (Casey Affleck and Summer Phoenix)
Fifi Trixabelle (Paula Yates and Bob Geldof)
Moon Unit (Frank and Gail Zappa)
Apple (Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin)
Satchel (Mia Farrow and Woody Allen)
Peaches (Paula Yates and Bob Geldof)
Tiger Lily Heavenly Hirani (Paula Yates and Michael Hutchence)
River (Arlyn and John Phoenix)
Dweezil (Frank/Gail Zappa)
Zowie (Angie and David Bowie) ZOWIE BOWIE?!?
Phoenix Chi (Mel C and Jimmy Gulzar)
Banjo (Patrick and Rachel Griffiths)
Chester (Rita Wilson and Tom Hanks)
Cosima (Nigella Lawson)
Daisy Boo (Jamie Oliver)
Dexter (Diane Keaton)
Racer, Rebel, Rocket (Robert Rodriguez)
Willow (Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith)
Zola (Eddie Murphy)

I also knew a kid named Ransom.

ashtonsmama replied:
I agree-Zola is kinda cute, and I used to nanny for a family who had a little girl named Rivers, and a boy named Leif.
And I forgot Pilot Inspektor...

You knew some wierd kids!

C&K*s Mommie replied: Thanks for the clarification Amanda! I was thinking for a minute that I was slow to catch on to a joke or something (speaking of which that would be another nickname for me for Missi's post about screen names: "slow to understand the punch line" )

Some of those names I heard before, but some are new. And well.... unusual.

After reading once about the reason behind "Unit" for Frank Zappa, I actually like it. He was quoted as saying because at the time she was the first of the children they would go on to have, thus the first lended itself to "unit" meaning "one". I like it.

luvmykids replied: I actually really like the names Apple and Willow, especially after Gwyneth explained the reasoning. There are really only a few of those I think are really bad, including Moxie Crimefighter.

C&K*s Mommie replied: Moxie.... bad memories of that drink I sampled the other day.

kit_kats_mom replied: I still think that "Faginal Dickey" wins all bad names contests hands down.

BAC'sMom replied: My children's names look almost normal after reading that list.

ashtonsmama replied:
You're crazy!

To each his own. Moon Unit?

FAGINAL DICKEY?!? That should be illegal! It sounds so wrong!

PrairieMom replied: I went to school with a
Liberty
Ivor
INjustice ( how mean is THAT)

BAC'sMom replied: I went to school with a girl named America, and she had a cousin named Tejas. And my sister has a friend who's name is Loveless, then when he had a son he named him the same thing.

ashtonsmama replied: WHAT THE HECK ARE THESE PEOPLE ON?!?

Nina J replied: Daisy Boo is such a cute name. I really like it.

If I have another baby and it's a girl, I'll name her Claire Bear Not really, although when we do have our next baby and it's a girl, her name will be Claire. DH doesn't know this yet

TANNER'S MOM replied: Well my real name is Melba.. hate it hate it hate it

But I like August.. it was a middle names used up there!

I have a cousin named Ryder.. to me that is a little different. Like Ride her.. I can't get that out of my mind..

I went to school with a girl named Rein...like you use to ride a horse. A girl named Shoshanna..and a boy named Blue Mhoon.. his parents owned a cattle company.. and we used to sing him all the sappy songs.

My friend is having a baby..and her husband is a calf roper..and she is wantign to name her baby if it's a girl Dally Leigha. Dally is what you do when you wrap the rope around your saddle horn so they horse can work the cattle.

garrettsmom replied: I'm sorry, but what are parents thinking!!!

I went to school with 2 brothers named Speak and Read
