we have a lot of murders here in my fair city. Virtually all are committed by blacks. A local online newspaper always prints the jail bookings, and some of the names are hilarious. This is my favorite of the week Demetrius Aponcedeleon Hardy, 21, was indicted by a Grand Jury in the fall of 2020 for first-degree murder for the shooting death of Kayla Jackson and the attempt to murder two additional people on March 7, 2020, in downtown Gainesville.

Best name I ever came across was a fellow named: Sputnik Eisenhower Watkins. By the name you knew what was in the news, and who was president when he was born in 1957.
His friends called him Nik.

'Bunny' is a somewhat uncommon Navajo last name. Knew a guy name Harry Bunny back in the day.

There was a kid in our high school named Harry Beaver.

The girl who lived across the street from me when I was a kid was named Dot Connecht. I thought that was pretty good.

There was a fellow in our BLM office whose last name was Dick. He was joking around one day and said if he and his wife ever had a boy, they would name him Richard and he would encourage him to become a biologist specializing in ornithology and study dik-dik birds, whence he would become known as Dick Dick the dik-dik doctor.

A friends son took his mothers maiden name when he joined the police department. Name tag would have been Officer Dick.

La-A.....
Ladasha. I schitt thee not.
I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.

Heard of a guy - not very bright - whose name was John Schitter. His collegues kept suggesting that he change his name.
He did - to Harold Schitter

There was an entomologist in the New England states during the sixties named B. A. Butt. His son became one too and signed off as B. A. Butt II. Finally, there was one in Florida named Dick Sprenkel.......the secretaries howled when tasked to send a package to Dick Sprenkel.

Regarding La-A, one of my wife's fellow teachers had such a student. When she asked the child's mother how the name was pronounced, the mother said "The dash don't be silent."
My wife had a student named Female. When she was born, the nurses put a name tag on the child's bed that said "Female, Jones", to indicate a female baby with the family name Jones, for identification purposes. The mother thought the nurses had named her. It stuck.
My best student name was Grisleydel.

I guess my question is why would a set of parents saddle a kid with a name that will affect them for life, or at least until the kid is old enough to change it? I know that it is illegal to discriminate, but you know darn well that people do. Say that you are a landlord and dozens of people call you. Are you going to dash off to show the place to Yolanda over say Judy or Sarah given that you don’t know any of them?

Because their parents are illiterate, drug infested, idiots. Jessie Jackson told them not to name their kids like white guys do it, so there you have it. When I was playing AA baseball one of our destinations was Jackson, MS. There was a dude in the phone book listed as [bleep] Jones, supposedly pronounced "shu-theeed".
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
