I went to school with a gal who married a man whose last name was Bunch.

When they had their first child, they named him (it makes me sick):

Brady Bunch.

Poor kid, poor grown man.

I've also known someone named April Showers.

The names parents put on their kids.  Unreal.

And a man once called a local radio talk show, and say his name was Al Coholic. The show host acted as if he believed him, but l don't think so, lol.

My my husband worked with a man named Peter  D*I*C*K..that must have been awful growing up .....

@SeaMaiden: The NY Mets had a relief pitcher in 2009 named J. J. Putz. He was traded from Seattle. In NY, everyone knew what his surname meant...

Our neighbor's first name was Kitten.  It wasn't a nickname either.

I had an orthodontist named Dr. D*i*c*k.  My co worker and I would chuckle about it, because she took her children there too.  I almost broke out laughing everytime I had to call their office and hear them answer the phone that way.  What an unfortunate name to have, but he was a good orthodontist.
