Two that come to mind are Chip Monk and April May June. Also we had a boy named Sixx in our school. What are people thinking? I work in a school and some of the spellings for their children's names are very creative. Makes me wonder if they really know how to spell.

I'll be darned! My husband and I grew up in Iowa, and he used to talk about knowing a girl named Fonda Dicks. What are the odds there would be two? In Iowa?
