Leann

Given that the 'a' is not capitalized, this woman's name is Gaelic for "Beer."

This is a good illistration of what is wrong with our country. I fell sorry for the Kid. This is proof positive that the parents are not ready for parent hood. How pathetic...... This reminds me of the hippes in the sixties naming their kids Moon or Sunshine. How about Hollyweird today? Gwyneth (I am a dunce) Paltrow named her kid Apple.

I remember reading a similar story a couple years ago. The catch was that the husband had to prove that it was a real name in some language, and he did.

Elaine: We gotta see the new baby anyway, at least we'll get a weekend in the Hamptons out of it.


Jerry: Didn't they just have a baby?


Elaine: That was two years ago, remember? 'Jeh-Ree, you gotta see the Bay-Bee! You gotta see the Bay-Bee!'

I went to school with a gal whose legal given name was B.J.

This was about 35 years ago, so it didn't have the vulgar conotations it does now. But we all still thought her parents were pretty stupid for not givng her actual names.
