Hopefully you’ll have an unlucky day!
True story. A Korean girl in my grade 10 class was named Ding My Dong.
My neighbors named their triplets: Faith, Hope and Richard.
Sometimes last names can have some strange results. I knew a urologist ..Dr. Dick. However you can also find some interesting names in your family tree. I have maternal grandmothers named Sophrona and Mahitable.
“True story. A Korean girl in my grade 10 class was named Ding My Dong.”
I’ve got a girl named Rama Lama Ding Dong. She’s everything to me.
Just on a side note, I find the name “Luke” to be very masculine sounding. I love the name! Just a thought.
“But I was going into Toshi Station to pick up some power converters!” - not masculine
I worked with his uncle, Hugh Jardon.
Yes, if she has an eight figure trust fund and hangs in those circles.

We had an female officer in our unit whose last name was Burger. She was dating a fellow officer whose last name was King. Can you imagine a Burger - King wedding? She was also a very nice lady.

I have to chuckle at the lack of creativity in naming children sometimes, or at least some thought should be given at reviving ancient naming customs, where men are simply named “So and So” son of “ So and so.”
My scottish husband has relatives named Lachlan Maclachlan, and knew a Magnus Magnuson...
I made a snide comment to him about it... but then I ended up working with a John Johnson...
Yes, Scout was the girl’s name in To Kill a Mockingbird.
BUT, it was a nickname. I think her name was something like Jean Louise Finch.
Of course, in this day and time, we dispense with the “real” names and just give the kid a nickname.
I had a friend whose given name was “Ed”. Never did figure out what his parents were thinking.
She actually also dated a guy whose last name was Furr. Can you imagine if they had a Furr - Burger wedding? That is the kind of thinking Mr. Furr actually had.
I was a bit of a hellion ☺
