Nasty Naming!

The inventor of the Lear Jet, Mr. Lear, reportedly named one of his daughters "Shanda". Nice. Then Kanye West named his kid "North". I half expected his next child to be named "Wild" or "Go". Frank Zappa stuck his kids with the appellations "Dweezil", "Moon Unit", "Ahmet" (how did that one slip in?), and "Diva". Long, long ago I went to junior high school with a Darlene Fuchs (a last name that everyone chose to say without a long "u" sound), and I currently have a female friend named (and I kid you not) Misty Beaver. What "nasty names" have you encountered?

I knew a Harry Kuntz in high school. The last name, pronounced like the author's; Koontz, was mispronounced a lot. My daughter-in-law taught a kid named Shithead. He pronounced it shi-thede.
