Baby Names

Odd names around your workplace?

I have a few.

Comfort, Princess, and Kashmere. Never thought of any of these to be names of people.. cat or dog yes..

    Yes! me too,

    There are also some people from Africa and Cuba. I don't even know how to begin pronouncing their names half of the time, let alone trying to spell it. HAH

  • Of the staff.. teachers and support staff.. nothing is jumping out at me. I could make a long list of student names, though.

    Preshus and Mahogany are two that immediately come to mind.

  • Another teacher here.. Faculty and staff have pretty normal names. I teach intervention so I see kids from all grades. The oddest names I have are Camri and Camry (yes, I have two of them!), Titan, and Ryquer.

  • I worked with a lady named Dorcas. I know it is a biblical name, but I just can't get on board with it. She was about 32 years old and very confident, but for some reason I see that name being hard to carry as a child.

     

  • Since I teach in an urban school, I can't count the number of "odd" names.  They surround me.

    I know a Kamri.  She is one of the cutest little girls I have ever met.  I never would have guessed there were more though.

  • Some kids that I worked with in the past....Cherry, Princess and Angel.

    I know a Dorcas and thought the same thing. Kids are mean.

    Yup. Me too.

  • I'm lurking tonight and usually stick the TTGP board, but I have to post on this one.  We had a student last year named Pimpterious!  Oh and a few years ago there was a Nosmo King........the mom apparently saw a "No Smoking" sign and thought it sounded nice as a name!

    I can't believe people don't think these things through!
