Imagine a kid having to grow up with the name Tasty Poi. Think that kid might be teased mercilessly and become a serial killer? I remember a kid I who went to my elementary school. He had a wierd name and was also decidedly geeky. He was a target every day, by everybody, even the teachers to some extent who never could get his name right.

This is a true story. My cousin, who was born, raised and currently lives in Hawaii, married the son of a hippie who had 5 kids (all from different dads). She named her three SONS (in chronological order) Peace, Love and Joy - Love, being my cousin's husband. She named her two daughters - twins, mind you - Fauna 1 and Fauna 2. :shock:

Funny thing is, they are pretty normal. Peace works in downtown Honolulu, Love is a professional surfer, and Joy is a Honolulu policeman. Not sure what the Faunas are up to...

They'd flip out if they had some of the idiotic names over here. Stallion is tame by comparison. Not much worse than Hunter.

I can't stop laughing at this. I've read it and re-read it a dozen times, and it's funnier every time.

You should see our family reunions.

Oh, I almost forgot, the Faunas always wear hats. :)
