Texan_Til_I_Die Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 I work at a teaching hospital and we just had a new group of student nurses report for duty today. While I was setting up their computer accounts, I noticed several names that I thought y'all might find interesting. We have a Schandrena, a Mercy, an Edelyn, a Laine, a Solunda, and an Edwina. And these are all first names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParrotHead Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Re: Thought I\'d Share A Few Names Schandrena? With government schools today I can only guess it was the 9th grade before she learned how to spell that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarvDog Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Re: Thought I\'d Share A Few Names Wow! Definitely unusual. I was named after before of my grandfathers: James Ersel and Floyd Martin. I ended up with James Martin. Thank the Lord they didn't go with Floyd Ersel.

coles Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Re: Thought I\'d Share A Few Names i had a girl in my class in high school and her name was Edwina Pechia. man her family we weird. they taught bow hunters saftey and of course when my brother and i were taking it my dad would come with us and take it too just for the heck of it since he was grandfatherd in. well my dad has been bowhunting since he was a teenager and has alot of experience. so he would give them some input on what they were teaching and comment on stuff he knew and they pulled him aside one night and told him to shut up and leave the teaching to them when all he was doing was participating in the class. they were the kind of people that sued anyone for everything. they called the cops for some kid comming in their yard on halloween trick-or-treating.

Tominator Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Re: Thought I\'d Share A Few Names I've had a few doozies in my classes over the years including: Julia Roberts, Steven King, Britney Spears, and Dennis Hopper. I've also had: Cinderalla (sic) and Cinnamon Brown My favorite last year was Johnny Panovsky. Use to tease him all the time that he should be on The Sopranos with a name like that. Oh, and Parrot, all of them knew how to spell their names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
