The strangest names that children have actually been given

In the category ‘I will never understand this’, I have collected some bizarre names. From people who are still babies, but also from people who are now adults and hopefully have changed their name. Now you have some pretty strange names in the Netherlands that actually exist, but as always, everything is bigger and better (in this case worse) in America. And so this Reddit topic is pure enjoyment: ‘What’s the strangest name you’ve ever heard?’ Seriously, you can entertain yourself for hours here: this question is asked again every six months and there are thousands of responses. It was quite a task to make a selection of the worst, because this list is genuinely endless.
– ‘Shakespearisha: a girl who was in my school.’
– ‘I met a girl at the introduction at the university whose name was unfortunately Queefsala. Even worse was that her last name was Dumphry, so her name tag said ‘Queefsala D. And so a nice girl from South Carolina became known as Queef Salad.’ (In case you didn't know: a ‘queef’ is a vaginal fart.)
– ‘A boy in my class was named Prince. His sister is seriously named Princess…’
– ‘In elementary school, there was a boy in my class named Starbuck. Poor kid, the teachers never believed him.’
– ‘I know a girl named Kevin. No joke,’
– ‘Shithead. You pronounced it as ‘sha theed’, but you spell it as Shithead.’
– ‘When I worked at a restaurant, my boss and I went through some resumes and came across a girl named Nazi.’
– ‘I had a student in my class named Lizanya (pronounced exactly like you say lasagna).’
– ‘My grandfather's first name is H.K., which stands for nothing. He calls himself Bill. I have no idea why his name is H.K. and I also have no idea why he calls himself Bill.’
– ‘I once met a boy named Google. It took him three days to convince me that it was seriously his name.’
– ‘My girlfriend is a teacher and she has a child in her class named ABCDE. Right: all in capital letters. You pronounce it as Epsiedie.’
– ‘A little girl named Iloveny (pronounced as Il-uhv-ven-ny). Her parents didn't speak English but thought it was a beautiful name. They saw it somewhere on a poster: I love NY.’
– ‘A boy I went to school with was named Happy. His last name was also Happy. So he is called Happy Happy.’
– ‘Caviiilin (pronounced as Caitlin) after the Roman numeral eight: VIII. That poor girl has had to explain how to spell her name a million times.’
– ‘I once worked with a man from Singapore named Kiddiporn.’
– ‘I knew a girl named Velociraptor. It actually sounds pretty cool and they almost always just called her V.’
– ‘Suastiqa, pronounced as Swastiska. This was in LA, she was a very nice girl and she was very articulate. I just hope the name has Indian origins and not German…’
– ‘A girl at my school was named Cash'Monay.’
– ‘I knew a girl named Kerosene (pronounced as Kerroseni). The mother saw a can with ‘Kerosene’ on it and thought it sounded nice.’
