I went to middle school with a girl named Notuaca (pronounced "Nautica"). She's a drug addict now.

doubly. I've known in my life a Michael Michaels and a Sammy Samuels. I'm sure there are also, James James' (actually a character on Newsradio was Jimmy James, HA.), Stuart Stewarts, so sad, and not very imaginative parents either.
I killed the boss, you don't think they're gonna fire me over a thing like that!!!!

My cousin is a doctor with parents with new borns. During their break they were shooting the breeze by talking about the interesting choices parents picked to name their kids. One of them was named clamidia.
It got her husband to come up with some funny one liners on the subject.
I did square dancing in gym and I got stuck with clamidia.
I went the the prom with clamidia. Although, I do think that clamidia is something you would come back from the prom with not go to the prom with.

I had a roommate in college named Hyman. He shorted it to Hy, though.

I've also heard of (although I don't know if it's true or not)
Abcde
pronounced:
AB-sidee
I went to school with one (a girl- don't know if Abcde is also a boy's name or not), and there are a few others that I know/heard of- Abcde (yep, the pronunciation is correct) is apparently a not-unusual name in Hawaii...

Oddly, I know two people with similarly bad names. The first is Betsy Ross Pig. The second was Myrna Pigge (pronounced pi-GAY) She married a man named Joe Banks and decided to hyphenate to Myrna Pigge-Banks. I know this sounds made up but it's absolutely true.
The worst real name I ever heard was Ethel Thayer.

A client I once worked with told us once that her mother's maiden name was Fat. Our client's name was Assle. Her mother decided not to hyphenate.
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married.

I read recently of a sister and brother called Praise and Praymore. Not quite as bad as the baby called Sephiroth or the little girl called Aryan Justice, but still enough to make me want laws where if the name you have chosen for your child is too stupid, the registrar is allowed to slap you and refuse to register it until you come up with something that's actually a NAME.

I don't care what that page says, Kringas, I swear to you that I did know people named SH*Thead (shih-theed) and female (feh-mall-ee). Personally!

Personally, I would hate to be the heavy guy in a boy band named Joey Fatone (pronounced Fat One).
I knew a girl named Candy Cane.
My dad dated a girl in college named Sandy Beach. Also Ingaborg Hockhauser. He said her good looks made up for that name.
If I had been born a girl, my parents would have named me Phoebe. Thank GOD I was born a big gay dude instead.
Other names on the "don't" list:
Beulah
Hortense
Henrietta
Chlamydia Champagne
And guys shouldn't be named Francis, Leslie or Dana. Or Fauntleroy.

To go with b12b's Candy Cane, I once knew a Barb Wire and there is rumored to be a family in Pittsburgh called the Butts. Harry Butt and Fanny Butt, apparently.

My grandmother (my father's mother) made up middle names for her two daughters by combining the names of other relatives. One of the names is Anarebion (pronounced An-uh-REE-bee-in), the other I can't remember. My cousin continued it by using Anarebion as her daughter's middle name as well.
My father didn't get off much better; he was the first born and therefore ended up Eldridge Eugene, Jr.
