lol! A kid in my sister's former class is named Ram Ze'ira, which • literally
means "tall shortie". Talk about oxymorons! ;-)

With the names some parents lump on their kids (time to lay off the

Pete.C, what about the state member of Parliament in New South Wales who is
called 'Richard Face', who prefers to be addressed formally !

Yeeeikes!  ROTFL!!!

I'll bet he doesn't like it when people mouth off to him either.  ;-)

I can't believe his parents doing that.
One Sydney newspaper news/satire/gossip column continually referred to him
by his less formal name when doing items on him !

My high school's stock substitute teacher: Dodd Gammit.  He had learned to
never actually tell anyone anything but his first initial, but his full name
appeared in the yearbook.  I would have changed it at the first legal
opportunity.
