Jennifer should be banned for a generation. There are roughly 20 billion Jennifers in the U.S. now, since unimaginative parents named every 3rd girl that for about 8 straight years.
If I were going to change my name I would become Francois LeReaux or give myself one of those cool male Russian names, like Sergei or Vladimir.

I worked with a guy once whose first name was actually "Junior". Apparently his parents were a little unclear on the concept.
Edit: Candidate for most unfortunate name ever: a great guy who now goes by Sam Lu. He was a friend of my sister who moved to Canada from Vietnam as a refugee when he was a kid in the early seventies. When he was being processed by Immigration Canada, he told them his actual name and the officer advised him to change it to Sam. What was that original name you ask?

Gertrude, horrid name. The most alarming thing is, that if I was a girl, she wanted to call me it  Deed poll would have been used a long time ago if I would have been a female
Other awful names:
Archibald (just silly)
Liam (sounds too 'council estate')
Damien (eughhhh, simply horrible)

Having that name pretty much seals up your future, doesn't it.

I mean, when these people grow up, are they still going to be called "Tyler"? It's a cute name for a 6 year old, but not for a 40 year old.

Hey now, there's absolutely nothing wrong with "Kyle". I don't think it's a cute name at all. All the other ones I see your point, though.

Bethany Beach is very nice. I used to go to the Deleware beached a lot when I was a kid. Mostly Rehobeth.
Of course, nice as the beach was, I'd never name a kid Rehobeth.

I always that Olga was a wierd name. Speaking of strange names I once meet a woman who named her daughter "Stardust". She must have either been stupid or hated her child because the poor thing will have to go through her entire life being teased and taunted because her mother wanted to be a trendy hippy. I can only hope the child had a normal middle name.
On another note I read about a family with the surname Wall who named their son Stone. Kind of funny but not as far out as Stardust.

Did you know that the 1939 New York City phone book had almost as many people with the first name Adolf as it did James? In 1994 there were only three people listed named Adolf and all of them were very old.

In Finland, names Unelma, Sirpa and Leena are all perfectly fine girl names, but when put together ("Unelma Sirpa Leena) they spell out "broken dream".
Apparently, some couple who had hoped for a boy had named their girl just that...

Hmmm... I was almost (but not, thank god) named Rhett. Eeww.
A friend of mine almost was dubbed 'Lek'. That would have been terrible, as his last name is already bad: Petrusaitis(pet-ra-site-is) sounds like a disease
