I remember from the book Freakonomics the girl's name "Shithead" (pronounced Shaw-teed).

I actually had a male student named that. It was terrible. Other great ones I have encountered:
Morereese's-(because when his mom was pregnant with him she wanted "more reeses peanut butter cups")
Poetry Royal III (a boy)
Princess Divine (apparently they wanted her to be ready just in case she went into porn)
Crystal Cleer
Rita Book
Rocky Balboa
Buzuka
And there are more, but those are the ones that stand out.

A pregant Derry woman is in a car crash and spends 9 months in a coma. She comes round and the doctor tells her that she is the mother of twins, a girl and a boy.
"We had to give them names and we asked your brother from Donegal to do it for you" Said the Doctor.
"Surely you didn't ask that eejit?" Screamed the woman, "He's as thick as shite!"
"What did he call the girl?" She asked
"Denise" Replied the Doctor
"Hey thats not bad, he's not as thick as I thought!" Answered the woman, "And what did he call the Boy?"
"Denephew"

At least it wasn't the patient's first name! Although, I guess technically it could be both....Duran Duran Smith, paging Duran Duran Smith...

Oh! I had a boss with a very fitting name. Michael Hunt, but he went by Mike. That was fun.

I've probably posted this here before by my daughter has a friend named "Evening" (who also has a brother named Dashell). Poor girl. Her parents are from the 60's I believe.
My missus also works for Prudential and saw a newsletter last week quoting the Vice President of Individual Life Insurance, who's name was Rich Brugger, which is so nearly a great name it's worth posting.

On that same line of thought, Nick Rhodes from Duran Duran's real name is actually Nick Bates, so of course, in school he was always know as "Master Bates".

Working many years with the public, I have come across many crazy names...Harry Butts, Cherry Virgin, Justin Case, ect...I also had a man change his name to Virginia (don't remember the last name) and another that changed his name to Llando Calrisian (sp) from Star Wars and one that wanted to change his name to a number...7 I believe. Amazing....
