ZSMICHAELYeah with a name like Henderson. Is he related to Florence?? His last name needs to be hyphenated so he can stand out from the crowd.

bertoI see he was named after the Greek god of keeping one’s pimp hand strong.

WaterburyBobYeah, I would have gone with 'Pimpticious' or 'Pimptimoneous'.

DLC762I always figured the parents just threw the Scrabble game across the room and piked up some random tiles.

OKCGeneI used to work in the home health care field, we had a lot of kids.
One was named His Royal Highness. I can’t recall the last name.
Pimptereus If I saw that on a job application or resume…… you guessed it.

SW_SigI used to work with a young lady named Heidi Mycock. She got married and changed her name to Mucci.

OKCGene^^^^^^ I was in Bozeman MT having a meal at the truck stop, waitress walked up to our
table and greeted us.
I lol’ed some, pointed at her name tag and said “Really, Seriously”.
She rolled her eyes, sighed and replied “Yes, my name is Golden Bottoms. My parents were Hippies and smoked a lot of weed”.
I felt I had to give her an extra large tip, just because. Poor thing.
.
Just remembered, back in the early 1990’s we had a customer who came in often, his name is Ben Gay. Really.
If you have money for nice vacations, new golf clubs, new toys, boats or scooters, why in the **** are you not in front of the judge asking for a name change?????

Pimptereus
All kinds of trashy jokes just write themselves. I would beg, borrow, or steal the funds necessary to get that legally changed, because it sure as hell isn't going on my gravestone.

I would like to apologize to anyone I have *not* offended. Please be patient. I will get to you shortly.

MikeinNCWhen I was policing I saw or heard every ghetto fabulous name you could imagine. Seemed like every generation had its thing…lots of 90’s girls named after “fancy” cars..ie Mercedes, Porsche, etc. then the next generation had some “African” name….lots of apostrophes or dashes…
Once I was watching Mrs. Mike go thru job applications while I was visiting her for lunch. If she couldn’t even begin to pronounce the name, it went right into the trash can.
I remarked that if I wanted my kid to get ahead in the world I’d give him a normal sounding name. Nothing that would immediately work against him.

SIGguy229Aside from true family names, some of these made up nonsense names should be considered child abuse. They don’t understand they are limiting their children’s futures with idiotic names. Sure—it’s cute when they are a baby…but I don’t think these idiot parents think about their kid graduating high school and the name gets announced. Maybe they don’t think about things like that…but then they complain about the lack of “generational wealth”. Stop limiting their options from birth with a nonsense name.
Otherwise, I’m not surprised to read thee names in a police blotter.

Wait. The “19” after “Henderson” might be a generational suffix?
What happened to Pimptereus Henderson, Sr., Jr., III, IV … XVIII?

ZSMICHAELKID in High school was named Peter Super. The teacher read the last names first and did not understand why all the kids were laughing.
A guy in the neighborhood was named Harold Butz. We shortened it to Harry Butz.

clubleaf206My sister once worked with someone named Listerene. I went to school with someone named Polly, she was the butt of the usual jokes about wanting crackers, etc. For a very long time she wouldn’t tell me her middle name, after she knew me for awhile and came to trust me she told me she was named for two of her aunts, Polly and Esther. I said oh my gosh your parents named you Polyester!?! She said they had never heard of it and apologized, mostly, for doing it.
I remember seeing a name in the paper, back when they used to print the court docket, his name was AntJuan. Yeesh.

fischtown7I worked at a car rental agency at the Atlanta Airport when I was in college, all names were checked against their Drivers license. We had a stack of copies of rental contracts of every imaginable bad name you could think of. Everytime we got a new one we made a copy and added it to the stack, during downtime we would go thru them for amusement.
