If your parents saddled you with a peculiar, complicated or weirdly spelled name, you probably dreaded that first day of school, and your new teacher’s attempts to pronounce it.
And while celebrities have elevated the wacky baby name to an art form, making monikers like Apple and North see almost normal, we're still shocked by the seemingly endless list of strange first names that normal, everyday folks name their kids. Here are some of the strangest first names people have ever encountered firsthand, according to an AskReddit thread:
1.) Exzachary
"Because he was exazachary what they wanted"
2.) November Rain
"Or Nova for short. Yes her parents were Guns 'N Roses fans"
3.) Somewhere out there is a grown woman with the middle name Butter
4.) Doy
"Not Doyle, not Roy. Doy."
5.) "Christmas-Snow"
First name only.
6.) H.K. (but he goes by Bill.)
