| stm8r1 wots a gerrymander?  i thought of another one... The son of Mr and Mrs Board could be Bill (Billboard) |

| just_moi, per Webster's, gerrymander is to redistrict or voting area to give unfair advantage to one party. I know, it was a stretch. |

| Great job with this on Just_Moi! You could have broken this one into 8 different teasers if you were greedy for points. Glad you did not, it is more fun this way. I have a few for you, how about Mr. and Mrs. Sled (or Cat) with Bob as the first name (Bobsled or Bobcat). Or Mr. and Mrs. Ahawk with Tom as the first name (Tomahawk), or Mr. and Mrs. Ynilly first name Will (Willynilly). Wait here is a better one, Mr. and Mrs. Urai first name Sam (Samurai).
Keep posting fun teasers like this. |

CoinMan
Jan 28, 2005
| That's absurd.
there are too many different answers, and in fact your last answer was just stupid. it's meant to be single words not phrases is'nt it? if i was making a phrase out of time i would have said "justin" or "oliver" or "phil"
but i was aiming for words...
these are my answers.
2) Matt or Tim
3) Jim
4) Heather
5) Chris
6) Sally
7) danni (i dont know anyone named dinah)

Araldite

| Now all we need is the right last names and then we'll be able to make our kids' lives miserable, thanks to this cute teaser...
I especially liked this because it reminded me of a friend who used to swear that her uncle Harry Butte was married to Barbie Queue.. Now I can one up her with these new names! |

| Neat, although I had "Anna Tate" (annotate) and either "Juan" = one or Summer Time. "Justin Time" is clever, but not sure it's a "word" really. |

bootscooter58
Jan 30, 2006
| I really enjoyed this teaser, and the comments are almost as good. In a serious note (I know, should I go here??) When my children were born they handed out a sheet of notes reminding you to look at the first and last names just to see whether or not you did names like this accidentally. "If your last name is Green, don't name your daughter Rose" That sort of thing, trying to help avoid this and save kids the pain. |
speediebean
Jan 30, 2006
| These were really funny, and I liked the other name suggestions given by others. How about Mr. and Mrs. Emia having a son named Luke? Or, Mr. and Mrs.
Unn and a son named Larrs??
Anyway, although I didn't get many of 'em right, I still enjoyed trying! And, I know that Justin person, he hangs round my place quite often! |

Jan 30, 2006
| This was a fun teaser. I should know about having a sense of humor about names, because our last name is Day. When our kids were born, we got suggestions for names like Holly if it was a girl, and Sonny if it was a boy. Or, Wendy... etc. Thankfully, we're not cruel parents and we gave them names that the kids wouldn't make fun of. |

Jan 30, 2006
| This was very fun! One of the funnest, I love it that people came up with their own, although I think next time just say: word, words, or phrases, something like that to avoid confusion.
I know a girl who was the granddaughter of Texas millionaire Wilfred Hogg, who of course named his two daughters Ima and Ura, this is absolutely true! The grandchild's name wasn't bad. I also went to church with Bunny Easter, and April Showers, again NO KIDDING, 100% true, I swear! Deb U. Tante, un, heck, can't think of anymore right now, Deb was a made up name , a "stage name" of a friend.
BTW, the poster above me, Day, are you by any chance Susan's brother?
Thanks for the great teaser! |

| When I was in college, we used to make up kids' names for guys we were dating. I thought it would be cool to marry Don See and name our kid "Jose Kenyu." I know - that middle name is a stretch, but we had a blast doing this. This teaser is definitely a FAVE! |

| To Shawneeo: No, I'm not Susan's brother. For one, I'm a female. Also, I'm not any relation (that I know of) to Doris Day either. (Are you thinking of Susan Dey, of The Partridge Family? LOL ... note the different spelling of the last name.
To Kimberlykay: My hubby's brother's former girlfriend, Dawn, has a sister named Holiday. (For real!) If my hubby's brother married Dawn, she would have been Dawn Day. If he'd married her sister, she would have been Holiday Day. How funny is that?!?! |

Jan 30, 2006
| I too loved it - I read these for fun, and this one certainly made me chuckle. I'm expecting a new grandhild, and am now going to suggest some names I've just thought of - all for fun of course.

Electronjohn, you also are very creative!
coin and huevos, you seem a bit tense. This teasers are meant to tease our brains not slap them with perfectionism. I hope you find some more fastidious teasers that you do enjoy.
Oh by the way I know someone who's maiden name was

| These were cute. I didn't get too many--tried too late in the day and my brain was tired. By the way, I have a friend whose daughter is named Dinah. I never thought of that as a strange name. (Of course, her last name was not "Mite") I did actually know someone who was name Candy Kane. |

| Pebbles77 mentioned that she knew a kid named "Justin Case." That's nothin'! I used to work at a pediatrician's office purging old files. Here are 3 names I came across that take the cake:
"Secret Level" (first name "Secret," last name "Level. I'm not kidding here, folks).
And, of course, there were the Deep twins, Ramem and Gagem. Can you believe that? What were the parents THINKING?!? The worst part is, if I remember correctly, one of the twins was male and the other was female. I don't know who had which name, but I'll let you guys have fun trying to figure THAT one out! BTW, great teaser... |

| I saw a show about this on "That's Incredible" (aging myself here) years ago. Some of the names that stick out were Jack Frost, Peter Rabbit and one gentleman who had the unfortunate last name of Claus, so of course his parents thought it wise to name him Santa. The worst one though was a boy whose last name is Daub - his father chose the first name Zippity and the middle name Doo or the child.
A couple years ago an ex and I got into a car accident and the officer who responded to the crash was named Jet Black. There is also a Real Estate Agent who is named Peter Pan.
I don't understand why parents are so cruel. Sure it is "cute" when they are kids, but how seriously can you take them as adults |
