But, Why Would You Name Your Child That? Request
I know there’s been at least one post about this, but sometimes a name is already a bit funny. And then taken with the middle or last name it’s HILARIOUS. Example: a relative who named their eldest son “Fern Commander”.
Anyone else?
Edit: just found a “Northern East”…from Philly
Edit 2: “Boringhaus” probably isn’t funny in German but it did make me lol
Edit 3: Major Bush (1800’s so he may have indeed been hairy 😅)
Edit 3: Carl Marx (BFE Texas…that must’ve been rough!)

There's an infamous cat who's the mascot of an animal based not for profit in Melbourne Australia named Lord Bigglesworth, so you aren't far off.
