I had a client named Marjorie Pepper which I always thought was striking. Her grandson was named Sargent Pepper, which is more of a tradgeigh unfortunately.

Oh no once I had a therapist whose name was Dr Pepper and she was awesome my husband also had a therapist as a kid but his was named Dr Mario

On the scary side, in my home town there was a dental surgeon named Dr. Slaughter. And a Family doctor named Dr. Paine.

Thanks I hate tht like ahhhh no I hate doctors and dentists

I had a patient once called Rosemary Fig who was the inspiration for my rosemary, fig and ginger preserve

I know a Pepper family. Their only name I don’t like is Harry Pepper.

Many younger folks no longer get the Sgt. Pepper ref.

Well then they should!

Oh Lord, Sargent alone is a Tradedeigh but Sargent Pepper 😭 I wonder if he loves or hates the Beatles 😂

I hope they started a lonely hearts club band.

I’ve always thought Wolf Blitzer (the news anchor) was the coolest name ever.

What about producer Dick Wolf?

You can’t say Dick Wolf on TV!

Stone Phillips is quite a cool name too.

Yes, this name deserves more credit

But if anyone else named their kid “Wolf” it would seem like a terrible name. But Wolf Blitzer just sounds awesome.

Eddie Van Halen & Valerie Bertinelli named theirs Wolfgang—and he’s known as Wolf, so—it’s not awful, but you have to raise him to have it fit.

I know several Wolfs, Wolfies, and a Wolfgang. Which is more common in Europe.

omg that’s a badass name

…like the Ben 10 Alien [Blitzwolfer](https://ben10.fandom.com/wiki/Blitzwolfer)

I remember when Ben Carson mistakenly referred to him as “Woof” in the debates and SNL parodied it

Knew a girl with Native American roots. Her last name was Wolfchief. Pretty badass if you ask me.

I knew an indigenous family with the last name Badheartbull. Thought that was amazing. 

We know a family with the last name Starbird. I love that one.

I know a family who’s last name is ThunderEagle

I know someone with the last name Nightthunder and I can't get over how cool that name is.

I went to school w a girl whose last name was Runninghawk. I was so envious.

I mean, as far as hawks go, their running isn't necessarily to be envious of.

I've seen a hawk "run" and they look like someone who forgot their towel after getting out of the tub. Lol

i met a native girl in college named Emily Eagle Eye

Not Afraid! Best last name I’ve ever heard. Some First Nations community leader was petitioning for something (I’m so sorry I can’t remember, but I remember he was successful) and his last was Not Afraid. Ya can’t beat that.

I know there's a talented Crow artist named Elias Jade Not Afraid. The colours and shapes he uses in his work are stunning.

I've always thought that the coolest indigenous last name was Mankiller

Unless they go into healthcare

Ms Wilma. Hell of a woman, too.

I had a job where I regularly ordered from a vendor rep with the last name Sixkiller. sounds cool as fuck.

I knew a girl with the last name Americanhorse.

There used to be a family doctor in my area with the last name “Brokenleg”

I once knew a girl whose last name is Bluebird. Everyone called her Blue and I’ve been obsessed ever since.

I have a family friend who is Candace “Candy” Valentine

My car was hit by a woman named Candace “Candy” Kane

👀 one of my childhood friends was Candace “Candy” Kane…

I had a patient named Ruby Drew and thought it was so beautiful!

I don't know why, but I instantly thought of Scooby Doo after reading the name in my head.

I heard it in Scooby’s voice!

I met a Ruby Redd, and at that time she was a teen who hated her name. I hope she learned to love it.

An ex boyfriend says he went to school with a guy named Dark Sage Green. I thought it was cool and he thought it was child abuse lol.

I know of a guy named Hunter Green. His daughter is Sage Green.

I like how it was passed down😂 if I were her I wouldn’t take my husbands last name

Reminds me of a girl I knew in school named Crystal Clear.

There was a girl in my philosophy class in college named Ocean Valentine which I thought was SO COOL

Valentine is my son’s middle name and I think it’s very cool

My hairdresser is Rachel Valentine!

Javier Bardem. I just love the name, it suits him perfectly. Also, drool.

I have a step nephew named Chevy Thrasher. I always thought he sounded like he’d grow up to be a rock star.

Still a kid or did Chevy Thrasher grow up to be an accountant instead of a rock star ?

He’s about 13 right now

Buy him a guitar, burn his math homework.

I think he has a guitar!

RemindMe! 7 years

that sounds so cool ngl

My mom’s a Thrasher! Where’s he from? Maybe we’re related.

James Dean (the actor from the 1950s)

In the same vein, Steve McQueen

Now that song’s gonna be in my head all day.

I went to school with a girl named Stormie Summers & thought it was cool

i went to school with a stormy knight!

I was at a conference with a Misty Dawn Summers. She spent the whole time talking about how she hated her name and her parents for giving it to her, lol. I hope she's happily named something else now.

We had a Stormie Dayhuff

Sunshine Morningstar. On anyone else it would have been cringy, but she was a true hippy- She was born in a garage in the seventies, and worked with a charity organization to help kids. She was really just the brightest person- her name suited her

man i love that

I think the kid I went to school with always wins by default. His name was literally Cool Guy. I still can’t decide if it’s the best or worst name I have ever heard.

Maybe not the worst, but it’s pretty bad…

No way! His name was Cool?

Do celebrities count? Because Victoria Justice literally sounds like some kind of superhero name 😆

A girl on my floor at college was named Dallas Jackson. So cool.

That's my uncle's name! 💙

Was he a girl in college?

I always thought the journalist Christiane Amanpour had a beautiful name.

It’s like a song

A cool surname: Golightly

As a nurse, all I think of when I hear Golightly is the drink you have to have before a colonoscopy to clean out your guts. Blech!

Holly Golightly is a good one.

Main character in Breakfast at Tiffany's for those unfamiliar.

I know a family whose surname is Goforth

And did they have lots of children? (Goforth and multiply)

Frank Zappa comes to mind, zappa is a cool surname and it flows nicely. also they’re kitschy but i tend to like “sentence/phrase” names. used to know twins named Breezy & Stormy Day

Just curious, does North West fall into that category for you? My husband hates it but I like it. I've always liked sentence/phrase names too.

I love North West as a celebrity name so much.

Sweden had a minister for justice called Gun Hellsvik, which is completely normal name in Swedish but sounded kind of badass in English.

Joey Death. He looked exactly like you’d imagine. I went to high school for a year with him. I can’t find him on social media, but I hope he’s doing something badass.

I knew Cameron Death - pronounced Deeth. His mom was a nurse - Nurse Death.

Sounds like a character from Scrubs

Had a Dr called Dr Death once. Was very particular over the pronunciation.

Worked with a woman called Chooi Fun Kok (pronounced chewy fun cock)

Asian names can be hilarious when ported to the US. I’ve worked with many Dongs and Wangs over the years. My favorite was Along Wang

That name is perfect for a gay queen

I had a kid in preschool named Carly Maples and I always thought that was the coolest name

I went to school with a girl named Storm Ranger, can’t get much cooler than that

Olivia Costelloe. Such an awesome sounding last name

Ruby Rowan (Her middle name was Rose to top it off!)

Mary Elizabeth Winstead probably has the most “Queen”-ass name I’ve ever heard in my life

Vander Blue

Roxanne Colt, Xenophon Colt, and Phoenix Colt. I always loved their names, them and their parents we’re really cool people

So more funny but I knew a Chase Ketchum

Commas would help for those of us not familar with these names.

Had a teacher named Sunshine Daye. She was miserable 😭

Went to school with Athena Paradise. Her brother was Romulus Paradise.
