I met a woman today named "Creola". I'm betting that you'll only find that in Louisiana. (She was nice, by the way. I'm not making fun of her, I just found it interesting.)
I also met an Orangejello, (pronounced O'Rongelo). No, just kidding. I'm pretty sure that's an urban myth. BUT, my mom, who works in a labor and delivery ward, told me that a patient overheard the doctor say a word that she thought was pretty, so she named her child that.
It was Placenta.
No joke.

I've also heard of girls named Female (pronounced like Tamale) b/c the mom's saw "Female Smith" on the crib thing. Dorks, I say.
