There is a Mercedes dealership in the next city, which often advertises on the radio about the joys of a luxury automobile with much soothing music, surf, and cries of seagulls in the background. The name of the dealership is Jim Slemons.

After high school, I worked in a regional occupational program for a elderly veterinarian. My friend's mother told me once he had been arrested in the '60's for performing illegal abortions (well, at least he was a doctor). His name was Dr. Butcher.

Shortly after our first son was born, and John was still working at Food 4 Less, one of his co-workers asked after the baby. When John told her his name was MacKenzie Angus, she wrinkled her nose, gave him a funny look, and said, "You sure give your kids weird names!" Her name was Latrina.

When traveling in Queensland, Australia, I saw two hair salons. One was named The Tropical Follicle, and the other was Curl Up and Dye.

We've run across some doozies. Some we couldn't believe they let register, but I guess we're more lenient than the DMV.
