What's the oddest name you've found?

[Treetotal]

Spark Edward Adams - I was convinced it was a nickname that was put on the census for him, but no, he's listed on every census from 1871 to 1911 as Spark, and birth and death registrations are for Spark as well.

I haven't found a baptism yet, maybe the parents (who are a very ordinary George and Mary) just didn't dare....

There's a sister too - a slightly exotic Lucilla.

.

I have a Lucilla and You are the only person that I have come across who has someone with this name in her family.
Carol

Not a relative ... but an ancestor's servant (probably employee in his forge)

Good evening,

I have a few on one line, Rose, used several times down the line. On the male side of the Fullers.

French Fuller and Ashburnham Fuller also appear.

I also came across these albeit not on my tree;
Leo Quintus Tollemache Tollemache de Orellana Plantagenet Tollemache Tollemache,
and his younger brother;
Leone Sextus Denys Oswolf Tollemach Tollemache ....................

They are 5 and 6 in the family and the others all have equally strange names.

John915

5th and 6th boys that is, the girls were not in the numbering system.

One of my ancestors had the first name "Sweatman".

Of course it turned out to be his mother's maiden name so it wasn't completely random, just seems to be an odd choice.

It became a family name and was used for at least two generations afterwards!

I think this may be in the Guinness Record Books or something as I've come across this one before......
