Parents have quite a sense of humor sometimes, but it shouldn’t be on display as their kid’s name.

At least Johnny Cash’s “Boy Named Sue” got the name to help him grow up tough with an absent father. Can the same be said for Whet Faartz or Willie Stroker?

Those are pretty iffy, and they may not even be the worst of the bunch! Some names we found are just funny, but others make you shake your head and wonder what in the world people were thinking…
