First, let me say there’s nothing wrong with having a typical name. Names like John, Chris, Emily, and Kate are utilitarian and get the job done.

But every once in a while you meet someone whose parents were not about that noise and WENT FOR IT.
For example, you might know someone who named their baby after a surprising character in a book, film, or TV show.

Or maybe a friend/acquaintance/living legend told you they named their baby "Cheese," which apparently a handful of people do every year.

It's also possible you know someone who got real creative with their name choice and sort of just made it up.
