What's in a name?

One of my friends is pregnant and we were thinking of names to give to the baby. We came up with normal names like Samantha, Jacqueline, Evelyn, etc. But then I thought, what if they decide to give the baby a weird name? I know someone by the name of Volks Wagan. Now is that cute or just cruel? Of course, we've heard some weird celebrity baby names as well.

Here are some of them:
