95% of celebrities name their kids with embarrasing names!

There use to be a very wealthy man in Texas whose last name was Pigg. He named his two daughters, Ima and Ura. True story.

Here are some true names of people I have known of.

Young unwed mother in our area named her newborn some Levi Stud Service (last name Service)

Had a friend in high school named Betty Burpo.

Had a set of sisters in high school, last name was Christmas, there was Mary Christmas, Joy Christmas and Happy Christmas.

Knew a lady whose next door neighbors had the last name of Dick. They named their son Harry.

These are all for real, scary stuff people will do to their kids!

I forgot another family that my father knew. The last name was Mintz. He named his daughters Candy and Pepper. Really.

No, it's Hogg, and there was only one daughter...really named Ima.

Her father, "Big Jim" Hogg was a Governor of Texas.
From Ima Hogg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Contrary to popular belief, Ima did not have a sister named "Ura".
