Zain Verjee (female)
Csaba Csere (male)
Barack Obama
Besa Tafilaj
Tempestt Bledsoe
Dick Butkis
Tahmoh Penikett
Dick Schnot (my favourite!)
And btw how come Americans have so much difficulty saying and spelling a simple one syllable name like Jubb and seemingly no problem with Polish, Serbo-Croat, German names?

Re: Wonderful names
Twin boys at my daughter's school were called Limonjello and Oranjello.
Also, one of the teenage girls at that school had a baby (she was 14 at the time) and decided to call her daughter Placenta as she thought that it was a very pretty name
