My latest discoveries - girls' names Hairys and Sumergida - seem mild by comparison.
I know a Sum?rgida, too.

dominican names, part 539

As funny and unique as some DR names are I was watching the local news in Canada today and they interviewed a guy named Charles Weasel Head. Honest I cant make this sh!t up. He even looked kinda weaselly.
First nation (Indian) Canadians have some of the most original names you can think of
Joe Running Bear
Sally Yellow House
Johnnie Walking Down the Highway
Traditionally they are named after the first thing the mother sees or does. Two Dogs Screwing lives just outside Winnipeg. OK I made that one up.

My sister-in-law is a blood Indian from Alberta and her last name is Crow spreads his wings, and her mothers' family's last name is calf-robe.
I actually like some Dominican names- one of the girls at the school is Yoeldi Matika , and her sister is Rossy Marcheli
OMG. They named her Crow Spreads HIS Wings. I hope the feminist cops don't see this.
Hah, like they would make a fuss with native traditions. Lots of Dominican kids have English names that are pronounced the same as the English pronunciation but spelt in Spanish. Yenifer. Yaimili (Jamielee)
.......etc.
I like Mexican northern music. A recent favorite song is "la foray fay". I couldn't figure it out. Even after the video it still didn't make sense. It refers to a 45. As in colt 45 pistol. Foray Fay = 45. Makes perfect sense now.
In Colombia they don't say feyboo, the say face.
Btw, does anyone think Maikol is spelled incorrectly? I don't.

I think the idea is that jh is pronounced like "dj" as in the English name John. The H has something to do with the sound of the J.
They know there is an h in there, and of course, the h in john is silent in English.
The closest way to spell "John" in Spanish would be LLON or YON, and that looks weird.

English spelling is also pretty messed up. Compared to Spanish, it is illogical. In Italian, it's Gianni.
Haitian names seem backwards to Americans: Robinson Pierre, Williamson Charles, Smith John.
