When I read "bort" I laughed out loud. I don't know what nationality it comes from but it is flat out hilarious! Sounds like a Swedish superhero: Bort Squarejaw!

Jennifer should be banned for a generation. There are roughly 20 billion Jennifers in the U.S. now, since unimaginative parents named every 3rd girl that for about 8 straight years.

If I were going to change my name I would become Francois LeReaux or give myself one of those cool male Russian names, like Sergei or Vladimir.

Brother.

Yes, I know of a person whose first name is actually Brother.

I worked with a guy once whose first name was actually "Junior". Apparently his parents were a little unclear on the concept.

Edit: Candidate for most unfortunate name ever: a great guy who now goes by Sam Lu. He was a friend of my sister who moved to Canada from Vietnam as a refugee when he was a kid in the early seventies. When he was being processed by Immigration Canada, he told them his actual name and the officer advised him to change it to Sam. What was that original name you ask?
