Say what? v1

I think you all know by now that I work in recruiting. With that said, you can imagine how many names and applications I see on a daily basis. A lot. Not only do I see those, but I also see drug screens and background investigations, so I see a lot into these candidate's lives. This week I started putting together a list, that came together pretty quickly, of weirdo names and places that I come across. They always seem to make me laugh and also try to imagine the conversation that went on between the parents of these children. I understand having unique names and I am a fan of that, but c'mon, we're getting a little out of control.

I thought I would share them with you all and I'm guessing this will become a frequent post where I share the strange things I see. I'm sure after I post this I will get a comment saying, "hey that's my brothers name!" or "in some places that name means beautiful man who is loved by all".

Names:
Alfredo (As in, chicken alfredo?)
Barnabas (umm, okay)
Dung (I could never envision naming my child something where the nickname "shit" could so easily be given)
Hoss (Again, nicknames like pig, heifer, fat etc. are all nicknames I would avoid)
Krysha (I'm not even sure what this name is. Pronounced maybe cry-sha or kree-shaw?)
Turquiose (I don't agree with naming children after colors, months, seasons, or food. Sorry.)

Names of High Schools:
Flathead High School
Spooner High School

Also, another funny thing from today... Someone filled out their application wrong and so when it was put in our recruiting system to review, the company they work for replaced his name. So unless you dig a little deeper, it lists him as First Name: Volt Last Name: Services. I'm sure the manager received the application from Mr. Services and immediately disqualified him.
