oh, what's in a name?

here i sit at work... just looking at random things online and i came across the most hilariously sad article ever. a name is something you have to live with for the rest of your life, or until the age of 18 when you can legally change it, so why name your child something that they're going to hate you for?
my brother-in-law likes to make fun of some names that my sisters and i think are pretty adorable i.e.: Parker...over by that Kirbie... or Justin...time... the list goes on. but as much as he makes fun of those names, THESE are by far the worst...

"Bart Simpson's prank calls to Moe's Tavern are nearly legendary, but the sad fact is that some people actually go through life with those goofy names. The following Bart creations all exist within the Ancestry.com databases:

Al Caholic
Oliver Clothesoff
I.P. Freely
Seymour Butz
Mike Rotch
Hugh Jass
Amanda Hugginkiss
Ivana Tinkle
Anita Bath
Maya Buttreeks"

why? why would you do that? do you WANT your kids to hate you?
there are more sad names in that article of people named after diseases, professions, sins, Irish luck, foods, and then what some celebrities have named their children...
