actual names of people in Zambia...
In Zambia, people, especially in the rural areas, will name their kids based on the objects or circumstances surrounding their birth. To say the least, this can lead to some bizarre names. Here are a few of my favorite:
- Hatred
- Shoe
- Neveragain
- Jealousy
- Tire
- Sock
- Hat
- Trouble
- Petrol
- Anger
- Advice
- Diesel
- Funny
- Madeinusa (= Made In the U.S.A.)...this is not a joke people!
I suspect that years of therapy will be needed for some of these people.

Wow. Are these originally in English, or something else?
Wow! I have already passed this list on to a bunch of people. These are just insane! Poor Hatred... I think that's the worst one!
