I once heard a woman scolding her two boys in the grocery store. She called one "Malcolm X" and the other "Blake Carrington" (yes, the Blake Carrington from the 80s show Dynasty).

I have often said that the mothers must have had horrible labor giving birth to children when I hear of names like this (or the one you mentioned).
