Um, baby names?

Gwyneth Paltrow just named her newborn son "Moses." While that isn't extrememly strange, it's certainly uncommon. Of course, she named her daughter "Apple."

Anybody have thoughts on obscure or strange names? Yes, they provide a sense of individuality, but I fear it would be awfully upsetting to go to Disney World, and not be able to buy a coffee cup with my name on it.
