There was a very nice lady in our town named Persis Pooley – I have always loved her name.
I went to school with Rivers Hatchett and Chapel Temple.
And, of course, there is someone in our town named Mary Christmas and someone named Candy Barr.
I grew up knowing the Gunn family – Pop, Bebe, Squirt and Tommy.
I had an ancestor named Nebelow Woleben (his first name is his last name backwards).
If you want to go historical, Governor Hogg of Texas named his daughter Ima (she was an only child; he did not give her a sister named Ura). Ima Hogg never married but became a collector of antiques and art, and was a philanthropist.
