Yes, but perhaps it is not such a bad idea!  I have heard of three unfortunate sisters in Brazil whose parents called them Photocopy, Authenticate, and Xerox!  Or the family who lived near us and had called one son "Gazza" - which is usually a nickname for Gary.  Also, my Lady knew a boy whose mother (who couldn't spell and obviously wasn't taught a few basic rule of English) called him Jammie (one wonders if she gave birth in a bath of rasberry jam?).
