From ABC News Online (Australia):
Biblical to bizarre: American baby names run the gamut

JaMarcus? WTF?

REGISTRAR'S OFFICE
Registrar: "What is the baby's name?"
Mother: "James"
Registrar: <clickety> <clickety> ...
Father: "No, we agreed on Marcus"
Mother: "Yes, Marcus"
Registrar: <backspace> <backspace> <clickety> <clickety> <clickety> <clickety> <clickety> <clickety>

TWO WEEKS LATER
Mother: "What the hell? Damn computer has called our son JaMarcus!"

MEANWHILE, AT THE REGISTRAR'S OFFICE:
IT Guy: "Here's your new keyboard"
Registrar: "Thanks. I've been having trouble with the backspace key for weeks."
