There was a Detroit Lion named Harry Colon.
I also knew of a Fanny Bender.
Working with kids, I see a lot of crazy names:
London England
Iceeheaven (first name)
Ginger Rayle
Calvin Hobbes
and...a mother named her daughter Bitche (pronounced Bee-Shay)
There are tons of stories that go around the medical community regularly, almost all of which I'm sure are urban legends (though the tellers all insist these are true). Generally, they are first female names: Labia, Clitoris, Placenta, and Hymen. There is also Nosmo King (mom supposedly saw a No Smoking sign), and twins Orangello and Lemongello - accent on the second syllable (mom, of course, was fed orange and lemon jello after birthing the nippers).
Oh yeah, another girl's name: Chlamydia (which is actually quite a pretty name).
I can't tell you how many times I've heard these over the years at different institutions, and they all happened wherever the story was being told from.
