6. Tennessee Judd.
Yep. It's true. I know an 8 year old with that name.

Actually it's not THAT bad, and once he's older it might even be kinda cool, but for now it's not.

21. Well, there's Georgia Engel and a whole bunch of other Georgias...
As well as Virginia Graham and all the other Virginias, including the little girl who was iffy on Santa. How about Dakota Fanning (N or S)? There are probably a number of Carolinas, too. Then there's Nathan Arizona and his wife and quintuplets, if fictional examples count.

That's not to mention Al Aska, Mrs Sippi, Miss Ouri, and Ken Tucky.
