True story: when I was a teen, one family in our ward, the Gerrs, had a daughter whom they decided to name Amber. They didn’t realize what that sounded like together until he was blessing her.
“The name by which you will be known on the records of the Church is Amber Gerr.” There was a pause, some chuckles from the congregation, and then the husband, his voice slightly quavering, went on.
(If you don’t get it, say her full name quickly.)
