Wow. Did I ever tell you that one of the social workers I worked only ever said anything to a mom who was naming her baby-it was going to be pronounced VA-gee-NA... yea, she was just going to put down 'Vagina' as the name.
It is an odd name for a modern baby, but at least Thisbe is an actual name. Maybe her parents were experts in Greek classical literature or just really like Ovid or Shakespeare. Not nearly as bad the legendary "Marco," pronounced "demarco," because "The D is invisible."

When Sarah had Jimmy at Missouri Baptist Hospital the names of the babies were posted on the room doors. No kidding, one name was
Thisbe!
Seriously!

Wow! That beats Brytni (Brittany) as the worst spelling ever.
