I have had students or known kids named Princess, King, and Legend. Charleigh Brown. Atilla Hunt. Harley Quinn. Their name just becomes the collection of phonemes you use to address them. It’s funny when you see it, then you don’t even think about it anymore.

Mercedes was a name before being a car brand.
Mercedes is a Spanish female name, derived from María de las Mercedes (“Our Lady of Mercy” or “Mary of Mercies”), which is one of the Roman Catholic titles of the Virgin Mary.

Emil Jellinek was an Austrian-Jewish diplomat based in Nice who ran a profitable business selling cars, and, as a racing enthusiast, had been racing DMG automobiles under the pseudonym Mercédès, after his daughter, Mercédès Jellinek.[2] Later he contracted with DMG for a small series of dedicated sports cars containing an engine that officially bore his daughter’s name.

And Isis was also a name before the terrorist organization. Sadly lexicons change over time.

I actually really like names like summer, autumn, river, rain. Idk why because I feel like they should be bad names.
