I was just told a story about a woman in jail who was pregnant. After she gave birth, she went over to see her kid, and said "Oh, Fuh-mahl-ee (this is how it was pronounced), what a beautiful name. I'm definitely going to name her Fuh-mahl-ee."
The tag on the cradle read "female," and was just telling the nurses what gender the infant was. There is now some poor kid out there named Female.
