Not even! (I still had to endure many of those jokes.) When I was 12 I
went to school with a pair of fraternal twins named Jack & Jill. I
can't imagine what that must have been like. Parents sometimes think
they're being cute when all they're really doing is setting up their
kids to be the butt of a joke.

I recently read a book where the main character was named Mae-June, her
middle name was July. I gather people actually do things like that to
their children.
