I heard once, but cannot verify, that a football fan was so overjoyed when his team - either Brazil or Argentina, I think - won the World Cup that he decided to name his as yet unborn baby after the entire team; eleven names, therefore. But the child was a girl, so she got all eleven names plus the first name of Maria as a concession to femininity.
