Unusual name departure procedure
This morning I was transitioning through Palm Beach, FL (KPBI) and heard the controller instruct someone to follow the "Ivanka Departure"
Did I hear that right, Ivanka Trump has a departure procedure named after her? I looked all over, and can't find a SID anywhere in the KPBI service area. But I did find and airport in eastern europe with that name.
Maybe I'm just crazy.

It goes from UFIRED to DONLD to TRUMP to IVNKA. Right over his house! The BUFIT departure goes south passed JIMEY.
Really, the ATC guys do a lot of this. There used to be a NOLAN RYYAN EXPRS coming into DFW

Boston has BRUWN ONE, CELTK ONE, PATSS ONE, and SSOXS ONE . . . all RNAV DPs named after the best four sports teams on the planet. And, of course, what would Boston be without a LBSTA ONE departure?!

I know KDEN has an approach fix called YONDR - and I'm told some pilots are told to "report over YONDR".
Here in San Diego we have SHAMU approach to KSAN
BTW - I had my handheld radio on earlier this afternoon - I distinctly heard So Cal approach tell an aircraft to contact "Limburger Tower".
Nothing wrong with a sense of humor.

Not as good as the WLDKT1. Albeit, a college team.
Where is the approach with ITAWT ISAWW APUDDY KATTT with the MAP being IDIDD?
