よく昔から「十月十日生まれ」の人は「元旦！元旦！！」といってバカにされていましたが、違うんですよね〜・・・。
djr: とつきとおか　&#8212;とをか 【十月十日】 一〇か月と一〇日。胎児が母の胎内にいる期間。

Comments:

In my experience the first meaning is more common in colloquial usage. Obviously kokugo dictionaries won't list it, because it's commonly used to tease people who happened to be born on the 10th and because "everybody gets it".
