People with silly and / or stupid names

I was at work interviewing today...

The subject of drug testing came up...

I found myself having to repeat the name of the head of WADA...
(and then I got the giggles like a schoolboy... )

The lady I was with thought I was totally taking the piss...

Of course we all know it is that well known, Montreal lawyer Dick Pound

Made me wonder if there were any other gems I might have missed ?

Best of all time is surely Tokyo Sexwale

Ramjam Funkyboogalo-Smyth

I have met him a few times

what name do you call him by DJ ? Smiffy ?

I just googled him, and discovered his middle name is Delilah!

Generally he is called Ramjam.

I once had to phone Mr Derek Skews. Got through to the receptionist and said "can I speak to Mr Skews please", then I had to hang up due to fits of laughter.

I did a delivery once to a lady named Mrs Takenoshita. No joke or lie man.

...also, my mate once went out with the daughter of one of the Balls Brothers wine merchants. Her name was Rosie.

Once, stoned, long time ago, looked through the Southampton phonebook for laughs and instantly discovered A.Squirrel who we then prank called for a long time. Probably too long.

Used to kill many a quiet moment, hour, day looking through the customer database at Hellfrauds. There was a Mrs Hailstones. Lots of Wangs which always brought a giggle.

More recently though and this is possibly just a Scottish thing, but I get really annoyed by people who give their kids stupidly Scottish names.

There's those that just go for an actual name like Flaithbheartach or Oisian, that's bad enough but then there's those that name there kids after places. There's the obvious ones like Skye, Lewis, Harris etc but I heard of a kid called Millport recently. For those that don't know, Millport is a pretty tacky holiday destination island, it has one road but about 20 million caravans and at least 30 ice cream shops. Also sure I know someone that;s named their child Mull. Mull. Could you get a duller name?

The freaks round the corner from me have named one of their children Pebbles, I asked about bambam but was met with blank expressions.

We have a customer at work called Mr Mycock, he is a teacher.

Deed Poll >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

My favourites from work recently are Snow White (a girl from China) and a Swedish applicant called Fanny Goterfelt (say it out loud) hehehe!

Saoirse Brown, Arthur Beer, Christopher Peacock. all 100% legit.

used to work with a guy called Richard Mycock, commonly called Dick.
