    So, as it turns out, (I found this out much later) my cousin had actually texted with my address and put the name down as "Mr. Cúnt Face". Someone in the mail room/automatic letter forming room obviously wasn't doing their job because, as the BigBossLady said to me, the system should have flagged the vulgarity. I reckon someone in the mail room saw it but let it go through for the laugh:pac:

    That's gas! I actually worked in the post room of Ulster Bank in 2007! Do you know if it came from Georges Quay or Leopardstown? I definitely would have remembered something like that, I can tell you though that the letters came to the post room already in envelopes from "upstairs" and there was so many of them that we just counted and bagged them....no room for lookin' at the names, I regret it now though :p

    A short, skinny, chinese lad who worked in my local a few years back was called "Lo Fat".

    There was a fella giving a talk in QUB one day to a bunch of postgrads, his name was Dawson Stealthfox. Probably the coolest name ever.

    It is a cool story and these things happen.

    I worked with a lady named Sally Conquest in London who worked in Direct Marketing.She used to get letters addressed Dear Fanny ...... she never knew who put her details in business reply cards.

    Something similar happened a lady I know named Henrietta and like you she had the chuzpah to pull it off.

    That is indeed an awesome name. we have a family of travellers who have some utterly ridiculous names, Madonna O'Donnell is one , and Lourdes Chastity Ward is another.

    Theres a guy who rings in all the time who's first name is John, but he refers to himself as Frank. and it causes utter confusion on his account. "its what people know me as" is his excuse, wtf?! its not even close to your actual name! Frank instead of Francis, or Jack instead of John, that I'll buy, but Frank instead of John?! makes no sense.

    Then theres the transgender customer, although I'm not sure if he's a man becoming a woman or the other way around, as he/she has a really deep voice but a female name, so either they've had hormone treatment and not a name change yet, or the other way around.

    My brother lives 30 miles away & I used to every couple of days, post him a packet of Jelly Bellys in a small parcel, just too large for the letterbox so the postman would have to knock. These were addressed to the likes of:

    Liz Behan
    Stew Pedasol
    Yu Sok Kok
    Crispen Evenn
    Denis Elbow
    Emma Wroid
    Hugo Firsd
    Ben Dover
    Hugh Cumber
    Warwick Hunt
    Randy Neighbour
    Dick Head
    Harry Phanni
    Betty Swollocks
    & of course the obligitory Mike Hunt

    Had to stop as the postman thought they were being harassed & asked them one day it they'd like to get the guards involved :/

    There's quite a few unusual names floating around in the motor trade. I've no problem posting these names as they are widely known and available on the interweb.

    Michael Lyng Motors in Kilkenny, my contact was his son Neil as in 'Neil Lyng' (kneeling)!

    Dude in an Opel dealership that is now closed, his name was 'Lee Cooper'!

    Dude who runs the Fiat / Alfa Dealership by the Red Cow is called 'Prosper Kickham' - no sh1t!

    I used to work with an American (naturally) guy called "Dexter Phoenix".

    He was black, tall, very fit, shaved head, this amazing deep voiced accent & was genuinely an all round fantastic guy. Women used to go weak at the knees in his presence. He was gay & whenever he told them they'd be so upset. More than one asked him for the chance to make up his mind.

    The subsequent letters came from the main Ulster Bank office in College Green/right beside Trinity College. Not sure about the initial letter, but as I said when I get back to Dublin, or according to some here when I become an expert with Photoshop:rolleyes::pac:, I'll upload them.

    If somebody got a letter from a bank these days calling their customer a cnut they'd be looking for a lot more than a hamper!!!

    Interesting. Please elaborate, oh Dearest Snyper.

    Was reading Cosmopolitan once, and in the part where people write in for advice they had a gynaecologist giving advice on sexual health issues and her name was Rebecca McGee. Not 100% sure it was Rebecca but most definitely McGee..ridiculous.

    I think her first name was actually Havalukka. From Hawaii apparently.

    No, sold her on ebay to some lad in birmingham.

    DHL.

    Tip: 12 small parcels is cheaper than one big one

    One of our support team in India was called Anil Mistry.

    Dawson Stelfox, was the first Irishman to climb Everest, I believe. He runs some sort of motivational company or some such. Climbers tend to own such things.
