    I admit I giggled. I didn't want to, it's just I couldn't help it. I genuinely did not know they actually existed:)


    Anyone you happen to know or have met with a name you could just not resist? The type of name where the poor person may have grounds to take their parents to court for childhood cruelty?

    My friend had a French exchange student stay with her when we were kids. Her name was Fanny. That kept us laughing for an entire summer.

    According to Google, Ben Dover is a porn actor and director, so how did you, eh, manage to come across the guy?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    A friend is married to a French girl called Fanny.
    Another friend is married to a German guy called Michael Koch, everyone knows him as Mickey, he's lived in Ireland for years. I was there when Fanny and Mickey Koch were introduced. 'Teas funny.

    But the best bit is that Mickey's dad was over here visiting years ago. His name? Gehart.

    One time in work I served a lad called Les Behan. He saw me do a double take of his card and he said 'Yeah, that's my name for my sins'. A good sport in fairness.

    Gethin Dick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,490 ✭✭✭amtc


    I went to college with a guy called Enda Head and his father was Richard.

    My aunt is called Trish and she fell for a guy called Mark Fish. She called it off when she realised she'd be Trish Fish. This wasn't the only reason but was a contributing factor!

    Dick Puller

    100% genuine. (He's actually Richard, but everyone calls him Dick)

    On a similar note, I worked with a Paul Mycock a few years ago. I still remember that first time I asked him for his email address, and he spelt out his surname. I was dying inside trying not to laugh.

    We nicknamed him Tug for convenience.

    My surname is McGee, when my son was born my wife wanted to call him Pierce. Permission denied!
    I was in college with a girl called Gettin Dich.
