Best real name ever?

When I worked on the Microsoft helpdesk I took a call from someone from India who's last name was Diksh*t

This is a fairly common last name in India and infact one of there dotcom billionaires is Anurag Diksh*t,

Also whilst at the same helpdesk, apart from the numerous Americans with the first name Gaylord there was a woman called Fanny Garden, I kid you not.

There used to be a pub in Ennis called M.T. Pockets (might still be there), I wonder if Mr Pockets is still around today?

I don't know anyone with these names but I know people with them last names so I guess its possible.

Had a teacher who occasionally referred to us as Master then our surnames. You can imagine the hysterics when he called for Michael Bates..

Also had dealings with a Wayne Kerr, he lived up to his name..

Has anyone ever seen the stand up comedian Michael Mee? He goes through a whole list of names that his parents could've given him but thankfully they didn't - frickin hilarious!
