Oh and there was a guy who went to St. Mary's school when I was younger called Ivor Ash, never met him but it's been confirmed by numerous, different people who know him.

I have met him several times.

His sister is called Olga.

When I once told a girl my name she laughed very loudly and told me my parents were cruel. Thing is, my name isn't that unusual at all.

According to your "about me" your name is Aul Clock! That's unusual!!!:p

When doing IT phone support I used to get this woman who would give her name of 'Tina Fuchs' and then giggle. This would always brighten up an otherwise insufferably boring day. I'd then be trying to get the conversation going in a dirty direction while still trying to stay professional, but I never managed it as there wasn't a lot I could do with "Can I have your computername" etc.:(

So what's the most hilarious real life name you've come across? Provide linkage if you can.

Darn it, I was going to say 'he'll need it', but the place isn't half bad as African countries go!

A girl in my college was called Gethin Dick. Pronounce her first name with a Dublin accent. I wonder if she was...

I remember from the book 'Freakonomics' that some guy in America called his two sons 'Winner' and 'Loser' Lane. Apparently the first son, Winner, was given this name as the father thought it would help him get ahead in life. It didn't. God knows what he was thinking with that, but to call your next son Loser....*facepalm*.

I think Loser came on to become a police superintendant or something similar, he led a more successful life than Winner anyway...and everyone just called him Lou.

Glico Man · 20-01-2010 03:36PM

I knew a Robert Apple, he goes by Bob now...Bob Apple

At work, I have a list of contacts for a local licensing authority, and one of the names on it is Rick Shaw.

There's also Neville Neville, father of Gary and Phil Neville.

I went to college with a girl called Jennifer Wonderlich (pronounced wonderlick). Always found that kind of amusing, moreso because she's a lesbian!

brummytom · 20-01-2010 06:45PM

I don't know any funny ones;

Went to school with a girl called Vogue Wadrup. What kind of fucked up name is that?

And our local vets is called the "Richard Hillman Vetinary Clinic".
If anyone watches Corrie, you'll know Richard Hillman was the name of a serial killer

There was a guy called "Kamil Fucher" who once worked for the same company as me. The first name is pronounced 'Camel' and the 'ch' in the last name can sound like a 'k' in some pronunciations.
