Embarrassing Surnames

I have a Native surname. It's a common enough surname in the tribal community, so whenever I meet someone familiar with it, I am asked if I am related to this person or that person. Otherwise, I was teased for my surname growing up. I used to cringe when teachers called out my name because my first name was unusual to most Americans and then my surname seemed so funny.

Truthfully, I'm always fascinated by people who are named John Johnson or Charlie Charles.

Ed Balls.

Fanny Bollerts pronounced Fanny Boll*cks

Vagina

Seamen must be one, I once knew a Richard who had that surname..

Remember reading obituaries in the paper and saw a Mrs Sex also my granny had a friend and her surname was Woolhead

guy used to play GAA football for Kildare called Bill Sex, used to wonder if he had a daughter Orla!

at work, sometimes I answered the phone to a customer, surname Dick.

On a visit to Germany a few years ago, I was in stitches when I saw the letters D I C K on a tall old red-bricked tower
