    This thread was interesting until people just started repeating names they heard on the Simpsons...

    Any Irish person who has their surname in English should be embarrassed.

    Would have been better if you posted it in Irish.

    Most of the "embarrassing" surnames here are only funny sounding foreign names like a Japanese man I once met called Fukamoto but I've also knew someone called Allcock,
    his nickname was Noble (no balls).

    There's a guy over in an overseas subsidiary that I used to be in contact with called "Jurgen De Coq".

    Just an unfortunate name all around really!

    Bonner and Bonnar are very common surnames where Im from.


    The famous Packie (Bonner) and Declan (Bonnar) of course and i believe Declan is related to the 3 Bonnars from Tipperary who won All Irelands with the county in 89 and 91. :)

    I remember the night Munich were playing in the CL Final this year and a lad I know who puts up the most ridiculous statuses you could imagine on FB put up;

    'Schweinsteiger sounds like a cheap can of cider you'd give to your cat'.

    Don't ask why but I thought it was hilarious :D

    Speaking of German footballers, Schweinsteiger actually means "pig-mounter" :D


    I always laugh at around 2.55 on of this Apres Match clip with Ronnie Whelan

    Had dealings recently with a Lance Sheidt, hard to stop giggling when on the phone to him.

    Fella goes in my local, name of Shay Cox. Everyone calls him "Six Mickeys".
