You should be able to ring your local pizza shop in Dublin or Manchester.

When then ask your name then they should understand what you say.

So, don't go for odd , ethnic names .... especially if you like pizza.

My name is niall

I have to say it 4/5 times when using it to book anything. I actually have my name as dave in the local chipper

My name is fairly common but I also have a name I give when ordering things (I believe it is called your Starbucks Name). Mine is Belinda - they always seem to understand that one for some reason

I was playing a game in work. Well, game is not the right word, but a few of us were coming up with names that were also verbs.
Eg. Rob, Jack, Mitch, Marshal, Carol etc. I think we ended up getting about 50 or so.

Rufus is cool if you have the cojones to pull it off.

Right, so basically all of the names.

Personally always felt sorry for anyone called Alastair, Stanley, Cian, Cillian, Nuala or Mairead.

Jack has also got to be the most cliched name out there.

Ah now, surely there's a difference between names that are weird in 2013 and names that you just don't like? Those aren't exactly out of place today imo.
