    I worked with a field tech at an ISP with the name Michael (Don't ever call him Mike) Hunt. I had to mute the phone and laugh like a 12 year old.

    There is a family that lives here named, "Hathcock"

    So, when I say "Jane Hathcock", it sounds like I am speaking old English and sounds like Jane is gettin' her some... Or maybe it's just because my mind is in the gutter :ohwell:

    My mom told me here middle school gym teacher was named Harold Balls... of course, he went by the name Harry. Having the last name Balls & being called Mr. Balls seems bad enough but add the first name Harry, talk about a double whammy! :laugh:

    D!ck Dix.

    When I was in high school, I was a shift manager a restaurant. The scheduling manager and I had a good laugh at the application from him, which had been turned in on night shift, and then we just tossed it since we got weird ones like that as jokes sometimes. A little while later, he called to follow up about the application.

    Oops.
    Whoops indeed! Did you give the poor guy an interview at least? lawl
    Are you kidding? He hired him. He went by "DDs" the whole time he worked there, too. :laugh:

    Seeing these names keep reminding me of more I have seen/heard/known. There was once an applicant for an accountant job named Ching Chang Chong. I don't know if anyone dared to make fun of such a name out of fear of being called racist. If you aren't sure why they would be called that, think of what used to be passed off as people "speaking" Chinese when making fun of the language.

    Other names that I remember now included Prince and Princess as the first names.

    I saw a plaque on the beach when I was a teenager, had to take a picture because it was dedicated to "Harry Boner" ...I'm sure it was pronounced Bonner...but I was 14 so it was hilarious.

    I have a friend who's name is Beyond Joy. Yes, of course his parents were hippies :)

    No one ever takes him seriously when he introduces himself.
