So…we all know that Peter O’Toole is a famous double-phallic. Also, in Chicago, we have newscaster Dick Johnson and weatherman Peter Sack. I know there are others, but I’m drawing a blank. Come join the fun!
Uh, what exactly is a “double-phallic”? I’m too scared to Google it.
I’m guessing a gentleman (they all are male, right?) whose first and last names are both euphemisms for the male member.
Please, tell me you don’t mean these guys each have two dicks!
Never heard of it before, but double phallic seems to mean a name composed of two slang words for penis. So like, for example, a guy named Peter Wang. Or Dick Johnson as was mentioned.
Not nearly as interesting as I’d hoped/feared on opening the thread.
I’m* hoping* that’s what it means…
Well, there’s this guy.
Igor: “He’d be very popular.”
Bah, I’m another one who is disppointed inb the misleading thread title.
Merely in the spirit of scientific enquiry, of course.
Hmm, well, I think there is a football hereabouts named Willie Johnson, so if Dick, Johnson counts, so does he (although perhaps “willie” only works in Scotland and parts of England).
There is a carpet place up here called Woody Johnson’s Carpet Center. The owner’s name is Woody Johnson.
I’m not kidding. My old company used to sell to them.
Who can beat Woody Wood Pecker ?
Oh, man, we just had a GREAT one come through our lab. Wish I could tell you what it was…stupid federal privacy laws.
“Actor” Tim Dick goes by the stagename Tim Allen.
How about Roddy McDowall?
And not strictly double phallics, but too good not to mention: Magic Johnson and Hugh Johnson.
I forgot to add Randy Johnson.
And then there’s Johnson & Johnson.
I don’t think we should count the modifiers - Randy Johnson - or the doubles where one word refers to something other than penis such as Peter Sack. Two things that go together for sure but only one phallus.
I assume you’ve heard about the sailor who visited a brothel. In a very businesslike manner he undid the buttons on one side of his trouser flap, pulled out his Mk1 Mod 0 pink torpedo, did his business and buttoned back up. Then he suprised the girl by unbuttoning the other side and saying “and now for the other one.”
Within the last year or so, he basically admitted to the “interesting” nature of his name on-air. I was watching while they were doing a fluff (no pun intended) piece on popular fake names for joke pizza orders, according to a poll of delivery pizza places. Paris Hilton was among the most popular. Right after his coanchor finished the story, he somewhat embarrassedly admitted that he’ll often get dubious replies when he calls for a pizza and gives his name. (I guess that’s why I saw him picking one up at a local pizza joint, less hassle maybe? )
I had a professor Richard Peters for a couple of classes.
Well on the boards anyways, the 18" DHIBJD is pretty famous.
We have a local news guy here who’s name is John Thomas, not exactly a double phallic, nothing odd about either first or last name by itself but put them together and there ya go. Everytime I hear his name that Monty Python song runs through my head.
Oh, and count me among the disappointed who misunderstood the double-phallic reference at first glance. My first thought was “Peter O’Toole had two! :eek: Wow!”
