In college, it made it around the dorm that there was a guy in the local directory named “Anil Dikshit”.
Dikshit is also an Indian name.
Actually after googling dikshit, I found this Anil Dikshit:
You should see how he takes a throat culture!
Heh heh. Dick. Shit. Heh Heh.
With a name like that, it’s no wonder he avoided proctology. Think of the jokes!
You’re the ASSMAN!!
Well, it’s not that it’s foreign, it’s the juxtaposition with Warrier. After all, I’m not making fun of the Welsh name, but when someone asks me “Do you have a pen, Gwen”, that’s comedy gold.
The typo that launched a thousand proctologists.
My dad’s dermatologist is Dr. Rashly. :eek:
Since it is tax season, I am compelled to mention that the nice Indian gentleman who did our taxes some years ago was named C.U. Mehta.
He was not, however, a proctologist.
Heh, I laughed at the OP. Then I thought: wait a second, how do I know my name doesn’t sound like Hindi word for “goatlicker” or something?
No I’m going to be up all night worrying.
I saw one of those changing-my-name announcements in the paper a few months ago. Guy had one of those long, convoluted Indian surnames, which he was keeping. He was just changing his first name from Anal to Nick. Undoubtably to avoid all those proctology jokes.
He was. Once. In 1960. For 20 minutes.
Once he left, he never went back.
Everyday I drive past a Doctor’s Office with the name Dr Uday Dixit. It sounds like it could be rude, but isn’t. Always makes me laugh though.
In soviet Russia proctologist make fun of your name.
Sorry, couldn’t help

I’m reminded of the South Korean stem-cell researcher with the name Hwang Woo-suk. (I’ve also seen it “Woo-suk Hwang”.)
But as to the OP - at least he wasn’t a proctologist!
Wait, wait, wait. I don’t think I’m clear on this.
He’s not a proctologist?
Here in Tulsa, we have a Dr. Dick Glick. I’m not sure what his specialty is. Oral surgery maybe?? I dunno…
Awhile ago, I looked at an attorneys’ seminar brochure, and discovered that it was being taught by a Professor P. Dicky Yip. Not only is it funny, but it really rolls right off the tongue very nicely.
Dolores Payne was one of the midwives in the hospital where I gave birth. I believe it was her married name.
Would you believe no one calls them proctologists anymore? They’re now “colo-rectal specialists”.
Takes all the fun out of things, if you ask me.
