Another NPR correspondent - Neda Ulaby. I just like the way it sounds.
So, how in the world did plain old Paul Brown get hired by NPR???
(I used to listen to Paul when he was news director at WFDD down here in North Cackalackey).
Benedict Cumberbatch
Joey Jojo Junior Shabadoo
If there was ever a man whose birth name was straight out of a Dickens novel, it is him. 
WHOA! That’s quite a name to live UP to.
There was a contestant on American Idol a few years ago named Didi Benami.
To this day, my wife and I still like to say her name in a sort of sing-song, Pikachu voice.
“Didib’NAMI!”
My favorite from sports was a running back from the Ohio State University, Hiawatha Francisco.
Apropos of nothing (other than the numerous mentions of NPR on-air personalities), it took me years to realize it’s “Marco Gorman”, not “Mark O’Gorman”.
If you’re talking about PRI’s The World, it’s Marco Werman.
I’ve been amused by the name of gold-medal winning swmmer Ranomi Kromowidjojo.
I’m going to name my next kitten that.
Like something you sing to your infant daughter to lull her to sleep.
Seriously, does NPR require their on-air talent to have mellifluous monikers? “I’m sorry, Mr. Smith. While the Pulitzer you won at the New York Times is impressive, we feel you’re just not right for NPR. Try CNN.”
How about KwaZulu Minister Mangosutho Buthulese? 
Add to “to do” list: Get. Ears. Checked. Now.
Thank you, ThelmaLou.
Great name (although probably not so great for Nigeria):
Goodluck Jonathan
I intend to adopt this policy immediately, along with calling the current prime minister of Israel “Benjamin Netan-YA-HOOOOOOOOO!”
I can recall being shocked – but not displeased – to learn that the “Marketplace” host I’d always known as “Guy Rizdoll” is actually Kai Ryssdal.
Lynne Rossetto Kasper has a pretty decent name, but an absolute purr in her voice when she talks about interesting or beloved foods on The Splendid Table.
For years I thought I was listening to Daniels Wordling instead of Daniel Zwerdling. I always thought it interesting there was someone named “Daniels” instead of “Daniel.” :smack:
