Time yet again for another installment of " Amusing Names"

Let’s see…I used to keep a list of odd names I came across at work. Some of my favorites:
Chastity Lovely (who has no choice but to become a stripper or porn star)
Santa Ho
Scarlett Ho
Tomorrow Kitchen
Candy Fudge
Roosevelt Washington
Katherine Kuntz
Virginia Fuchs
Karl Rectanus

Best names I’ve run across at work:

Sheri (pronounced Cherry) Love
Crystal Dew (cousin of Mountain?)

Good last names:

Littlebeaver (we do some work with Indian reservations)
Grothendick (long o)

I got “Jenna Taylor,” but what’s funny about “Donna Hughes?” I also went to school with a Donna Hughes, and if there was anything funny about that name, surely mean schoolkids would’ve picked up on it. And “Constance Cummings?” There was a relatively well-known actress named Constance Cummings.

As for me, I have patronized an eye doctor named Dr. I. Glasser and a dry cleaner named Tee Hee. Oh, and the doctor and nurse in my high school were named Dr. Hertz and Mrs. Paine. No foolin’!

Some of these names have had me LOL - TY!

I went to school with a Penny Lane and Keely Bytheway, and my stepdad worked with a Donald Duck. There is a large family of Squelch’s round here, who probably live near the Squeals. I don’t know any of them personally, but both families often put birth notices and so on in the local paper. Imagine if a Squelch married a Squeal!

My daughter goes to school with Elvis. Additonally, one of her best friends is called Amelia True, which is not a funny name but very cute. And my own real-life name is Sam Hills.

Seen while filing today - Dwain Strain. Now, why would parents DO that?
I think I’m going to start my own weird name list, Shirley. I run across them all the time and then forget them. There was one guy at the last job I was at named something like Percival Hornswallow - if I’d just written it down, I could have posted it here!

My friend works with a guy named ‘Dick Bent.’

My eighth-grade English teacher was Mr. Cool. :cool:

He wasn’t, really.

My SIL had a girl in her class: **Mickey Mao **

I use to know a **Kevin Kline **

My uncle by marriage is **Bob Wagner **

I had a client named John Rice who married a girl named Ann. They made all hotel reservations in her name and always got really good treatment.

I have a cousin **Ted Kennedy ** and my Grandpa was **Joe Kennedy **

**Cruel Name ** I had a client named **Dover Roper ** No, really.

One of my favorite last names I’ve come across is **Honeyjager **(the J is pronounced like a Y, for the Germanically impaired.) which translates into honey hunter. If that isn’t a German Porn Star name I don’t know wha is. If I ever enter the witness protection program, Honeyjager is the new name for me!

I forgot this one.

Funny to pronounce Dwayne Dupuis which is said Du-pree. Very cruel of his parents.

Well let me just list them…

Phuc Hung - pronounced (fook hoong) - but it sure is fun to call out his name while returning graded papers.

Harry Cox - You better believe he exists.

Ginger Honey - while not dirty it does have the “pornstar” ring.

And from the “It’s a small world” dept., I went to elementry school with his daughters. No fooling.

hmmm, I went to school with an Autumn Wood in Richmond, B.C.
(BTW - her middle name was Leaf)

Small world eh?

one of my biology textbooks, called “Living Things” was written by “V. Slaughter”

while browsing through a list of foreign movie directors, i found someone called “Clarence Fok-Yiu”

and i have a friend who swears that a relative of his, Noel Christmas, named his daughter Mary.

While we were in college, an international student came into the bursars office where my brother worked whose name was, I kid you not,

Phat Phuk Ho

Saw another good one at work today: Irvine Heavy Runner-Prairie Chicken (yes, he’s Native). I had visions of the Roadrunner from Bugs Bunny in my head when I saw that name.

It was either Wood or Woods; I remember looking at the photos of the past graduating classes, and that name just stuck out for me. (I wonder why? :)) That was her middle name? Are you serious? That just makes it more odd, or amusing, if you will. Definitely a small world.

I have an acquaintance by the name of Bora Ucok. He sometimes works as a motivational speaker, and he uses his name as part of his spiel.

dr_mom_mcl once worked with a guy named Dr. Death. Pronounced deeth, apparently.

And she had an acquaintance in high school called Laurel Sprigs.

Finally, I’ve heard of a lady named Crystal Lear, middle name Shanda. How cruel is that!

One of my boyfriend’s favorite stories:

He was bored at work. He and his cronies started typing random curses into the client database. They came up with, no joking, a nice old lady named Nelly Cuntrot.

A cow-orker once swore she’d known a guy called Richard Head. And an ex-SO claimed she’d known a woman called Kerry Hunt.

Today while watching the England vs. Denmark soccer match, Mr. Ujest pointed out that there were two UK team mates named: Butt and **Seaman **. Now where is that Mr. Allcock on the field when you need him?
