I used to know a Sgt. Carter, and man, did we make with the Gomer Pyle jokes. Fortunately, he had a good sense of humor about it.
There’s a boy in my son’s class who’s called California Green, his mother’s name is Siren and his father’s called Ollie! I think they’re quite bizarre names!

My mom once had a professional acquaintance with a man named Royal King. His wife’s name was Victoria.

I know of a Major Gay. His first name fortunately is not Lee.
I always say this: but there was a Jack Wang that went to my brother’s high school.
On one of the teams in our local softball league last summer we discovered the Green sisters, Emerald and Jade. There was also a girl at my daughter’s school whose given names were Forest Jade. Yep, last name Green.
When my sister was just a young teacher she had a boy in her class named Ty. Not Tyler, just Ty. Son of Dr. Tack. I only hope he had a middle name he could use.
It has always puzzled me as to why the media in Australia hasn’t made more mileage out of the names of the 2nd and 3rd ranked politicians in our governing Liberal party - Tony Abbott and Peter Costello. You only need to see them in action in the parliamentary broadcasts on our national public TV network to realise how aptly they are named. :rolleyes:
My mother went to high school with a girl named Godzilla Jones.
I went to school with a guy named Blake. I loved his name so much that I named my son Blake.

It’s pronounced “shib-ish” (Americanized Polish).

He goes by his middle name though like any intelligent person would.
I knew a man called Hamid Badbakht-Bichaare, which translates from Farsi to English as, roughly.: Hamid Helpless-Miserable. I have no idea. No idea.
I used to know a Wendy Day. And I once had a customer whose first name was Lasagna. I don’t know if she pronounced it like a pasta dish, but I did get her to confirm the spelling, thinking that what I saw couldn’t possibly be right. It was.
I would also like to personally thank whomever the doper was that brought to light a gentleman with a most hysterically unfortunate name: Roger Mycock
This as become my hotmail address 
I had a small growth removed from my left hand. The surgeon’s name?
Dr. Groper. 'tis true.
