People with bizarre names

[Harry Squatter]

Worked with a woman called Pearl Hollywood, i expected her to be a Jenny McCarthy lookalike but she was middle aged and drab.

 

A lad in my school was called Barry Ireland, we always asked him every day if he went to Barry Island in the summer hols.

 

When I worked in Littlewoods call centre I kept a book of all stupid names - Roddy Boddy, Jason Mason, David Death, John Fuqua, Mike Tool.

[Thants]

We had a temp in our office called Friday Knight. She was a bit odd. I blame the parents.

[Josef Svejk]

I used to go out with a girl whose surname was Ho. I wasn't comfortable with it.

[SammyAftershave]

Didn't think this was worth starting a new thread but couldn't let a beaut of a name like this go unacknowledged:

 

BBC NEWS | World | Americas | Gambling tycoon to forfeit $300m

 

I wonder if he has a nickname?

[halewood pete]

[JohnnyH]

In school with an Ivan Shatwell. So he would now be Mr I Shatwell. Makes me laugh,

[Harry Squatter]

A guy in my work is called Maynard Chitty. There is a large unit called Karen Mountain as well.

[Fugitive]

I know someone called Eddie Murphy.

 

It gives him nothing but grief and he was once stopped by Police who then thought he was taking the piss and had a go at him.

I used to have occasional dealings in work with a Mr Barry Onions

My mate is called Kevin Keegan, he fuckin hates it. He got stopped in town once when he was pissing in a doorway and the police were saying "No fuck off lad, what's your proper name", he gave them his wallet and they realised he was telling the truth.

Once when I was a kid I was looking through the phonebook with my mates to find funny names we could call and take the piss out of. We found someone call Buze-Lise Bugge, and when you say buze in norwegian it's pronounced like the norgie-word for booger or snot. She didn't answer though, shame.

[Faustus]

I used to work in remortgage and we kept track of all the weird names we came across. I can't remember most of them, but Donna Fuckalover was a cracking name.

[05 Milan]

And when I delivered newspapers as a kid, I delivered to a woman called Gurre Grepp. I can assure it's as bizarre in norwegian as english.

[Shanklys Ghost]

All the Chinese try to pick cool sounding english names. Doesnt always work out though.

 

I work with a Challenger and also a Nature. But Nature also answers to the name David for some strange reason.

 

There was always the lad in the year above me in Archbishop Beck, what kind of parent calls their newborn, Graham David Cuthbert Alloicious Mahoney-Pritchard?

 

Thats just asking for an unhappy childhood in Walton.

[Duncan Clench]

I worked at a private bank for a while and there was a customer called Fanny Hole. She was about 90 at the time and is undoubtedly dead, but her memory lives on.

Yeah I wish the Chinese would stop thinking they need English names in order to do business with the west. I deal with a woman who's called herself Lucy. Except she struggles with L so when I answer the phone to her I get "Eh Oh, is ooocy".

Tell her Lucy is short for Lucille and you would prefer to use your proper names.

[Herp McDerp]

All the foreign students from malaysia and that sort of place at our university chose english names for some reason. They always managed to choose ones that didn't fit them at all. One lad was called Arthur. Odd choice.

 

 

 

In my classes this year I've had a 'carrot', 'rabbit' and alicia( a bloke who said he chose alicia cos that was his fave singer). All 3 from China though, not Malaysia...

[She Knows It]

I know of a brother and sister called Jayne and Shayne Payne.

[Duncan Clench]

Oh lordy... I nearly forgot. 2 brothers on my estate where I grew up were called (drum roll)......

 

Garren and Warren Tees.

 

You've got to admire the parents' sense of humour there.

[Fugitive]

'The parents of a toddler named Adolf Hitler have been angered after a shop refused to inscribe his name on a birthday cake. Heath Campbell, 35, and his wife Deborah, 25, attempted to buy their son a cake inscribed "Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler" at a ShopRite supermarket in New Jersey, USA. The shop however described the request as "inappropriate" and refused to make the cake for young Adolf, who has just turned three.

 

'The Campbells, who also have two daughters, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell, and Honsylynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell (named in reference to the SS Heinrich Himmler), were offered a cake with enough room for them to write their own inscription but they refused. ShopRite has also refused to make a cake for Adolf's sister Aryan Nation, who turns two in February.

 

'Mrs Campbell, from Holland Township, New Jersey, said: "ShopRite can't even make a cake for a three-year-old. That's sad."

 

'Regarding their controversial names, Mrs Campbell added: "I just figured that they're just names. They're just kids. They're not going to hurt anybody...They say, 'He (Hitler) killed all those people.' I say, 'You're living in the wrong decade. That Hitler's gone. They're just names, you know. Yeah they (the Nazis) were bad people back then. But my kids are little. They're not going to grow up like that"
