A man was walking down a road in a residential part of town. He saw a pretty girl playing in the garden and stopped to talk to her.
"Hello dearie, what's your name?" he said. He's not a paedo, by the way.
"My name is Blossom!" said the little girl, with a twinkle in her eye and a cheerful laugh.
"Why, that's an unusual name!" explained the man. "How did your parents choose that?"
"Well," said Blossom, "when I was first born my parents took me out into the garden. They hadn't named me yet, but the wind caught the branches of the cherry blossom tree and a single petal landed on my forehead. They took it as a sign and called me Blossom."
The man, too polite to dismiss this as hippy bollocks, nodded and agreed it was a pretty name and oh-so-original. Suddenly, a younger girl ran out of the house to join her sister. She was sweet, with golden curls and a cheeky grin.
"Ah, this is Sunbeam!" Blossom said. "Can you guess why she's called Sunbeam?"
The man shook his head. Blossom continued. "Well, when she was first born my parents took her into the living room. It was such a dreary day, but suddenly the clouds parted and a single ray of sunlight came into the room and touched the baby on the head. They took it as a sign and named her Sunbeam!"
The man was just about to say what a pretty name it was, when a third child ran out of the house. Well, ran might be too kind. The child- he couldn't tell if it was a boy or a girl, it was so hideous- shambled up and let loose a stream of nonsense syllables.
The two sisters gave the child a scathing look, and said "Shut up, Fridge."

Though when telling it aloud you must be careful not to be too loud.
