mike hunt
we did have the usual crap teacher names like Mr Potter the art teacher and Mr Carpenter the cdt teacher but our form tutor was Phillip Michael Hunt, we always found Phil Mike Hunt was funny even if he didn't have one.

there are far too many that I know of
There is a family locally with the surname House, so what do they call their kids? Wendy House & Maxwell House.
I've met a Miss Fit, Theresa Green, Violet Hayes, and spoken to Sergent Dick Head
My Father works in a prison where he met an inmate by the name of Ben Dover, and another called Mustapha Kamel.
/edit nearly forgot, I spoke to a customer called Mr Free R Marijuana (obviously a deed poll job) and also Iwona Wanke (a pole dancer so she said) and also Mr Eric P Foreskin.
I often wondered if that was real or a deed poll job!

Pass by name
New Scientist ran (and gave up due to the vast amount of input) a letters page section on nominative determinism.

My favourite ND day included meetings with Quentin H Todslaughter (and no he wouldn't reveal what the H stood for) and Cornelia Boldyreff of SWURCC (which I assumed was an anagram for something particularly rude)

I used to know
a guy at uni called Joss Stick. He said his parents were hippies.
And there's a girl at work called Talia Watts, which is her married name. You'd think she might have asked to keep her maiden name, but no.

Working in a certain utility company's offices (for now)
I have seen the following fine names:

There is a woman in the North-East of England named Gail Ord.

A company in Scotland: Alan Twatt (Potatoes) Ltd.

I saw a Mrs. Lynette Spong just a week or so back.

But the best name ever, 100% of fact, is a Mr Ramjam Funkyboogaloo-Smyth. Don't believe me? enclicken.

I've got a history professor this semester named "Mr. Sur"

Mister...Sir...

Okay, it's not as funny as Richard Randy Wankerman-Shaggington, so sue me.

What's the deal with naming your son "Randy"? It's not even a question of being American. Randy means the same thing in the US as it does in the UK, so that isn't any kind of excuse.

There was a law lecturer at Sheffield uni called Roger Brownsword. I'm not making it up either, try Googling for his name!

My mum used to play
'doctors and nurses' with a bloke called Boak Jobbins, when she was about four (he was about four as well, I'm not accusing him of being a perv.) He lived in the same block of flats as her with his family including his brother Cobbity. Anyway, he became the arch dean of the anglican church in Sydney (he did Michael Hutchin's funeral)and so it came to pass that the head of the anglican church, in Sydney, has seen my mother's arse. There. By the way, Prince Charles has seen my nob (also true).

Working with diagnostic samples in a hospital
I am always amazed at the pure stupidity of some parents. Names I can think of at the moment are:

Gilda Womble
Bonnie Kuntz
Airdreamer Green

There are far worse ones I just can't think of them at the moment.

I know a bloke at work called Dick Kidd. Most people are fairly tactful but one Geordie bloke I work with loves lazily pronouncing his name Dickidd.

Ahh,
Recently my cousin had a child to a bloke nicknamed 'Woody', as his second name is 'Wood' (ordinary so far...) She decided on the christian name 'Woody' after his Dad. But the thing is that they're keeping it's surname 'Wood'. 'Woody Wood', the poor kid, will have the piss taken out him forever.

Also a know a man called 'John cockburn' (ouch).

Poor poor baby
Having just had a baby, we'd been attending an ante-natal class in South London.
One set of parents to be, fans of Selhurst's favourite sons - the Eagles - called their newborn daughter Crystal Alice.
I shit you not.

I once went on a science week
And there was a very unfortunately named boy - a "Ben Durr".

Then of course, when you twin this with a teacher who says the first name with the last name in an extremely quick way... Not to mention that there were Lancastrian teachers, and so:
"Not in my class Ben Durr, lad".

How we laughed...
