This is a question People with Stupid Names

There are hundreds of unfortunate people out there with silly names desparately coping with the evil their parents perpetrated upon them at birth.

So far, I've met a woman called Rusty Tharp, a child health consultant called Peter Files and have the business card for "Fab Boolaky" on my desk.

We'd like you to tell us about the people you've met or work with that have silly, inappropriate or frankly wierd names.

I have been hearing
that story about Orangejello and Lemonjello for 10+years; they were legendary in the Atlanta area. Also supposedly in Columbus GA there were twins named Hotel and Motel.

Where I work, there's Dick Newdick, Rod Cumming and John H Ung (quite why he insists on the H I don't know ...).

My wife works with a Drew Peacock (say it out loud a few times).

Oh, there's also a Steve Ball at work. Which isn't very funny until you see his login id BALLS.

Did these people have parents who despised children, rather think so.

Mr Randy Bird
When I was at uni there was this american guy called Randy Bird. He'd heard that bird meant woman, but, being american had no concept of what randy was. To top it all he looked like Rolf Harris and people used to take the piss out of him, cept he hadnt got a clue who he was either...

Turkish names
My friends and I met a group of Turkish students whilst underage drinking on a green in Cambridge (as you do). We introduced ourselves, got chatting and only then got around to asking their names. I forget most of them, but one in particular stands out: her name was Minge.

Cue much choking on beer as we struggled to control our hysterics, while this poor girl looked on confused. We entirely failed at finding a nice way to explain it to her and had to give it to her straight - the look of horror on her face was priceless!

She insisted that everyone call her Claire from then on.

My last name is Witcher. My being a strange, strange little girl made for a lot of "witch" jokes. But by far the best derivitive is "It's colder then a Witcher's tit."
I also have known people named Forrest Green and Sterling White.

I used to work for an insurance company..........
...and we had a client called Mr Glasscock. I kid you not.

One of the best ones though was a call to my mother (also working there). The lady on the other end of the phone asking about the policy she had taken out for her daughter sy-oh-barn (phonetically).

My dad worked with an Ivan Overall, and a guy Brian Allen, who due to spelling mistakes on his personnel files, which were stored by surname, was known as the Alien Brain.

My maiden name was a classic though, it wasnt till I pointed out to my parents in my teens they noticed I was (to my class at school) Mary "had a little" Lambert......
