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.

We used to have family friends, a couple called Gordon and Rosie, with 2 kids called Emma and Alex. Not remotely funny in itself. But get this...they then had a 3rd child whom they named Thomas, so that they could sign xmas cards and letters with: "Love from the G.R.E.A.T. Bowerings!"
I swear they had it planned from the start, especially as the initials were in order of age...
Also, there was a German baroque composer called Samuel Scheidt (pronounced Sh.ite). Luckily not very famous.
Other than that, I think if I read about another Mike Hunt or Dick Head, my sides will split open, they really will...
But I do know a Richard Peacock.
