    I remember a guy in high school whose last name was Cloud. His parents gave him the name-"White Rain Cloud". Parents can be cruel,as a neighbor of ours had the name- Sonny Ott Butt. Initials= S.O.B.

    Guy down the street from me--I used to keep his business car in my wallet--is named Harold Beaver. He goes by Harry, of course, and he is an OB/GYN. Now if that ain't funny, I don't know what it.

    A good friend of mine's name is Rich Harder II. His dad obviously didn't have any problem with it as he actually goes by the name of Dick Harder. Still, I can remember the first time I heard his name I was like "what, you're kidding right?".

    Knew two guys. One named Goff, the other Emhoff. Everybody called them both Jack.Knew guys named Connie, Cheryl and Shirley.Found out later that Connie was short for Constantine.Cheryl was spelled Sherill.Shirley was actually Shirl E. ****** which was painted on the side of his pickup truck. Remember those days?The name I still can't understand is Evelyn Waugh, a British writer. My teacher pronounced it Eve Lynn instead of the usual Evelyn. Still!Oh yeah, met a girl once named Kris Kringle.Met her just after Christmas in fact. She puked on me.

    A Memphis radio station has a daily "Bad Baby Name of the Day". Check out www.drakeandzeke.com and look for "Bad Baby Names". As far as I know they are all true. The names are sent in from local hospitals and newspapers. There are some bad names there, I can promise you.

    My Dad is a bill collector, and as part of his job, he has a CD Rom that lists every listed phone number in the United States by name of the person on the account. He could literally spout these off for hours, as when he is bored he looks up goofy names. Some of my favorites that he has told me are:Connie LingusHarry DickHarry BallHarry HeinieDick Nastyetc. etc. etc.

    heard these from friends who work labor & delivery:Lady wanted to name her daughter * because she thought the word sounded "so pretty". Boy named Richard Lee: Dick LeeTwins Lemangelo and Orangelo; think lemon jello and orange jello, the pronunciation will be close.I wonder if these mothers were all patients of Harry Beaver?[This message has been edited by Mom Mom (edited 10-24-2001).]

    A lady named Fonda Peters.Really. And she married to get such a name.Once I stopped a Vietnamese fellow and he presented a Driver License that showed his last name to be "Phuc." I did not know enough about his language to know how to pronounce it properly.

    I used to drive truck cross-country and saw in a little town a store named Ian Mac Tavish, Chinese Laundry. Being the nosey guy I am I entered the place to see what was what...I asked the proprieter why the Scottish name when he was so Chinese looking....he told me that when he came thru Ellis Island in the 1930's it was very busy and the immigration official was asking names as folks came thru the line. The man directly in front of the laundryman was a huge scot with flaming red hair. When asked the scot replied " my name is Ian MacTavish". The chinaman was next in line and when asked he said "Sam Ting".................this is a joke son!

    One of the local deputies I run into occasionally told me he stopped a guy named Bumpis Mcphumpis. It is pronounced Mcfumpiss. When he told the deputy his name he didn't believe it and was beginning to think Bumpis was screwing with him. The guy didn't have any Identification and was about to be taken in for prints and mug shots when another deputy arrived. The second deputy knew Bumpis and he was cited and released. What were his parents thinking?
