funny names

Post by FlyingAce »

anyone know someone with a funny name? My spanish teacher's name is Mrs. Schlecht (Schlect means "bad" or "horrible" in german) Her name fits her character too! :lol:

My mom, who's a nurse, knows a Dr. Butt (I'm serious) problem is, he's a pediatrist and not a proctologist :P

I know a young lady named Ms. Fick... which I'm told means 'fsck' in German. I bet she'd make a good *nix sysadmin.

I know a Schwinghammer, too.

That's all I can think of.

Knew of a relief teacher called Mr Condon. Wouldn't tell his students his name, but they found out anyway.

This isn't really a 'name' but i've seen many licence plates with 'WTF' on them.
edit: And these are real plates, not any custom ones.
There is no merit where there is not trial; and till experience stamps the mark of strength, fools may past for heroes, and faith for falsehood.

There was a guy who worked at the gold mine near my town here (back in the 190xs) named Catsy Prance. One of my friends saw his old pay stub in the museum or something. I bet he got beat up in school a lot.

Oh! Oh! Some marketing guy for some company with some overpriced product (which we're buying I guess, blah) came by my place of work yesterday.

His name was Skye Ham. I kid you not.

OK, here is my take.

One of sister's teachers in highschool was Miss Tsibuki a term meaning "blowjob"! It was spelled diffently of course (we have more than one vowels sounding like -i- in "it"), but sounded exactly the same.

This message was to also contain the greek spellings, but it seems this board cann't do Unicode... :(

Have a couple pretty good ones, actually...

I went to highschool with a guy named Ian Dick... his dad's name was Harry.

The worst I ever saw I was working for a call in center for a bank. No word of a lie, the guy next to me got a call from a guy named Dick Eater. Poor guy.

Hi,

Troia Felice (trad.: happy whore - btw, Felice is a male name :lol:)

Corridore Valentino (trad.: slowgoing racedriver)

Songs of thoughts only I can hear,
Leave me be to sleep forever,
To dream my dreams,
And sing my hymns,
Of things that will never be...

I read about a guy who lives in a street called "In der Liese", which means "Inside of Lisa". Not too funny for itself, but the guy is selling condoms :oops: .

I saw a tv show about funny names. There was a person called "Rosa Schluepfer", which means "purple panties".

It's not only names for guys which are funny, but also for companies. So if you can not afford Tupperware for your kitchen, go get plastic boxes manufactured by Rubbermaid.
