I once knew a guy with an exclamation mark in his name (he was South African I think, or something similar). It was pronounced like a click at the back of your tongue.
He'll be Xhosa, then, they have eighteen click consonants, produced in three different parts of the mouth.
I can barely get by speaking English correctly!

My wife's sisters baby is called Apostollos Apostollopodous. No really!!! I can't say it without bursting into hysterics. If it wasn't my sister in laws kid I just wouldn't believe that someone would be called it.
Not to the standard of some but:
Worked with a John Lennon who told some of the best stories. One being caught having a pee by the Police when in Bradford. Seems they were not in a laughing mood.
Also a Barry White, small bespectacled guy of Caucasian extraction.

An American lad I once worked with briefly had a middle name of "Seven." His mum - sorry, mom - reasoned that some day we'll all be numbers.
Wasn't there someone on here who had a colleague called Wayne Bruce, known to one and all as Manbat?
http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/nicknames-have-we-done-this#post-8096506
Seems there's a STW'er called Manbat also, who made one post four years ago. I don't know whether I'm disappointed or thrilled that his real name appears to be Dave.
