Kevin Wardrobe intoduced himself to me in a meeting, I asked him to spell it he said "no it's ok it really is wardrobe" 😀

I've come across a Dipa Mistry
I used to work with a chap with that surname. We used to call him "International Man Of".
Once interviewed a lad called Satnam. We'd spent a good half an hour making sat-nav jokes and being reduced to uncontrollable giggles before he turned up. When he arrived, my colleague opened with, "Good to meet you..." *beat* "... find us alright?" and I had to run into another room to recover.
Does anyone on here work for BT? If so check the internal directory. When I worked there a good few years ago there was both a Bob Sherunkle and a Fanny Sharant.
That has to be either an urban myth or some witty IT staff creating test accounts, surely.
My local GP was called Dr. Pain
Dutch friend who's first name sounds like 'Koon' not a name you want to call out in a packed bar!
ex girlfriend had the last name, Titensaw.
I've never come across anyone with a funny name.....

When I worked for HSBC in Hong Kong we spent may a happy lunch hour going through the staff directory. Some of the highlights I remember were - Kontrol Kong, Hitler Wong, Spoon Poon, and wait for it... drumroll ... Fanny Pong!
What about the skier called Fanny Schmeller.
The Chinese students on my post grad course had a habit of adopting European names to help them integrate. One whose surname was pronounced 'tongue' but was actually spelt 'thong' adopted the quintessentially English but desperately unfortunate name of 'Fanny'.
So Fanny Thong.
Also used to know a Bhatti Crack
I've come across a few Conchas in my time. 8)

I've seen this too. It's a great idea, but they always seem to pick old-fashioned names. I don't know where they get them from.
I used to speak to a Chinese lass fairly regularly who had taken the name Joyce, which is a nice enough name and all, but not one you'd expect for a girl in her 20s.
Can we all just cut to the chase and acknowledge the greatest of them all?

When I was growing up our local vet was Peter Nutt. He and his wife ran the practice together. The plaque on the wall outside their office honestly read
Veterinary Surgeon: P.Nutt
Veterinary Assistant: Hazel Nutt
Veterinary Surgeon: P.Nutt
Veterinary Assistant: Hazel Nutt
Do you think they knew?
Richard Lunn.
Nothing too amusing until someone pointed out that Lunn* is Punjabi for penis, so he became Dick-Dick from then on 🙂
*Due to pronounciation I'm told Lan would also work, so wireless LAN...
I was interviewed once by a guy called Martin Martin
A friend of mine started a new job working in a factory in Liverpool a while back. Presently, she had to speak to a guy her colleagues told her was called Warren.
Weeks went by, with her regularly dealing with Warren. After a couple of months of this she had to email him, and couldn't find a 'Warren' in the address book. She went to query this with him.
"My name's not Warren," he informed her, "it's Dave, the guys just call me Warren."
"Oh, right. Why do the call you Warren then?"
"It's short for 'Warren Uglybastard'... "
I once received a CV from a guy called Deep Bumma.
Ridiculous.

I live in the village of Willey (pronounced Willy and is near Rugby) a while ago we had some visitors from Chilliwack in Canada visit.
Jan and Bob didn't understand why people in the UK, were amused by the name Willey. Once the reason had been explained the both lughed and said Just wait till we tell our neighbour back in Canada .... his name was Randy Willey .... neither name means the same over there.
Randy Willy from Chilliwack... amused me.
Kuntal Sogi - maybe there is a SFW way to pronounce it.....
