In my job I quite often have to call people with names that might be regarded as having comedy value. For example, I once had to speak with a Chinese woman who for the sake of her western colleagues had adopted the classic British name ‘Fanny’. That might not have been so bad except that her surname was ‘Thong’ thus ‘Fanny Thong’.

Barati Crack was also mildly ammusing, as was Randy Bellows.

They all pale into insignificance with the following, all time comedy name:

Anurag Dikshit – the brains behind Partygaming.com – It’s one of those that you just have to think is made up until you Google him: Clicky

I once had to deal with a client who had a son called Kuntal Sogi.

I just referred to him as “your son”

Guy in our firm id Dave De’ath
I have a customer called Mr Field. He’s a farmer!

Susan Bumgardner was my fave in a previous job. Now there’s a Fishy Dong (spelling might be different) and Wan Kin Man.

A colleague had to deal with a lovely little old lady called Mrs D Evil – I didn’t believe it till I saw the official documentation in her name!

Work in telemarketing. It never fails to amaze me how many people have names that suit their jobs. We started to write them down a while back, and used to use it as a marketing tool, but people refused to believe it. Mr Car the taxi driver, Mr Bun the baker, Mr Snap the photographer…Endless.

There’s a US polititian called Randy Bumgardner. makes me laugh… 😆

Used to work with A. Pratt

Here is a BBC article on the subject …Ceck out the comments especially J Taylors’

There was someone at school called Phil Macheter. 😯

I have to move around for work and as a consequence you get to meet laods of people. I once met a guy called Alan Burke.

Poor blighter. What were his parents thinking of. They had given him a christian name which combined with his sirname would leave him signing anything:-

A. Burke.

I mean, couldn’t they have chosen any other name but one that started with an A.

You could tell that going through life with such a name, had effected him.

I once knew a Dave Chicken too. Again, you could tell that he’d just about heard any and every joke you could think of.

Just looked at the BBC page – Loved Jenny Taylor.

On a related subject, the utility company PowerGen have an Italian division. Apparently their website is still under construction: http://www.powergenitalia.com

Went to Uni with Michael Hunt.

My wife’s friend, Kerry, insisted on keeping her maiden name (Taylor) and double-barrelling it to her husband’s surname (Oakey) thus becoming Kerry Taylor-Oakey. Can’t imagine why, I think Kerry Oakey is a great name!

A doctor, GP in Feltham, who looked after my family (till the 1st time we needed him), was called Satanatan.

Don’t have the company address book to hand but some do stick in the memory.

I used to deliver mail to an Axel A Hellwig. Not a double entendre, just an awesome name. He really should have been a rock star or something with that name, but I don’t think that he was.

Used to go to school with Andrew and Peter Nuss – work it out.

Personally I still find it hard to believe that the footballing Neville brothers have dad called…………..

Neville!
