If you go and look at the records for college hockey, specifically in the CCHA conference I believe there was a Western Michigan hockey player named Bryce Cockburn.

I lived in Chula Vista CA for several years and we had a dentist there whose name was Dr. Speedy Nutz. I don't know where it came from but it has always stuck in my mind.

There was a Japanese Prime Minister called Noburu Takeshita

It was reported in a British newspaper in the 1970's that a university was trying to persuade a German student to change her name to avoid embarassment (to them, not her) - her name was Fraulein Fucker, and they were trying to persuade her to change it to Ducker.

My brother's neigbours were the Kurten family - they had a daughter called Annette

I don't get all the Annette Curtains. Oh, well. My German teacher said there was a restaurateur named Kackebart, which means "shitbeard". Unfortunate names we know are real are Mia Hamm (good thing she's not an actor) and Dick Van Dyke. A friend of mine worked in a call center and once took a call from a Miss Thunderpussy. It's possible that such names are like "Chenandeler Bong" on Friends--things people do to track the selling of their personal information.

The Japanese prime minister's name is pronounced Tak-esh-ta.
Phuket is in Thailand and pronounced Pu-ket.
In Birmingham, UK, there was aleading city councillor called Albert Bore, election slogan:"Vote A Bore."
I saw a story in Private Eye once about a guy in New Zealand called Trevor Itchyanus.

A guy I went to school with ended up with 2 kids the boy was William and the girl Hannah, surname Ball. Willy Ball? and Hannah Ball. The father is a vet

this is a real news story from the french press:


Crazy Horse lives ... but airline wants proof

Sat Dec 4, 8:17 AM ET

LONDON (AFP) - Jeremy Brown from Northern Ireland may rue the day he decided to change his name to Crazy Horse Invincible, partly because he did so after one too many drinks, but mainly because his new identity is causing more hassle that it may be worth.

The Belfast office of low cost airline Jet2.com recently refused to accept one of his bookings on line, deciding that someone calling himself Crazy Horse Invincible must be up to no good.

"Crazy Horse's name raised an eyebrow with the bookings team, so we had to double-check," said Steve Lee, Jet2.com's director, of his decision to request that Crazy Horse made a personal appearance at the airline on Friday to prove his identity.

Crazy Horse, 26, decided to officially change his name one night in 2003, after celebrating the victory of his favourite football team, English club Middlesbrough, in the company of a pal and several drinks.

"It was one of those nights - I think Boro (Middlesbrough) had won - so me and a mate were celebrating. You have a few too many and you come up with crazy plans. Mine were quite literally Crazy", said Crazy Horse.

When the airline staff finally satisfied itself that all was in order, Crazy Horse received his ticket and will now be able to travel to the Czech capital where he and his friend, who now answers to the name Spaceman Africa -- who apparently had no trouble getting a plane ticket -- intend to spend their Christmas holidays.

My step-siblings are all "Loveless".First names: Taber, Toby, Tammy, Tawna and Trevor.

The infamous name Rick Head has surfaced again. In the latest issue of Hot Rod Magazine, somebody by that name won a racing event the magazine was putting on. You should see the photos - they had a gag prize that looks a lot like a Burger King crown, and the Camaro that Mr. Head drove featured one of the strangest paint jobs I've seen.

I dated a girl back in '93 named Candy Sue Good. heh heh "good" stuff. I heard she got married, ruining a perfectly "good" name.

In Fremont, NE where I grew up there is a plumbing company owned by the Rump family. Yes, it's Rump's Plumbing, and the owner's first name is Harry.

There is a Cook County prosecuter named Dick Devine. He's a dignified, respected man, but for the life of me I can't figure out why he doesn't go by Richard (a common theme on this page). Anyway, I think that would make a great porn name.....

Ben Wang took a picture of two planes that look like they're touching each other when they're not.

I used to know a Candice Cane, but she went by Candy. Candy Cane. Not joking. I'm a second hand source for the following, though: Dusty Porch, Icy Rink, Tom Thompson... pretty brutal.

Biggest real estate agent in Conway, Arkansas was named Dick Longing. Alas, the company passed to his son, who changed the name to something not funny.

At Georgia Tech the new engineering/science building is named after Dr. Ernskine Love and his wife Gay. That's right, she was named Gay Love. The building was named the Love Building but it would have been better/funnier if it were named the Gay Love Building.

one of my college proffesors name was Harry Lhongesta Dick he siad it was asian or something

Another Ripley's name: Harry H. Beaver. He was some guy named on a plaque in my church in VA, which always caused screachy laughs from the immature Sunday school kids. And myself.

There's a Steve Suk that plays hockey for the Macon Whoopie, some Georgia amateur team.

If I'm such a jock why am I so strapped?

I knew this girl when I was growing up that was named Tammy Turnipseed. I've also come across a Gugi Oygster, Kimberly Wimberly, Ian Frankenstein, and James rides at the door.

The Urologist that did my vasectomy several years ago was Dr. Dick Chop.

I was driving through Maine with a friend years ago and saw a sign that said "Dick Swett for Mayor". We laughed all the way to Vermont.

Also, a girlfriend of mine very briefly dated a man name Mike Quatsch - as her friends, we were pretty much compelled to ask her the name of who she was dating, everytime we saw her. All comedy, all the time.

Here in New Zealand, I work for a large company that has many people with odd names. The two I know personal are an American engineer named Al Christ, who married a local girl called Helen. Think upon that name change.

Then again, down south we have a senior operations manager named Portly Griffith. How appropo the name is I cannot vouch for.
