Unfortunate Last Names
I've always thought my last name was pretty bad. And I mean that in the literal sense. 'Boese' means 'bad' (or angry) in German. But its meaning wouldn't matter much if only English-speaking people could pronounce it (it's 'burr-za', as if it had an 'r' in it... not 'boose'). But I shouldn't feel too sorry for myself, because this guy in Brazil, Mr. Reinhardt Adolfo Fuck, has me beat hands down. As far as I can tell, that really is his name. He must get endless jokes about it.

The best I have ever seen was in basic training in the army. There were two soldiers; one was named Hiscock and the other Loving. The drill sergeants paired them together as "battle buddies" just so they could say "loving his cock get over here" with no comma.

this one was very unfortunate and previously posted, i feel it needs to be reminded again

an application for a turkish mba student is accepted by some shool, however the guy's name is Oral Taker. -not a common name in turkish either.

3 years he spent at the usa was a total nightmare.

(i guess his parents could never think of this)

There once was a judge in the NY Syaye court named Judge Peter Schmuck.
He would not let anyone in his court get a name change.

"he would not let anyone in his court get a name change"

So, he was truly a Schmuck, then?

Worked recently with a chap named Wayne King. There is a Rugby League player here by the name of Carmichael Hunt. Never heard him called Mike. Also knew of a Plumber F.L. Oats.

My last name is Bullerdick. Had a harsh time growing up as a girl with that last name-but my dad seems to suit it. It's very masculine and appeared omnious to the gentlemen who would pick me up for dates. Yet-someday, when I marry, I'll be taking my husband's last name. Hopefully it will be Smith or Jones!

Well, if your ever in an area where there's a WaWa (a convenient store in the tristate area) look at the coffee cups. The guy who started WaWa, his name is Dick Wood. I personally find this funny as hell.

Parents have 9 months to contemplate their child's name....in most cases, it's not misfortune, but parental ignorance or outright cruelty.

Im my school there is one kid named Jacob Jacobs.
In my town there is a family with the last name Whitehead (everyone in the family is a redhead), they actually called their daughter Poppy, thus making it Poppy Whitehead.
My friends boyfriend is called Richard Head, he goes mental when people call him Dick lol.
My last name is Hook, I asked Mum what other names she was thinking of calling me, she said that Dad wanted me to be called Fish, thus making my name Fish Hook, I'm glad Mum chose Brad as my name instead.
A girl at my school is called Shiny Penny.
The finance officer at my school is Haddor Way (had her way).
And finnaly my Dad's best friends last name is Sane, guess what he called his son...yep Justin, making it Justin Sane.
Victor Harbor must be the place for funny names.

My father was a Rabbi. When he was studying at the seminary in Cincinnati, one of the underclassmen was Richard C. Hertz (1916-1999), who later had a distinguished career in the Chicago and Detroit areas.

They put on a skit. My father played the professor who was performing a roll call. As he called out "Who's such-and-so?", each time one student would raise his hand. When he called out "Who's Dick Hertz?", they all raised their hands.

This is nothing suggestive, but the last name in my local telephone directory is Zebo Zzzent. Really, three consecutive Z's. He graduated last in his class, at least at the ceremony.
There used to be a Chris Shithead. He is no longer listed. Damned kids.
We do still have a Ravi Shitut and an Osama Aaflaq.

I studied in Argentina for a semester and I can't forget one ad I saw from a beauty salon. The featured stylist's last name was Fucks and on the bottom part it has simulated pen writing: Her first name followed by her last name of Fucks and in Spanish it said to call her e.g. Elizabeth Fucks llame (Call) 456-6564. Eeminded me of the messages you see written in a bathroom stall. I confirmed that the simulated pen writing was real because I saw another company ad with another featured stylist with her first and ordinary last name written with the same message urging the viewer to call the phone number for an appointment. I told this to a couple of Argentines but they didn't see the humor unless I explained it to them. I am sure somebody or tourist called Ms. Fucks. I wish I at least took a photo to send it to Howard Stern. 😉
