Whats the Silliest Name?

Recommended Posts

At uni I met a girl with the surname Horniblow ..... I'm sorry to say I giggled when she introduced herself :o Not surprisingly perhaps our acquaintanceship didn't really recover from the first meeting .... :P

 

StarSparkle :hihi:

We've all heard of 'Ben Dover', but earlier I heard the Yorkshire version, on the news I think it was... Ben Door.

I've just remembered the Akuma-chan incident which drew national attention about 10 years ago. A young couple tried to name their son Akuma. :o The city didn't accept the application because akuma (=devil) is not appropriate for name. In the end, they chose another name.

I've heard of a young girl called Wednesday Joy Adams - poor girl.

 

Also, a guy once told me that he'd heard of a woman who called her two kids Red and Blue!

I had a teacher called Ann Pratt (it said A Pratt on her locker)! I once spoke to a man who changed his name to 'Pink Dandelion'. The very famous one in the place I used to work was a customer who was called Adaepo S h i t t a! I think we all looked at that file at one time or another :D
