And Something Funny...........
Airport security event
Customs Official : 'May I know your name?'
Passenger : 'Batman'
Customs Official : 'What's your name!?'
Passenger : 'My name is Bat-man'
Customs Official : 'Trying to be funny? What's your surname?'
Passenger : 'Super-man'
Customs Official : 'So you're telling me your name is Batman Superman?'
Passenger : 'Yes'
Customs Official : 'Arrest this guy...
When they had him in custody, he was asked to show his identification card:
And also possibly the best name ever...
(must be the moustache)

Re: And Something Funny...........
I have business cards from guys in Hong Kong who I used to deal with in the toy industry.
One's name was "I. O. Yoo", and the other's was "Jetson Wang". Nice guys who understood the humor.

I arrested an upstanding fella once who's name was Phelen Cheeks. Not the best out there but it sticks in my mind.

Way back when I was a kid, one of the guys on my paper route was named Harold Dick, and yes, he went by Harry...

We used to laugh over a customer's name at an old job. The customer in question: Mr. Harry Hole.
Maybe they know each other.

In 1986, I bought a house in Virginia from a guy named "H. Balls". He insisted that we call him "Aitch".
Of, course, when the paperwork came through, his name turned out to be "Harry".
And, what parents are brain-dead enough to name their kid, "Jack Abramoff"?

When I was in Basic Training in the Army, the guy after me had the last name of "White". Everytime roll was called, which was a few times a day, they would say "Snow", "White" and then chuckle for a second. Not to spread any bad will, but I sure was happy when he was sent home after 2 weeks.
After Basic, I went to my AIT school, and there was a guy there with the last name of "Dick". I really haven't felt so bad about my last name since.

We used to have a bank account at the Barclays Bank branch in Ramsbottom, Lancashire. His family probably came from there.atomic_punk wrote:There was a real estate developer a few years back that I worked with doing some architectural planning...

My music teacher at high school was Mike Hunt. And yes, he preferred being called Mike.
But even better than that was a fellow classmate - Russell Sprout. It still makes me laugh.

Speaking of odd/unfortunate last names, I remember my mother telling me about a family she knew that had the last name of "Outhouse". When, at my Grandfather's funeral, a man came up and introduced himself as "John Outhouse", it was really hard to keep from laughing...

I have a friend named Justin Case, as he was named after his maternal grandfather.
I also have a cousin whose initials are SOB.
