I mean not cruelly, or perhaps to their face, that would be rude...
I have on any number of occasions.
Annette Curtain was one, and Teresa Green, how could parents not realise what misery it might cause. I like ones that fit the persons job.
One of my favourites has to be Austin Healey the rugby player,
any you would like to share,
I used to work with a man and his surname was Doctor. That wasn't the problem though: his father WAS a Doctor and he was Doctor Doctor. I hope he's not reading this.
Many years ago, on tv, there was a priest and his surname was Christmas so he was Father Christmas.
Also many years ago, I used to work with a man named Ian Paul Upward so his initials were I.P Upward....
Mary Hale. I read once of a man who had to change his surname by deed poll before his girlfriend would marry him. It was Hogsflesh. Can't say I blame her.
Starbuck, my cyber mam, I had a mate called Ken Hoare who changed his name because of the pronunciation - he changed it to Ken Slack (Slack being a slang term for a *** where we lived)
Certainly is, bobbi. Must have put her off quite a lot. Imagine going out with a bloke and then finding out what his name was too late. I would have thought he was joking.
I thought you were going away for a while. Have you taken your laptop with you?
I know of a Joan Haw, she alway got Jenny at school?
I suppose it was a narrative of Hee-Haw and a donkey was a Jenny
educational or what? for young kids..lol
There's a woman on the BBC and her name is Julia Caesar. I also used to know someone called Wilde Rose which parents thought was a lovely name. She later married a man called BULL and became Wilde Bull.
I visited a doctor once called Doctor Croker, and believe me took all my effort not to laugh out loud. I did ask him if people made comments, which he wryly said they did.
Morning welshy. Hope you are going to be a good boy today. I don't want to have to stand you in the cyber corner again, or put you on the naughty step. (from your cyber mam)
Starbuck, I will be a good lad all day and do my work diligently. We had a brickie wotking for us in the Ipswich are whos name was Phil Ness - never forgot him in payroll where initials and not forenames are used on payslips!!!!
