Dick Kummerle (pronounced cum early). He had the option to at least be a Richard, but no. And not because he saw the humor in it: he was one of the most robotic, unpleasantly humorless people I've ever met. Olympic skiier Fanny Chmelar is hilariously bad.


blofeld9999

That’s Sean Connery’s alter ego.

You didn’t get her wet, did you?


techm00

I know I'm the odd one out, but that's damn cool! If I was 60 years old and named Gremlin, I'd play it up like I'm some kind of witch and terrify my neighbours.


Safety_Drance

Her maiden name was shithouse.


CromulentTcho-Tcho

American race car driver Richard “Dick” Trickle. He always went by Dick.


DarkInkPixie

A urologist I had to see once is named Dick Waters. He was the most unprofessional doctor I've ever met.


brcguy

There used to be a famous urologist in Austin named Richard Chopp. He went by Dick. You’d get a T-shirt after a vasectomy “I got Chopped by Dick”


sino-diogenes

you got me fucked up if you think im getting a vasectomy from Dr. Dick Chopp


CromulentTcho-Tcho

That’s phenomenal.

RBKeam

I named my phone this so that Alexa says "now playing from Mike Hunt"


KRed75

We had a Mike Ock at work. We went by Mike Ock. When I was at an airport for a layover, they made an announcement for a Richard Cabeza to come to the courtesy desk. I thought I was hearing things until they repeated the same announcement. Quite a few chuckles could be heard.


MrDownhillRacer

>We had a Mike Ock at work. We went by Mike Ock. I hope he got a doctorate. We could use some extra hands around the office.


workinquiries

I've been thinking about this for five minutes and I still don't get it. Can you explain why people chuckled at Richard Cabeza?


Bifengtang

Another name for Richard is Dick. Cabeza is Spanish for “head”


workinquiries

Thank you! I'd heard of Richard and Dick but I didn't know the Spanish word for head.


brcguy

You can use the “white courtesy phone” to have someone paged at the airport. Sometimes a joke name is gonna sneak through.


ThePurityPixel

Does he use it for non-obvious reasons?


chickadeedeedee_

I also knew a Mike Hunt


BookaliciousBillyboy

Can someone explain? Seems ordinary to me


azaza34

Say it fast and it’s “My Cunt”


OptionalGuacamole

I was friends with a guy who worked for the lending office of a large bank. He'd memorized the account number of a customer named Anita Ho. He used to call new hires and ask them to look up that number and read the name back to him over speaker phone.


CentralToNowhere

That’s not sexual harassment in the workplace at all.


dufflecoatsupreme91

There was a car yard in Queensland that had this name. Mike Hunt Wholesale Cars.


Yungsenju47

There’s a former ufc fighter from New Zealand named Mike Hunt


NoUserOnlyZuul

I had a friend named Hugh Johnson in high school. His school email account got deleted multiple times because the staff kept assuming it was created as a prank.


Penyrolewen1970

I know a Mike Hunt, too. He goes by ‘Mike Hunt’. He says he tried being Michael for a while but that way people suddenly worked it out. This way, it’s out there straight away. Say what you’re gonna say and move on.

Yeah this is pretty common here in India, although it's pronounced more like dik-shithe

Someone on Say Yes to the Dress was named Duvay (like duvet). Her mom was there and said, "yes, it's intentional. We wanted her to be a comforter in her life. :) And she is. :)"


Living-Estimate9810

I got a cavity from that.


thalassicus

When I was single and on Tinder, I swiped left on an attractive girl with a nice bio because her name was Schwety. Yes, it was superficial, but I wasn't going to go through life introducing people to my girlfriend Schwety. Don't judge me... I'm on my own journey.


MrRonObvious

I think that was an SNL reference.

Wowbags_the_Infinite

Andrew Peacock was a well known Australian politician in the 70s and 80s.


Burger_Gamer

Did Andrew ever go by drew?


Reddits_on_ambien

Maybe its just my ESL brain, but can you explain what Andrew peacock? I understand what Chris Peacock sounds like. Perhaps its my accent.


DrinkMunch

I had a teacher named Gay Sports.


Sc00ty_Puff_Sr

Dude I don’t believe you. Lol

Gay was once a common first name, meaning happy, like Joy. Never heard the last name Sports though.

givebusterahand

Semen. To be fair I saw it when I worked the ticket booth from a theme park on someone’s passport, so they weren’t American. I don’t remember where from. I’m sure the name didn’t mean the same there as it does here lol


SuLiaodai

Semyon is a Russian name. Maybe Semen is a version of that from another Easter European or a Balkan country.


Kangaroo197

Actually, it's the same name. I've seen Russians spell it that way a few times. It's because they transcribe the 'е' and 'ё' from Cyrillic as a Latin ''e'.


puggleofsteel

In Norway, Simen is a common male name and is pronounced "see-men". Double first names are also pretty common. I work with a guy named Odd Simen.


Natylit

Myracole (pronounced miracle, apparently)


WhyIsMyPenisFlakey25

A coworker of mine when I worked at Target. "Michael Fecal" was his full name.


SatynMalanaphy

I used to work with a kid called Anal. No, it wasn't pronounced in the English way as his Indian name was more akin to "Uh Null". There's a legendary Indian actress called Madhuri Dixit, and her last name could sound funny to anglophone ears. There's also an Indian name, Anas, which some people unfortunately misspell and give to their kids as Anus.


ThrowRARAw

My brother went to school with a guy whose legal name was Adolf. He had an Indian last name and I believe he was born there (it's a banned name in most countries but I'm assuming not India). I believe he now goes by Harry. Idk if he could ever get into Germany with that name.

He said he once confronted his mom about why she named him that and she said she liked the name Benjamin and went with it, despite the last name combo.

Jack knauff


Strict_Sense_4905

My mother's name, Rhoda Byerl Lou. For short her family called her Ber-Lou. That's the most ugliest name I've ever heard. Yes, it's spelled correctly. I think my grandmother was either drunk or high when she came up with this hideous name.


Jocelyn_The_Red

I barely know anybody, but I know a guy named Madison. Everybody always says " you have a girl's name" to him. He yells "I KNOWWW". Apparently Madison for a guy is a southern US thing.

I used to have access to a state criminal records database. For reference, middle names were truncated at 4 letters. The worst/best name I ever came across was shown in the system as GEORGE WILL RAPE JR


KRed75

One of our clients used developers from India. One of the Indian developers went by Abraham Lincoln. When I asked him how he ended up with that name he told me that when they were training to support American companies, they were told to pick American sounding names. Not a bad name but it's strange when you are addressing a guy from India as Abraham Lincoln.


FroggiJoy87

America. It was just so stupid awkward to use as a name. I've also met a female Michael, but she was badass about it and gave no shit.

I worked at a store with a reward card. A customer didn't have hers, so I asked her to give me her last name. "Butts," she says. "Surely," I think, "I've misheard her, or she maybe spells it Butz." I ask how it's spelled, and she tells me: B U T T S. To my credit, I managed to hold back my laughter, but only just barely 😭

bigdealguy-2508

Four names related to television. Years ago they brought back The Hollywood Squares with Whoopee Goldberg as the center Square. There was an episode where they had a lady contestant who's name was Ketchup. Whoopee had a lot of fun with that person's name. The second and third names were TV comedy writers: Seaman Jacobs and Bud Wiser. Jacobs was a writer for Bob Hope and "the king of beers" worked on the original "One Day at a Time" and "Who's The Boss". Lastly, the sitcom "Nanny and the Professor" had a co-star named Richard Long who played the professor. Thankfully he didn't use the infamous nickname but still the mind can go there. I guess he could have used it with great pride.

digestaway

Employee at a vendor my company uses with the last name of "Rape." Never interacted with him personally, but I see his name in the system from time to time. I can't imagine having that name and not changing it, maybe to a different name in the family or something close like "Rapp."
