Terrible Last Names

[angelicminx]

My sister married a man who's last name is Glasscock. His uncle's first name is Green. So, yep, his name is Green Glasscock.

And last night, we went to a high school graduation and some poor young lady's name was Tiffany Teats. (I did manage to keep the snickers to a minimum.)

I thought my parents hated me for giving me the middle name Minx--I had no idea.

I don't have anything to add at the moment, I just had to post! To have a Saucyminx and an Angelicminx in the same thread was temptation I couldn't pass up, lol.

LOL! I have been waiting to bump into you in a thread. Minx must stick together.

I apologize to anyone with these last names, in advance, but I would hate to have the last name:

Snodgrass
Boyle
Biatch
Krapp
Gripe
Gross
Cox
Harshbarger
Fugit (I'm sure it gets mispronounced all the time)
Kuntz (Once again, always mispronounced)
Deathe
Jolly
Beggs
Creamer
Corns
Shank
Skaggs
or
Woodring (heh, heh)

There's someone in my town named Felcher. Honestly there is. I can't really explain to my coworkers why I both wince and snicker when I run into the name.

Absolutely!

I once went out with a Sandi Beach... I actually made her show me her ID when she introduced herself.

I worked with a guy named Casebeer and another named Haffabeir. We used to party a lot together.

I've also known a cop named Bacon, another named Pigg, a dentist named Semin, a doctor named Cutz, a realtor named Holmes, and a bartender named Glass. In addition there were others I have met including a Dusty Rhoades, a Patty Bunns, a Mary Intuit, a Billy Dancer (dont ask him to dance), a Dick Winkel, a Dick Dyer, a Sang Olson (whose name I first heard over the intercom as Bang Olafsun), and finally but certainly not least, Peter Donelinger (Jokingly pronounced Peter Dingalinger).

It wasn't that his first name was Rembert.

Or that his last name was McGruder.

It was that he was, in fact, Rembert McGruder... THE THIRD.

In the town where I grew up we had:
Dr. Hackim
Dr. Hatchett
Dr. Hackett

My family went to Dr. Repaire


As a teacher I run across interesting names all the time.

April May June

Ibesilent
Ibeinnocent
Iknowitall
There were four other children in the family with similar names that I can't recall at the moment. one had listen in the name but I forget if he could or couldn't

Assorted versions of Precious, Queen, Princess

A boy who's legal first name was Junior

One whose father insisted his son, whose name was not exactly the same as the fathers was not just a junior but he was a junior the third.

Typos by clerks typing birth certificates can make for interesting names.

Kristiann was a boy who was supposed to be Kristian
Qunicy was supposed to be Quincy
Maria who was supposed to be Marian


There are different pronunciations:

Lemon with the o pronounced like boat, accent on the second syllable.
Orange O ron j sibling to Lemon accent on the second syllable

A teacher I worked with started her career in the middle school, she quickly went from Buchrucker (Buckrucker) to Ms. B.

One family named all four boys, there were no girls, the same first name, then called the boys by their first and middle initials.

I always felt bad for movie star kids, they get some really strange names stuck on them.

and of course initials make up some interesting names.. in my family we had CAR, MAY, DAY, and my favorite, my brother's were MR.

I once had a friend named..Richard Dick, which is Dick Dick? What were his folks thinking?
i know a dentist named Drill and a doctor named Pain.

Even if you call him Rick Dick it doesn't sound any better. Dickie, Ricky, Ritchie? Even Mr. doesn't work well. poor guy.

And Chard is just too funny.

One of my instructors in Photo school in the Navy was P.O. Richard Dick. And he was.

Most unbelievable one I know is fairly famous. There was a NASCAR driver named Dick Trickle.

I never understood why he never changed his name. I kept waiting to hear the commentators during a race spout off, "Looks like that #37 car is leaking some fluid." "Of course he is, Darrell, that's Dick Trickle."

How about R. U. A. Dick? -- I am!

(then again he could always brag about having a lot of dick, right?)

leads me to wonder what his middle name/s really is/are. You never know.

I went to school with Robin Hood. One of the music teachers at a nearby college was Allan Horney. There's a local potter whose last name is Heyduck, pronounced Hi Duke. I saw a wedding announcement where the father's name was James, the groom's name was James, Jr.,and his sister's name was Jamie. I found my favorite name in the phone book. Amerigo Vagino (I can't remember if that's last name first anymore, but it really doesn't matter, does it?)

Swear to God, I'm not making this up:

In a small town I used to live in, the town cop was named: Alphonso Pecher. Interestingly and for no apparant reason, the name was pronounced "Pecker". This is true: Alphonso's sister was named Oephelia.

I kid you not.

I knew a guy once whose name was Peter Dick.

 

[Lilin Penn]

My sister when to school with a set of twins named Candy & Nova...their last name was Caine.

I know in the phone book there was a Park Hedges & a Harry Vagilanus. That was over 15 years ago though.

My current favorite was my friend wanting to name her son Harrison Peter. It was her brother who pointed out when you shortened his name he'd be "Harry Peter".

I went to Madison High with a girl whose last name was (I kid you not) Lardaste. During our sophomore year Madison and Penn High Schools got merged in a cost-cutting move. Thereafter, the cheerleaders, including poor Elaine Lardaste, hopped around the football fields wearing sweaters that read, "P-M S"

Mayber Her uncle was the cop in Cheech and Chong's Up In Smoke, Sgt Lardass (actually Sgt Stenko, but on the radio, Cheech called him Sgt Lardass)

 

[CopyCarver]

Bullet,

I remember the movie, but Elaine was around years before anyone heard of Cheech & Chong. She's be an old chick by now. I, on the other hand, haven't aged a day.

My husband has been a writer and English Literature professor for nearly forty years now. A long time ago, he wrote a story -just something a little goofy about guys- and he had three characters in it named Dirk Squarejaw, Studdly Hungwell, and Biff Goodbody.

That reminds me of a bunch of fifth grade jokes we told each other back in the day (and I mean set the wayback machine for long, long ago).

Book titles:
Fifty Yards from the Outhouse by Willie Makit
Illustrated by Betty Dont

Terror on the Cliffs by Eileen Dover

You get the drift. For fifth graders they were funny.

I went to school with a girl who had the last name Hickey, she was older than me. We used to listen to the older girls talk, she said that she could hardly wait untill she got married because people teased her about her last name Hickey. Who did she marry?

JOE ROACH.

I would have stayed with Hickey!

I would'nt want the last name Cowely.

Very interesting thread

My dentist while I was growing up was Dr. Moeller.

Creepy old dentist, but a nice guy.

Any truth to the rumor that Johnny Bench named his daughter Parke?
