ah yes... i helped a matt 'buttf' the other day. he was sure that i'd helped him before; i've only been working in tech support for ~ 2 months, so i knew i would have remembered his name if i had spoken with him before... so i said "no, i don't think so; i don't recognize your name"... come to find out it was entered wrong on one form, and was/is actually 'butts'... he was like, "yeah, you would definitely remember my last name". poor guy, growing up with a name like that *L*. good attitude about it, though; he even named his network "butts".

I think I'd make that mistake once. Not because it's funny, but because that's how I'd pronounce that particular combination of letters. I learned music during my native language aquisition period, and as such, ti always sounds like Tee when I pronounce it.

I have one that will just slay the mind....

In my company, one of the platforms shows the person's name as lastname, firstname.

So, no word of a lie, there is a guy in the system with this as his name:

Harder, Dick.

I shit you not.

The BEST was a kid I went to high school with. I heard this every morning:

"Would Flash Flood come to the attendence office. Flash Flood to the attendence office."

You're kidding me... Flash Flood? Wtf?

There was a kid in my high school called Florian Honeyball. Poor sod. We also had the obligatory Neil Down, Richard Head and my favourite, Sriraj Govintharaja. The latter isn't funny at all, I just thought it was a really cool name.

I shit you not. Flash Flood was his name.

His sister's name? .... c'mon... you know this is coming....

Spring Flood.

And no, I'm *not* kidding. I would never kid about something like that. What parents would name their kids "Flash" and "Spring" with a last name of Flood need to be shot. I mean, you're asking for your kids to be crackheads or something like that from all the razzing they'll get. Geezzzzzz.

"Why'd you call me Flash, dad?"
"Because we couldn't think of a suitable euphemism for adolescent urinary dysfunction"

A friend of mine is named "Jason Cox". This obviously wasn't him, as he would've went along with that spelling. ;-)

We've got one guy who's surname is Cock. Wasn't fun when the filtering software got tightened and he couldn't put his surname in his sig anymore :P

I recently moved to Connecticut and cracked up when I first heard what street my grocery store was on - Dickswell. Eventually I found out it was actually spelled Dixwell.

You know, I would have blanked and wanted to spell it that way... but I would have caved and simply asked "Could you spell that for me please sir?"

Then we both know I can only think to spell it the wrong way, but at least it's not out there out loud.

Back at highschool, I had a classmate named 'Grocock'. Better yet, in our senior year, she became the the head girl*. That was the year even teachers couldn't say it without smirking.

* for anyone who went through a different school system, that means she was the senior prefect. Prefects are like a teachers' secret police force, made up entirely of students.

Oh, that reminds me again of high school.....

The vice-principal of my high school had the last name of Woodcock. And yes, she got the moniker of "lumberdick" behind her back. Didn't help that she was a little prissy, either.

We used to live down the road from the corner of Gott and Hiscock....

We really wanted to buy the house on that corner...

Heh, the only thing I have to contribute to this is that I used to live in a city with a street called Hardick.
