    Has anybody worked with interestingly named people? Over the years, I have had the pleasure of working with a guy called Thomas and his wife Geraldine (Tom & Jerry) and some one called Warren Pierce (Sounds like 'War & Peace'). What about you guys?

      I had a teacher (Mr. Case) in HS who named his son Justin Case. I knew a girl who married and had a daughter she named April May Summers.

        When I was a child, I had a friend called Valdisnei (pronouced in portuguese like Val-dees-nay). His dad didn't know how to write Walt Disney. Sad but true... Concussus surgo. When struck I rise.

                        I heard of a Chinese lady who had the hardest time getting her co-workers to pronounce her name properly, so eventual she just asked every one to refer to her by her initials, and her last name: Q. D. Ho Ryan Johnston

                                  I've met a few. Family where I once lived where the Trees. Aptly they named their kids: Douglas Fir Tree Mary Christmas Tree and Paul M. Tree Also, my friend's dad dated a girl in high school named Sandy Butts. Everyone called her "Gravel Ass". Then my senior year of high school a new hippie family moved to town. Their kids: Sunshine Greenleaf RunningBrook the kids used their middle names instead as they were more normal. -- Ain't no lie.
