My brother and sister in law attended the wedding of the Turnipseeds last year. The dad is kind of a military bigwig. General Turnipseed. I kid you not.

When we lived in California, there was a bigshot preacher in the city called Rev. Royal Blue. Turned out he was part of a big family that also included Navy and Midnight. Dunno if there were others. I used to laugh every time I drove past the church sign. Hey, I'm easily amused: It keeps me young. :D

None of these names are as funny as Kunth34r, because Kunth34r is the the single funniest name ever. Thankfully it is not pronounced like it is spelled or else Kunth34r's many coworkers wouldn't get a bit of work done when she was around.

I have a friend with the already unfortunate last name of Kle1npeter. Her older brother is called James, nicknamed Jimmy. Ouch.
Also known a Brigh@m Y@ng, Taiwanese Mormon, and a Morgan Lefaye.

There were two girls in my high school graduating class with the first name Velvet. You can check this with Jack Cole. Only one of them graduated, though; the other got married halfway thru senior year and dropped out.

Aaah.. my neighbour's kid: @nakin @li. No points for guessing his sister's name. Kinda gross when you think about it.

I know an Apple, a Happy, a Milk, and a Tiger as well.

Oh and sisters $iti @fiuratul, $iti B@quiratul, and $iti $hawwana+ul all went to school with me.

My mother has a friend whose 4 boys are called 'Tarn', 'Argon', 'Sun' and 'Chewocky'. Possibly the last one is actually 'Cherokee', but I sure as hell heard the former.

I own a number of albums of a New Zealand musician, a pianist, called Wayne King

Everybody laughed as I sat down to play, then I realised I had left the door open...

There is a dude at work named B3nett L0ve. Also Trent Sk33l. Both sound like movie characters.

some I have run across in my travels:

Qing Chang (say it "Ching Chang") and I just immediately hear in my head "walla walla bing bang" everytime I hear it or see it written.
Lata Beer
Then there were the LA cops teamed up named "Ofcr Laws" and "Ofcr Justice"

not to be forgotten famous philanthropist, "Ima Hogg"
and a distant long dead relative named "Gay Hooker"

Went to school with Edward Whipple Jenks III and set of girl sisters with the last name Leer - 1st names: Crystal & Shanda (not funny unless they're written together

I work with a Professor Love. In fact, I'm going to India with him. While we're there, we'll be meeting a man called Malay Dave, who sounds like a character from Only Fools and Horses.

When I was at school, one of the teachers died and there was a memorial service for him. During the service, there was a point where the headmaster read out the names of all of the other pupils/former pupils/members of staff/governors etc etc etc who had died over last year or so. The list of names was printed in the booklet. The first name in the list was Amos Boner. If they hadn't printed the list in alphabetical order and hidden him further down the list, no-one would have noticed because they'd have stopped listening after three names, but starting off with that one just caused a wave of stifled giggling. RIP Amos.

My friend wants to name his first born Tyrano Stevie Ray Hendrix Laird Buckley.

I hold out no hope that this will come to fruition, as his girlfriend does not seem amenable to such a name.

Just walked past a church in Walthamstow which promises services from the Reverend Dalton Banjo.

I can't believe Brazilian footballer Creedence Clearwater Couto hasn't turned up on this page yet. Maybe I missed this star of the Belgian league.

is Kittiporn Methaprayoon courageous obstinate or simply ignorant to keep her name? (Who wants to be reminded of how crystal meth is plaguing our youth?)

In this little hick club there was a guy who played a weird instrument - but I can't recall what it was, a saw or some other type of non-instrument but I won't ever forget his name:

Ormley Gumfudget.

Me too!

I had forgotten about Chip Masterbone. Good old Chip Masterbone.

There's another thread here along similar lines, where I must have told about a friend of mine, Gr3tchen Silvertooth, whose brother is a dentist. His name alas, is also Chip.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 13 March 2006 03:54 (eighteen years ago) link

On that other thread I mentioned my fellow high school person Tud0r B0l0ni. I just googled him, and he's mentioned (ungoogleproofed) on two other websites with threads similar to this one. I can't imagine self-googling and finding that out.
