"Brilliant people names"

This can ONLY go in General Chat really, as it's a sheer time wasting exercise on my part. Job requires me to go through vast databases of peoples names and some great ones have been coming up. That, and I keep laughing every time I see a 'Mr. T'.

My faves so far...

Dr. Hrand Mamagonians
Rambo Zambonini
Mr P Barefoot
Mr C Mycock

Hur hur hur

Slightly off topic but I want to rant.

My name's just two syllables, Rumney - rum and then ney (nee) but it's amazing how many people, especially those who have known me for years, think it's Rumley, Rummy, Runny, Rumnley, Runnley, just about every variation.

Out of all the possiblities you'd think they'd get it right by accident once in a while.

And there's an area in Wales called Rumney (Stryke, I am your King) and one in America (so there's a Rumney fire department - again, I am your King)

Oh, and my job involves calling people up about their Tax Credits claims, which means I see ALL kinds of names. James Bond has popped up more than once, as has Michael Jackson. Mind you, with all the kids in his house he'd get a shedload of Child Tax Credit.

I came across a Mr Fimbofinch in the phone book once, that had me in stitches for hours.

There was a kid at my old school who's surname was Mycock. Nobody really had any decent material so someone would just walk up to him and start rubbing his shoulder:

"I'm rubbing Mycock"

...

I honestly met someone called Richard Head the other week.

Neil Down

Al Coholic

I graduated with a dentistry student called Wonwai Chuer

We had a Theresa Leaning and a Chris Massey at school. which always made me chuckle.

You would really change your surname if it was 'Mycock'.

My surname is great.
Like a Gladiator.

I once heard of a man called Pierce Mycock. Not even Piers; Pierce.

That last pyramid-selling guy had someone called Mr. A. Laldin on the list, which just rocks.

Reminds me of the Simpsons:

Bart: "A. Gorilla" *laughs*


simple but effective
