A guy at work is called William Hung but he quite correctly shortens it to Will.

Seriously dude.

We have a board on the office which we used for bookings on our boats, this has since been replaced by a big whiteboard, but in the last year we ran boats we had people on successive weeks called Rolph and then Harris, and on another boat Ball, and Pitt.

That is fantastic and completely unexpected. Are they taking the piss perhaps?

Used to sell wines to a company called Funtex A/S

When I asked them how come. they said Funny Textiles (Kiddie clothing design & Import)
I then told them about "funtex" - they have since changed their name.

I wish that was a true story

I once found myself on the phone to a lady whose surname was Cockshaft. I did a double-take, which I'm sure contributed to my never getting work from that company...

heh awesome... I was just thinking how you could possibly mitigate such a surname and it just can't be done :(

"Hi this is Jeremy Cockshaft, I'm calling about the 2000psi bilge pump?" -----No.
"May I present Lady Madelaine Cockshaft Monger-Pronger, Baroness Highgate" -----Also no.
"Presenting this year's Nobel prize winner for Theoretical Faffing...Alexander Cockshaft!" ----Very much no.

It can't be done :-(

I used to have 2 customers (not stupid names but) called Chris Evans and Phil Collins, but instead of just saying 'hi its Mr Evans/Collins' they had to give their full name everytime, in a really smug way too, just so we would say 'Oh that's funny, you're called...blaa blaa'

They were twats

My main supplier has a customer called Mike Hunt, true

ok, I had, I honestly had, a customer when I was debt collecting called Mr Black Chawawa. And that is a fact.

No one called Dr Cockshaft will be coming anywhere near me. Unless it's Saturday.

I went to school with a Mike Hunt. He insisted on being called Michael. I have no idea why.
