Ok this is based around if you work in the public sector and hear surnames often but can also be if you know anybody with a cool name!

For example I think the actor Rip Torn had parents who thought they were hilarious  ;)

So far we have had a competition in work to see if we can find the best Surnames, some are a little bit on the rude side so I wont post them but my favourite so far has been;

Mr A. Cake  :suffer:

I like my last name--Dundas. :yes: It's not like my parents named me "Ialready," but it's still fun.  That's what everyone at work calls me.

This is Nifty, Royal Heir.

I'm like, an adult now or something? Sounds fake, but okay.

No, just kidding.  ;D His first name is Henry. But Pasta would be... well, it would just be weird.

A friend of mine while doing a temp job of stuffing envelopes to people who owed money for a camp their kids had gone to still noticed that one family had sent two children there.

Dangit, I can't remember the second name at the moment, but one of them was named Messiah. No joke. And the other one was just as strange.

Jesus?

Every interpretation I lend to Haids post here makes me laugh, ie- both the tone of "helpful addition" and the tone of child-like bafflement at encountering someone named "Messiah".

Okay, in the best names category, a girl in my last Calc1 recitation was named Griffin Hunt. On occasion, I stopped myself from asking if she had a brother named Dragon or Drake. :P
