"Funny Names"
LAST EDITED ON 09-20-01 AT 08:10 PM (EST)

We need more inane, irreverent thresds to perk all of us up and get us back into the right frame of mind again. The last few days have been real tough on all of us and it's time to start moving on and bring some humour back while still keeping our thoughts on the serious happenings in the world.

One of the things that my wife and I love to do is to mock people's names that we see on the street or on TV, etc.

We're getting a particularly good laugh on teachers names this year -- the daughter of a good friend of ours has two Senior Kindergarten teachers and their names... no I'm not making this up... are Mrs. Horlick and Mrs. Dick. They really should count themselves lucky they don't teach in junior high or high school.

We also get a good laugh out of our son's Sr. Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Valoppi, which, naturally, we turn into "Mrs. Vallopian Tubes."

Got any interesting names to share?

I had a doctor named Dr Hymen. I am so not kidding. Would have been better if his first name was Richard. Dicque Hymen.

I also had a friend in college that ALWAYS went by the name Buster. He would never tell us his name. We got him drunk one night which wasn't hard, and he confessed that his parents named him Harold Richard. Harry Dicque

5. "Funny name joke "
It was the first day of fourth grade, and the kids had a new teacher. It was "Dirty Ernie"'s class. (does everyone know the Dirty Ernie - "Rats..." joke? - if not, let's just say that Ernie is the kid with the potty mouth).

Anyway, the teacher introduces herself. "Class, my name is Mrs. Prussy. I'll write in on the board, P-R-U-S-S-Y. It's really very easy to remember, it's just like pussy but with an 'r' in it."

So the next morning, the teacher stands up in front of the class. "Alright, children, who remembers my name?"

Dirty Ernie raises his hand. "I do: it's Mrs. Crunt!"

LOL at this story Dangerkitty. It reminded me of an old English teacher of mine from when I was about 12. Miss Crowther looked like she couldn't be too far off retirement and she used to call this class of girls pussies! If we had her for the last class of the day she wanted to be sure we were wearing our gloves (obviously this is not a recent event) for the journey home . "Come on pussies!" she would say. "Put up your paws!"

There was a woman who worked for a company that we did business with whose name was Chocolate Lemon. This was her real, given name.

There was a client whose legal first name was Baby Girl, because when she was born, her father had only wanted a boy and he refused to name her or sign the birth certificate, something like that.

There was an appraiser whose name was Dick Krumweed. I always figured that was a good way to describe a bad date. "Ewww, I went out with a real Dick Krumweed last night!"

All these are from way back in my days of mortgage banking. I could go on and on with some of the borrowers names. Like the couple with the last name Piggee who owned a hot dog stand. Or the Vietnamese extended family members who were buying a home together; their loan file was labeled Dang/Dang/Dang. Another borrower was named Hung Man.

10. "A shout out to Texans..."
Just wondering... is it true that there once was a governor of Texas with the surname Hogg? I've heard the old story that he supposedly had daughters named Ima and Yura.

If that's true... no wonder Texas has the death penalty.

Pepe, your post reminded me of this informative story. It's true! I swear!!!

How many times has someone said to you; "You don't know Jack Schitt?" Though this accusation is often made, you will now know his entire story..

Jack Schitt is the only son of O. Schitt and Awe Schitt. O. Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married Awe Schitt, who later ran the Kneedeep Inn-Schitt. Jack Schitt eventually married Noe Schitt, and together they produced six children. Holy Schitt, their first child, passed on shortly after birth. Next came twin sons, Deep Schitt and Dip Schitt and then two daughters, Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt. Their last child, another son, was named Bull Schitt. In the meantime, Deep Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school dropout. Dip Schitt married Lotta Schitt and they have a son, Chicken Schitt. Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt married the Happens Brothers. The Schitt-Happens children are Dawg Schitt, Bird Schitt and Horace Schitt. Bull Schitt just married a spicy number, Pisa Schitt and they are expecting the arrival of Baby Schitt. But, this one side of the family still carries a mystery! It's the side of Ol' Granny Schitt. Her FULL NAME: "Baga Schitt." Married a fella who died just two days later - from some kinda' breathing problem. So, now you know Jack Schitt and his entire family, when someone asks.

In junior high, I knew a girl named Sally Fuch which she pronounced Foo-ch. That wasn't the way everyone else did, of course.

As far as I know, Sally never did Fuch.

Is it just me or is this real weird to you? I've never understood why parents would name their child the same as their last name -- I have a friend by the name of Daniel (aka Danny) Daniels and a fellow cottager by the name of Robert (Robbie) Roberts. What, were their parents a little slow that they decided to double-name their kids to make sure they KNOW what the family name is?

Oh, I know a BUNCH of these!!!

My Mom's doctor is named Dr. Slaughteroff!

My brother went to high school with a kid named Benjamin Franklin!

My first job in NY, in 1989, I was a receptionist/secretary at an architecture firm. One of the guys was Asian and his name was Yu Hwa Hung - the "Hwa" pronounced "ah". So you'd say his full name all together and it sounded like "You Aaah (are) Hung"! And to make matters worse, because of however his name originated in his country, he went by "Hung", not "Yu Hwa"! Now, the partners of the firm wanted me to page people by their full names - "John Smith, please call reception, John Smith, please call reception", etc. I made an exception with this guy - I flat out asked them, "PLEEEASE, don't make me page Hung by his full name!" The one partner thought it out for a second and when it dawned on him, went "Ohhhhhh!!!! Well, yes, of course, you don't have to page Hung by his full name!" But I still had to page him by "Hung!" I would try so hard not to laugh when I did it! Well this one guy I was buddies with, John, was the practical joker of the company. One day he was nearby when I had to announce on the loudspeaker, "Hung, come to reception please - Hung, come to reception!" Well, John comes racing across the lobby and flings himself at my desk and goes, "How many times have I told you, never page me by my nickname!!!!" That was it, I was a goner - I must have sat there for a good ten minutes, laughing till I cried! It was tough enough to page this guy, but after that, I could barely page him without cracking up!!!

Ahhhh. . . Pépé, single-handedly riding herd over the OT to make it a kinder, gentler forum. . . *pours him a large iced tea with a sprig of peppermint* (<Why? I dunno--just seemed the right thing for such a hard-working skunk. . .)

Can't think of any modified names off the top of my head, but I went to school with a girl named Debby Pitts--and her dad (I think he was even superintendent of schools) was named Harold. . . and for some unfathomable reason, he actually went by the usual nickname, HARRY. (Must I spell it out for you? Harry PITTS?) Always felt sad for that girl, although his position at work and the country club seemed to counteract the name's effect on adults. . .

Not an especially clever "name" story, but at that same time, we had a local car dealer named Jim Holdiman--and (we think because of nerves or some affliction that made it impossible to hold still) he performed all his commercials with his hands wedged firmly in his armpits (oooh! a theme!) Just a weasely little bald guy with hornrims, holding on for dear life and racing through his spiel in a rapid monotone.

Mkay--so Jim Holdiman was a stretch. . . but you've got to admit Harry Pitts was on a par with those oldies but goodies from Ripley's like "Ima June Bugg!"

Hard working? Nahh... humour isn't really work at all, but why, thank you for the iced tea (is it a long island version? ) As for the other stuff... I've resorted to putting fingers into my ears and singing LA LA LA LA LA LA LA.
