I have just come across someone who proudly bears the name of Buckmaster de Wolf. It is the awesomest name I have ever heard! Does anyone have any similar awesome names?

I was at a work do with Randy Wiggle from Milwaukee. He went round the room, introducing himself to everyone like that: Hi! I'm Randy Wiggle from Milwaukee. Hi! I'm Randy Wiggle from Milwaukee. Hi! I'm Randy Wiggle from Milwaukee. (Everyone else just used first names - Helen, Dave, Caroline.

He said that by repeating it over and over, it made it less funny for everyone.
Randy Wiggle was wrong on that.
