What is the most unusual surname you have heard.

[Noidea2114]

I'll start.
I went to school with someone called Crumplehome.

Cheewinsukamphai

It was the surname of the first person I booked when I was a travel agent over 30 years ago

I had fun spelling that out in the phonetic alphabet to BA reservations....

Runnicles

Bagilhole

I’m loving Mr Brownjobs too!

I onece saw an online picture of a gravestone bearing the name of 'Turleigh Curd' - unusual first and surnames as well as a hilarious spoonerism - it looked real, but it might have been mocked up.

Also, we’re used to it now, but I still snigger when I see headlines about the US President – things such as ‘Trump blasts at journalists’ and ‘Trump divides the house’

There's a London surgeon called Bellringer - a urologist.

Would be even funnier still if there was an extra ‘w’ in the middle – specialist in helping gentlemen with tube blockage issues

Laycock

Bacon

There are lots of Savages in Ireland.(I'm Irish)

At my old job I sent a survey out to a Mr Dick Seamen, I couldn’t believe it so I googled him and he was legit!

I’ve also heard of a Mr Foreskin before

Sunshine
And Bottom.
Always though that whilst Sunshine is a lovely name, you'd feel so much pressure to be happy all the bloody time!

Winkel.
Only made worse by the fact his first name is Bent.
Mr Bent Winkel.
Both totally normal names in the Netherlands.

I know a Crapp family

Also worked with a Sidebottom.

Yes I did laugh. He was very good about it. He also laughed at my name (not sharing) so we were even.

Phizackerley is one of my favourite unusual names - it sounds like it should belong to a magician.

I know a Glasscock!

Ploof
Wibberley

At school I had teachers called Toogood and Goodenough, which always amused me!

Backholer
Jubber
Cock

Oh and Dikshit

I once taught a group of students that included a Willey and a Wanklin. I secretly hoped they'd get married and double-barrel their names!

I have a friend whose surname is Crump, and DS's friend is a Gathergood, which I love.

Drinkwater

@WhatWouldYouDoWhatWouldJesusDo

Toss up between Woodcock and hornyblow 🤔

I also used to know an 'Annette Curtan' which always made me snigger.

Oh and the pig family.

It's Pigg - I know this, it was my maiden name. I loved it, it was unusual and it sorted out the idiots from the normal people. Yes, "Oh, you don't look like a pig" twat, I'm thinking of you.

Working for the NHS many, many years ago I encountered Fanny Tart.

Hoare, pronounced whore. She changed her name after the dirty phone calls.

Cockburn
Garlick
Higginbottom

I didn't know them but a friend once knew a Rosie Bottom!

Seiditta (Italian, excuse my spelling) and Seisdedos (Spanish), both mean 'six fingers'. I taught a Spanish Monica Sixfingers.

There are many people here with the surname Matamoros: moor-killer

In the UK:
Overy
Deathridge (Grace, she rocked her surname!)
Gooley (Dick Gooley, from USA)
Lovering (pronounced lover- ing, not love-ring, my GCSE physics teacher)
Hoare (just hideous)
Beer
Busby (we lived through the BT yellow bird years!)

Goodwillie
And Constable not unusual but he was a police man so Constable Constable, then Sergeant Constable

There used to be a family called Sex in my village, but it died out when the new wife made her husband change his surname to hers on marriage.

I used to work in a call centre and came across:

Crapper
Trumper
Raper
Hoare

Crump
Snowball
Drinkwater
