A Vodafone door to door salesman was doing the rounds on our road earlier with the latest offers that aren't available online apparently... anyway he left his business card and when I saw his name I had to LOL as it was Robin Crowe! His family must love bird names Grin

My friend had a child in her group named Horshitt, not sure about the spelling but you get the gist.

Mr Kaunt. Very unfortunate and I had to be very careful with my pronunciation whenever I spoke to him!

@Yogsgirl, Nathan Jones anecdote so funny. Reminded me that I did have a lot of fun teaching! @Winederlust, I taught a little boy once called Blessing. His sister was Precious and his brother Prosperity. He was telling me his mum had had a baby at weekend. Name - John. Imagine how left out you'd feel!

I knew a Dick Horn and a Rod Cox at the same time.

I used to work with somebody called Mike Hunt and would always be in hysterics when my boss would shout across the office to get Mike Hunt on the phone.

We had a sales rep call in one day. His name was Ray Pugh. Most unfortunate!

I saw something on facebook about a reporter who was reporting on petrol shortage/ panic buying called Philip McCann.
