Also worked at a foreign company which had an endless supply of comedy names. Amongst them Aad Kok, Dick Smaal and the amazing Fanny LeGache who sounds like an Austin Powers character.
When I worked in an Insurance office as a youngster there was a joint policy held by a Mr. Mycock and Mr. Hiscock. A copy of it was pinned up on the notice board.
I worked with a bloke called Mike Hunt and it never stuck me as funny until the name was used in the film Porkies (as in "has any body seen Mike Hunt? Is Mike Hunt there...." etc)
I also worked with a chap called Richard Ade, he was always referred to as Dick Ade
American tv producer or director Brian Wankum. always made me laugh at the end of an episode of 'V' being the first name up. Surely you'd change it, if it were you..
That is truely wierd as there is a guy who works in our US headquarters called Randy Beavers. The US is always good for strange names often looking like somebody has thrown scrabble squares in the air and then making a name out of it.
one of my lecturers at college was Nathan Clutterbuck My friend had a Kiwi relation called Dimfimademus Tittlemouse (not sure if that's the right spelling) I knew a Chick Pratt (another American) and lastly Alan Allen I mean didn't the parents have any imagination
