Felt bad for this guy b/c of his name. Do you know any like this?

[TheNinja]

So I'm at the doctor today and this dude comes in and says something about adding to his payment....the receptionist says "And your name?"

The dude says "Weiner.....Jeffrey". Yes, it was pronouced "Weener" . First of all....dang, poor dude. Secondly 30 Rock has that HR guy named Jeffrey Weinerslav...doublely bad for those of us who watch the show.

I also know a dentist named "Jeffrey Dahm" - pronounced "Jeffrey Dom". I'm sure he was thrilled with Jeffrey Dahmer started killing people.

I got so fed up I started pronouncing my name, "Bay-ner."

 

[rudeguy]

I work in a call center so I hear all kinds of weird ones. They aren't even special anymore.

 

[Gooberlx2]

Meh. A lot of people have some kind of name you can make a crude rhyme with. If people haven't gotten over that by middle school, then they're retards.

 

[HAL9000]

For every Jeffery Weener, there's a Staff Sergeant Max Fightmaster

I have a running bet with anyone that I meet that they can't come up with a variation of my last name I hadn't heard by 7th grade.

I know it isn't hilarious anymore, but seriously, when a guy says his name is Weiner, you have to do a double take.

I also knew a family who over time changed their pronunciation from "Cock" to "Coke" - it's spelled Kok.

Why?

It was someone's name before it was a dong.

 

[Hayabusa Rider]

Shithead pronounced "Shi-thead"

Yeah I understand. When the name is either a homonym or homophone to something ridiculous, it can make you do a double take.

I guess I could say I would feel sorry for his 9-year-old self.

Weiner, pronounced "weener", is not that uncommon of a name (especially in the Jewish community).

Is this the first time you've heard it? Where do you live?

Danielle Cumalot
Richard Buttafock

And, of course, the politician in Turkey: Ufuk Uras

 

[lord_emperor]

Isn't this where wieners got their name?

How unfortunate would it be if the first guy to squeeze meat into a thin casing of intestine was named Smith?

"I'll go pick up a 12-pack of Smiths and an 8-pack of Smith buns."

 

[Printer Bandit]

i know an indian guy named Trushit.

 

[FS]

[SMOGZINN]

Pronounced just how you would think.

[Leros]

I used to have a neighbor named Dick Harry.

One of the places I worked at had usernames of <first letter of first name>+<lastname>. So if your name was John Smith, your username was jsmith.

My officemate's last name was Artman. His first name started with an 'f'. He had the glorious username of "fartman"

 

[Imp]

I know quite a few Mr./Ms. Poon and Mr./Ms. Wang.

guy that built our house had the last name of blob...pronounced bloooob

The first time I met him he said his full name...and there was about a 1 second pause...where he says...Yah...it looks like 'blob' but is is pronounced like 'blooob'...I of course get that stupid face and don't know what to say...looking for some sort of reference to relate...drawing a blank...

His company was named something totally different to which he joked immediately after and said...yah...don't think I would be in business if it said 'blob' homes on the building

 

[Malak]

The worst name I knew, Richard Gobble. Worst username based on initials and last name, hasporn.

People don't make fun of my last name anymore because I immediately say giggity after.

 

[MarkXIX]

I just did business with a guy named Peter Tucker.
