...don't tell me you name is Stanley. I don't believe you. I'm going to assume you are a telemarketer and hang up.

Ted, Sandra? Come on. Does everyone in India have middle class American name? What if they call the hood? "Hi, I'm Latresha"?

Calling wales? "High, this is Rhys". BS.

Just tell me the name you were frigging born with. If I can't say it then I don't care.

I don't really care what their name is. They can leave it out. I also don't care what the name of my waiter or waitress is at a restaurant. The sentence "I'm Tiffany and I'll be your server" carries no useful information whatsoever.

Firstly, how the F do you know that they are Indian?
Secondly, its not of their choosing, the American company that hired then (directly/indirectly) wants some friendly names that they can pronounce or say easily, not because they want to disguise.
Thirdly, only cheap people who do business with cheap companies get calls from Indian call centers, or maybe you are Indian or doing business directly with Indian companies, mainly financial organization. So its your fault in the first place that you are getting calls from India. Myself, or anyone I know never get calls from Indian call center.

So... final word, get a life bigot.

Yes, those are all real indian names. We have many contractors from Cognizant and TCS here. They all have names like John, Peter, and Mary.

Damn fake middle-class names. I want them to use a fake rich name, like Piers or Gwyneth or Maximilian. If you're going to lie to me anyway, might as well make the most of it. And I'm absolutely giving all my passwords to Piers; Ted can fuck right off.

And yet they will still keep calling. Doing such things only seems to serve the one being annoyed and never helps.
My wife tried various things for a while to her own amusement but did nothing to prevent them from trying over and over.

Personally I don't answer the phone if I don't recognize the number, I just hate it when they let my voice mail run it's entire 2 minutes with them not saying anything but the sounds of office noises in the background. I don't know what purpose they think that will serve them.
 
They aren't necessarily fake. I've met a number of Indians now whose christian parents gave them boring english-language names. Legacy of colonization and whatnot.
