If your last name is Fok, it's unfortunate when your given name is Dick.

Just came across a Dick Fok. Fok being a common Cantonese sir name. Yes I know that's his English name and not his real given name. Still it loled a bit.

I was looking at documents in a litigation a few weeks ago, and ran across an email chain with the subject line "Dick Meister." Apparently Richard Meister lost his luggage or something. If that's the name you've been given, I would think I'd stick with Richard.

:confused: Don't know. Just a customer I met, name came up in the database as Dick.

One of my favorite work pass times. :awe:

We had a funny one yesterday. Last name was Quiddlebush. I think we had a Dick Long at one point too.

i'd rather be a Dick Fok than a Locut0s. a name like Dick Fok must haul in some serious ass. can't say the same for the latter.

I met a couple with the last name Quick and they had named their son Willy (not Will or William). He was only 3 and a bit of a hyperactive rug rat, so they thought it was funny. I know he will grow up to hate them.

Had a couple friends in college...they were "randomly paired" in the dorms as roommates. One's last name "Suk" (Korean), the other Dick.
