A guy I worked with once, mentioned someone he used to work with. He said when he started that job they said, "You're going to work with Jack Frost". So, he worked with a guy named Jack Frost.
At Wal-Mart (the corporate office) they used to page a couple of people all the time with funky names. My favorite was Candy Beavers.
And then there was Bud Hogue, which they also pronounced too fast.
I saw a guy working at an amusement park named Hung. I worked with a guy once named Dong.
Somewhere, there's a Chinese guy named Hu Nguyen (who when), I'm just sure of it.
My wife used to work with some girls who were in foster care with the last name of "Maggot". They called them the "Maggot sisters". Awful.
I was at work one day, and a co-worker introduced me to this kid who was doing some sort of shadow program where they could watch people in the "real world" work. The conversation went like this:
Me: "Hi, I'm Curtis. What's your name?"
boy: "I'm Steven."
Me: "Oh, I have a nephew about your age named Steven."
boy: "I just became an uncle again this past weekend."
Me: "Oh, really (thinking this boy was awful young to be an uncle)?"
boy: "Yea, my sister just had her second baby, a girl."
Me: "Oh, what did she name her?"
boy: "Queen".
Me: "Oh, what an interesting name."
boy: "Yea, the father's last name is Warrior. So the baby's full name is Queen Latifah Warrior."
...
I feel sorry for that kid.
My wife worked with someone as part of her job, and they had a baby, and one of the middle names was Armani. My wife was like, "Armani?" And the woman said, "Yea, you know, like the suit!"
Of course.
