    I went to school with a girl whose name was Patty Pimple. You can guess the jokes and the teasing she got.

    I've a third cousin named Lance Armstrong. I dated a guy once but couldn't bear the idea of my name being Trish Tracey, and the thought of hyphenating to Casey-Tracey just wasn't happening....

    I work in a store, and we get some really funny names sometimes!

    Years ago when I worked in retail, a man named Richard Gere came in to pick up his raincheck item. We were fighting over who'd get to wait on him! Not quite the same man though. :(

    my dad's dermatologist is named Dr. Rashleigh and my X-SIL had an ob/gyn named Dr. Hackett.
