I have an amazingly common name so I hear it often
The first person I spoke to at one of our customers the day I joined here had my name. Made for an odd conversation

Me: "Hello, can I speak to (sportscow's real name) please?"
Them: "Can I ask who is calling?"
Me: "(sportscow's real name)"
Them: "Errrrr...... OK"

In a previous job
There was a guy in an other team called Mike Cockhead. Pronounced 'Cock-Head'. Being the clever chap that I am, I got around it by phoning their office and saying 'Can I speak to Mike please?'

'Which Mike do you want? There are two here.'

I do hope this is true
There is a Mike Cox here

"Can I speak to Mike Cox?"

Oh, it's true
I admired the fact that it didn't bother him. I probably would've changed it if it were my name.

As someone who is good friend with a Paul Daniels, I guess they have heard it all before

Oh absolutely
I know a pharmacist who has a regular customer called Mr Bastard. Same thing, he's heard it all before.
