People with Stupid NamesThere are hundreds of unfortunate people out there with silly names desparately coping with the evil their parents perpetrated upon them at birth.
So far, I've met a woman called Rusty Tharp, a child health consultant called Peter Files and have the business card for "Fab Boolaky" on my desk.
We'd like you to tell us about the people you've met or work with that have silly, inappropriate or frankly wierd names.

Uni daysWhile I was at uni, I stayed on campus, where there were lots of people with names to pick from.
One guy called Mick Condon always got a lot of shit about his name.
Someone was looking for Nikki Cant, but the person just kept saying Nikki, until after numerous repeats of "who", he finally said the full name, and everyone else sat back and said "oh yes she can" with pleased expressions.
Frank Yu's name always got abbreviated to F Yu, particularly when going up on boards.
And finally I played in a pool comp against an asian dude with the name Ben Hur. It was a big match.
