There's a U.S. District Court judge in Pennsylvania named Sylvia Rambo. This is mostly just funny because on her opinions it says "Rambo, District Judge"

With a last name like that, I'd at least try to give my child a semblance of normality with a usual sounding first name. But Afton? Isn't that in Surrey somewhere?

And I once worked with a campanologist called Dickon Love.

I swear to god: Britney Timberlake.

There was a name change application in one of the courts I cover filed by a guy named Mohammed Butt

It was actually for his daughter, whose name was something like Shareefa Butt.

He actually wrote, under reason for name change, "I want my daughter to stop being the butt of jokes"

But the best part was that the court office lady who showed it to me went on like this for about five minutes straight:

"Hi there, I'm Mr. Butt"
(long pause)
"Hey, I'm Mr. Butt, I'm here for my appointment."
(long pause)
"This is my wife, Mrs. Butt"

I met a bunch of people from this cult. I worked in a restaurant next to their "offices".

They all have retarded names. Like "heart spider", "morning Cloud", "Puff the magic dragon".

oh yeah, I also had a lawsuit once where all the plaintiffs were members of some weird christian sect and were named stuff like Wonderful Friendship Jackson and Loving Hope Freeman

Jason Math

just read this on cnn about the chinese espionage bust:

yeah, i suppose i'd go by "greg" too.

There is a cricketer called Napoleon Einstein, he plays for the Chennai Super Kings!

I'm no Tokyo Sexwhale, but my name is L3x (Al3xis) D1cks... sorry that I had to google-proof it. Googling my full name already yields some 2001 ILX posts, I don't need more!

Saw a customer record last week. Obviously not the name he was born with: R4phael Pr1nce Pr1nce-R4phael.

Rusty Kuntz

Various ex-clients and associates:

Mister M3l0n - I thought it was pronounced as in "Carnegie Mellon", his secretary told me that it wasn't. Very difficult to keep from laughing when I spoke to him on the phone.

D0ct0r Fuch5 - pronounced "fucks", German guy, genuinely didn't have any idea what his name meant in English, got very cross when I intentionally mispronounced it to avoid offending him... "Why is it that English people have such trouble pronouncing my name correctly? It is F-U-C-H-S FUCKS!!!"

A guy named after a particular copyrighted name for a plastic flying disc.

A woman whose surname meant "piglet" in French.

Also there was a girl who was named after a particular Latin American band.

nobody can top Artemis Pyle.
except maybe Cosmin Contra.

Also there was a girl who was named after a particular Latin American band.

I bet that Herb-Alpert's-Tijuana-Brass Johnson didn't get out much!

People actually frequently laugh when they hear my last name. It's happened twice in the last couple of days.

Is it "Von Trapp"?

No. Maria's not my actual first name, either.

(which makes me feel kind of bad posting under it when there is a real Maria, but I have been for years and there's at least one person in ILX who posts under my real name, so why bother switching?)

Massimo Possible.

Italian for "maximum possibility". actual name of guy I met while travelling.

are you sure? i mean, did you see id?

Annabel Else

His name has featured in many lists of footballer's unusual names.
