In my teens I worked part time behind the deli counter at Co-Op with a bloke called Simon Knellor (I kid you not).

I also used to work with an indian bloke called Harminder Batth.

You’ve reminded me I used to work with a Louise Rolls. First name always got shortened, obviously.

For anyone who works in the financial markets, there used to be a list circulated every Christmas of the silliest names listed on Bloomberg. I haven’t seen it for a few years but there are some I’ll never forget.

Wan Kim
Donna Bumgardner
Nimrod Weiselfish
Hiroshi Takenoshita

And my own favourite:

Gustavo Cunto

In my previous existence as a call centre manager, we had to ring a customer because we had a contract in his name. We were all pretty sure it was fake, but we had to be sure. It took ages before we found a volunteer who promised he wouldn't laugh when he asked for the customer. The customer was an ex military fellow, and we had to ring and ask for a "Major R Sole". His wife answered and said "Yes its genuine, yes I know what it sounds like, no he wont stop using the Major. I kid you not.

My dad's mate's wife was called Minjeeta.
Always made me chuckle.

A few names of people who have published scientfic research I have read made me smile. For sheer absurdity this takes the biscuit:

Not quite a forename issue but years ago I came across a customer who had the initials A.G.E. and the surname Bumpass. Our records had surname first.

It was one of my happiest days when the German footballer, Stefan ****z was linked to Man United....just imagine how many shirts they could have sold. Sadly he was never signed.
