The worst name (phonetically)?
-
As I sent George his daily Dick pic, it occurred to me that Dick Butkus might have the worst sounding name, ever… Whaat names (of real people) are worse?

I once got a work enquiry from a guy in South Africa named Viril de Kock

I went to school with twins named William and David Dickgraber. (Pronounced with long A).
I remember when they first showed up in gym class and coach was laughing and said ‘is there a Bill and Dave Dickgrabber here?’ Surprisingly, that made all the jr high boys laugh.
A few years back I tried to see what became of them. One was an attorney in the Philadelphia area. I couldn’t find the other, maybe he was smart enough to change his name.

When I was telefundraising, you would get into a rhythm of putting the number in, then looking at the name if somebody was actually answering. One time, somebody started answering the phone, and I glanced at the name. Jodi Fucques… I hold back the laugh and manage to be mature enough to say “Good Afternoon, Ms. Fūcques (long u). She immediately interrupts “No, that’s Fucks” (phonetically) I lost it then and just hung up.
