He he, that is funny. I have correspondence right now with a guy whose name is
Eugen Schniepel (Schniepel=that is what you call a penis of a small boy in German, you get the picture) and he lives in Titisee-Neustadt, that would be Titilake-Newtown.
I just hope he does not read this. I mean, how many Eugen Schniepels are there in Titisee-Neusstadt?
Plus, he is the local bailiff/marshal in Titisee-Neustadt and his name is Schniepel.
Pardon me, I just don't get over it.

Local(ish) businessman and his wife had a daughter. They loved the name "Tess" so much, that they gave the name to their new little girl.

Nothing wrong with that...........


..........except the surname is Tickle.



They swear they had no idea.

I've known a couple of Charlie Browns and even met a guy named Richard Head once, but my favorite is a woman I met at a customer site with the name of Bea Rheale.

The company I worked for had a district manager nammed Bill Dumass (pronounced "Do Maas")

You can imagine how I thought it was pronounced when I first read the name. Good thing I didn't say what I thought his name was when I first met him. :rotfl:

There was a quarter horse running at Los Alamitos race track named
Oliver Klozov. He was running against a filly named Sister Ann Marie.
Oliver Klozov was leading till the last 15 yards but Sister Ann Marie passed
him for the win.

The announcer called it this way " Sister Ann Marie got Oliver Klozov at the wire."
True Story:rotfl:

I worked with a Bryan Bryan and was good friends with a Peter Enis. He used to sit in the pub saying,"I hate my Dad, he just never thought".
