I just googled Gerhard F*cker on google.de (click on the Seiten aus Deutschland option) and although doesn't appear, you just scroll down the list and their are loads of them: Kai, Günter and so on. It's very childishly amusing.

Used to be an Austrian company (maybe still is) called fiddle Warengesellenschaft (apologies if I got spelling wrong)

For some reason they appeared in a list of our customers above a UK company where worked a gentleman called Mr. Seaman

Childish i know but it always amused us.

When I worked for Nortel one of my American contacts was Randy Goodnight and in the DWP we had a long term disability customer called Ivor Payne.

Also I remember driving behind a lorry belonging to a company called "Pastor Frigor"

Peggy Bundy the character who's in Married With Children. Her maiden name was Peggy self-gratification artist.

OK, I do remember someone I had to talk to on conference calls in the US. Her real name as witnessed by her email was Vendetta Blow

 

[Auntie Helen]

I remember when one of the big bosses from America came to visit the UK arm of the operation (they always used to come over for little jaunts, we never got to visit them in Alabama (not sure that's too much of a problem)).

Anyway, this redneck American chappie strides up to me and says in a very strong Southern accent, "Hi, I'm Randy".

Somehow I kept a straight face.

 

[Scoosh]

I worked alongside a Canadian guy named Randy Kuntz. [coonts - yeah right ]

Imagine telling your pals you work for The Bender Group, and your boss is Randy Bender.

You would if you worked for this Real Estate agent in the US !!

Just remembered another - my Dad had a teacher at High School in the late 1950's called Hugh Flucker.

Poor bloke ended up changing his name by deed-poll after a few years of torment from the kids.

There used to be a bloke on the C+ forum whose username was "Dickie". As I remember, his posts appeared under the name "Flowerbedsie" as the C+ auto censor automatically edited his name.
As my post above shows, even inserting formatting tags doesn't work here. I'm sure it used to.
Anyway, as a mod I'm supposed to be setting an example.

I remember that autocensor producing "Sflowerhorpe"....

I am presently dealing with a colleague whose first name is Kumkum.

Did he become the headmaster at Brambletye ? "Hugh Cocke"
really! http://www.brambletye.co.uk/governors_and_staff.php

His wife L.C Cocke (Holds the Cocke)

If you are aged between 8 and 13 (age of all the pupils) then this is of course hilarious. A headmaster that does not need a nickname, must be a first.

This morning I wanted to send an email to someone whose first name is Steve. Normally I'd start with the surname and wait for the autocomplete to pick the name from the (enormous) international addressbook.

But today I started with Steve, except I typed Seve..

The addressbook returned "Severe Fanny"

Ooh! Hark at you. The most self-consciously Mod since Bradley Wiggins.
