You think somewhere in the process, some PennDot employee would have noticed she was actually changing her last name to FUNK.

Now the question is this … do you ask for a correction or do you show up at the DMV with a camera card with this name on it and see if after they finish your license they call out, “F*#K? COREY JO … oh, wait.”
(thanks to Corey’s sister, reader Stacey who sent it to me)

Let me ask y’all a question. How many nicknames are there for
the name Richard?Rick, Rich, Richie, Ricky, and Dick?
It amazed me that a politician in NH who was a Congressman and then lost a bid for Senator, had those choices, and his last name is Swett picked, yep, you guessed it- Dick!
Dick Swett!
You can’t make this stuff up!

I had a professor in college who’s last name was Moist. She came back after a summer break and was married…her new name? Dr. Moist-Johnson. WHY WOULD YOU HYPHENATE THAT??
My personal favorite though is this…a woman at my doctor’s office was named Anita Buttram. I don’t think I’ve ever been so shocked in my life as when I was sitting in the waiting room and heard them call her name. The receptionist, obviously feeling odd, pronounced it “Bootrum” and was corrected by the woman herself – “its Buttram” ANITA BUTTRAM. Can you imagine?!?!?!

Lisa G. Says:
OK-this is no lie…one of the doctors I used to work with had a patient named Harry Dick! And he was the most miserable bastard you ever met. Wonder why! But seriously, who would do that to their child???

LOL@Gina-
At least her name wasn’t Dr. Stiff…..

Anita Buttram should have married Harry Dick! and then she would be Anita _____

Letterman did a Top 10 list of these names when he was doing his show on the road in Chicago a few years ago (or a decade ago?). Anyway, it was Top 10 Illinois Drivers’ Licenses and as I remember it, he had the people there to say their names and the screen showed their licenses at the same time.
All of them were dirty, of course — There was a Harry Dick and Something-or-other Johnson, but the No. 1 was a little old lady whose name was Minnie Cox. The crowd started chanting “We love Minnie Cox!” and of course, the little grandma looked confused. It was tearfully funny.

We have a construction company around here that is owned by the Witherup family. They put up metal buildings and on the doors of the trucks in big letters it says “Witherup Erection” Around here they are known as the limp dick trucks..

My wife used to own a hair salon and on occasion I would write in a fictious name in their appointment book. Goofy ones, like Roland DeHay.
Anyway one day I booked an appointment under one of younger stylists. Around the scheduled time she’s starts getting a little chaffed because her “appointment” was late. She starts ranting about the place…Who’s this Stu? Does anyone know this Stu Pedazzo? Well, everyone in the place got it right off…except her of course.

Mrs. Daddy has a relative of some sort (I’ve never been real clear on the connection) whose name is Diok Seaman.
When I was in college, a guy I knew told us his mother had been in an accident and when she traded info with the other driver learned his name was Richard Head.

On a related note, someone told me that Matt Suhey was signed by the Angels this offseason. He’ll be an absolute legend if he gets a World Series ring to match his Super Bowl ring.

I have a good friend who was in the Navy for a number of years. Apparently one of the ranks is “Seaman” so you get Seaman Jones, etc etc.
Well, one poor guy had the last name Staines. Yes, he was Seaman Staines until he moved up a rank. My friend said everyone had to stifles giggles when they spoke to the guy because they had to use the rank as well as the name and it was just funny.

A long time ago there was a story on the local news about a man who was upset about the road in front of his house and the condition it was in. He put up a sign that said “Honk if you hate PennDot”. It got so loud he had to take it down.

Absolutely 100% true story: I used to work with a woman whose original name was Debbie Jock. She of course got tormented all through school. She told me she had hated her name and vowed that when she married she would marry a man with a nice, regular, normal name.
She married Bobby Smelley.

Speaking of Doctors, we used to have a dentist named Dr. Meany. We kids were never up for that appointment. On the other hand, as a baby, I was delivered by Dr. Natale.
Speaking of retail shenannigans, my brother used to call for me at the store I managed and use a Caddyshack classic. Then one of my clerks would uneasily come up to me and say, “you have a call from a ‘Mitch Cumstein’ on line one.”

eileen Says:
This isn’t dirty but I grew up with two kids named George Smiley and Joey Laffey. One time we were drinking underage at the local park. Police came and we all ran. Those two got caught. In those days the police would just call your parents then take you home. When the police asked their names and they told them Smiley and Laffey, well, they went to jail.
