Weird/Funny Surnames

[goal_umpire]

Now I am not meaning to be rude by knocking some surnames.

I have seen and heard some really funny surnames.

I don't know if you watched the Basketball in the olympics but there was an Italian player with the surname of ****a

 

[Docker_Brat]

Isn't he your uncle?

In the rugby league Sevens a few years ago (when they used to have them) there was a Tongan or Samoan (or some Pacific islander) named Fukofuka.

At the risk of sounding morbid, there was a woman by the name of Fanny Green in the death notices a couple of weeks ago...

Of course in the paper the surname was first...

GREEN, Fanny... much to the amusement of Blues_Girl and myself.

What's worse... her maiden name was SHARD... so she went from a Fanny Shard to a Green Fanny.

Poor thing...

There was an umpire called Crapp in the early 1900s.



Anyone with a smattering of Hungarian-even the swear words like me-would know that the names *****fos and Fosdyke are particularly hilarious.

When I worked in the public service we had a client called Huu Dihd Dat.

Commentating on the fielding of Arthur Morris, the great Australian batsmen, whose only blemish had been to miss a chance off Englands Jack Crapp:'...and Morris' fielding was splendid, spoiled only when he dropped Crapp in the utfield.'

There was a minor league local politician about 20 years ago who's name was, Di(k Head. No foolin' He won office a lot too. Whenever an election would come up, people would steal his political signs just because they were funny.

Eventually, he left politics. Got too soft.

How about Dikky Bird who used to umpire cricket in England. Great umpire and really nice guy according to the aussie cricketers.

There's an umpire that usually occupies the goalsquare at AAMI Stadium by the name of Wood****. Dunno his first name, but gee, the poor must have a hard time, if you'll pardon the pun.

He didn't measure up? Or were things just too hard?

When I used to show my Cairn Terriers, there was a judge called Richard Head who had no idea, after his decisions were handed down, you would hear the majority of people saying what else would you expect from a D*ck Head.

Also, when I lived in East Ringwood, the Rangers name was Mr Slaughter strangely enough, he was the nicest man & adored animals, always did his best to find homes for dogs who were on death row.

Mary Christmas would be an unfortunate name.

The Herald Sun often posts lists of odd names. A couple I remember are a vet named Dr. Horsey from Werribee and Dr. Blood, a dentist in Geelong.
