Amusing surnames lighthearted post

When we lived in the Caribbean our paediatrician was a Dr. Bratt!

My son had a friend in school called Omar Shariff.

Hello group
I really enjoyed the nice names, which made me to join the group!
Would like to mention name of an Indian Film star: Madhuri Dikshit

Ooh I wouldn't want to be a Mountain!

I'm too fat to be called that.

One of my boyfriends had the surname Mountain. Her was a nice guy but fickle that I was I didn't fancy the surname Mountain. We became good friends.

I had a friend named Beverley Hills.
I thought it was quite nice, but I'm not sure I'd want it to be my name.

I remember a friend telling me her neighbour had had a baby boy they had named Scott. Unfortunately their surname was Stuck!

My dads friend was called David Davies, and my SIL maiden name was Waters her brother is called Blue!.
When I worked as a dental nurse we had a lady patient called Sidebottom, who insisted it was pronounced
Sid e botham!

Hi Sandy,

Just taking time before the holiday season kicks in to send you and yours wishes for a happy and peaceful Christmas.

It goes without saying, if you are in touch with The Scarlet Pimpernel, please send my wishes to her also. Things are just not the same without the anarchy she and you could create.

Joyeux Noel from a soggy Brittany!

Gotobed is a local name as is Badcock!

When I was a teenager our vicar was Rev Shufflebotham and we had a Doctor Champion who was nicknamed, Champion the Wonder Horse

I once taught twins called Albert and Victoria Hall. I used to have to take a deep breath when taking the register and NOT laugh.

Sorry to sound a bit rude, but we had a local football club and the man who ran it was called Willie Pullar.

We once had a milkman called Mr Christmas. I wonder if he had any relatives who joined the priesthood and become 'Father Christmas'...

I know a school where there used to be a married couple on the staff, Mr and Mrs Trainer. Known by the pupils as 'the pair of trainers'.

In primary school we had a headmaster and headmistress Mr. Wright and Miss Smart.

Our local hospital had a consultant orthopaedic surgeon called Mr. Cartilidge.

A friends relative is called Wayne king and my doctor in Northern Ireland was called Annette Curtain

Two dentists in the same practice called Mr Lamb and Mr Butcher; you can guess which had more patients.

Sheesh, I forgot to give a translation.

It could mean 'Thanks, Poo.'
In fact, as in English, a Maori word can have many meanings, so it's not as bad as it first appears.

I've just been introduced to a Miss Susan Tiplady. Not hilarious but a little bit amusing because she's a rubbish truck driver

Shabi and Grimes on Sky Press Preview tonight.

We have a lady in our group - Mihi Tutae. She's delightful and doesn't deserve a surname like that.

These have all made me laugh. When I was a kid there was a butchers shop up the road and the owner was called Mr Butcher. Some of my classmates (boys of course) would prank call him and clash knives together and cry ‘butcher’. I think it was well before tracking calls as the two trouble makers never seemed to get caught.

my mother went to school with a jack frost in the 1930s she was from north east coast of england .its cold up there

my mother went to school with a jack frost

got a book of funny names by the auther Russell Ash.its hilarious.like Potty.Fartwell and Knob.extraodinary but true names of british people lol

Mention of a 'Chris' just reminded me that when I lived out in a rural area (where we all knew one another) my friend Christine was going out with a Stephen Cross.

If she'd taken his name when they married, in 2000, she would have been Chris Cross - fortunately she kept her own, Barrett.

Just seen Dr Ribchester on tv ! Appropriate.
