Her parents should be shot. I was in school with a girl named Candace Kane - Candy Kane. You can imagine the innuendos she heard.

I went to school with a Shawn Enis.... and if course his middle initial had to be a "p", so the yearbook naturally read "Shawn P Enis". There was some fun with that one.

Last name comes first in those cultures. It's actually Fun Chew [censored]. I'm marrying a Chinese woman, but she would have taken an American name if this was hers.

What was that guys name, the singer? Rupert Humperdinkle something? I thought that name was odd but he acheived some fame. In my high school the class president's name was Jack Hoff. He was paged a lot and the H sometimes was silent. After a while it was pronounced with two distinct words. LOL

Englebert Humperdinck (given name - Gerry Dorsey).

Don't forget Ima and Ura Hogg, from the high society Hogg family in Texas. Ima Hogg actually was a VERY amazing woman.

And of course there is Dweezel and Moon Unit Zappa.

LOL this reminds me of something funny a few years ago. I was calling names for my boss to interview job applicants, and one of the interviewees name was Amanda Love. There were about 30 people in a waiting room, and my boss said "Bring me Amanda Love". I walked out of the room, and as I was walking through the hallway, I just thought it didn't sound right. Then I got it-'Bring Me A Man To Love', I started cracking up, and I told my boss (a male) what he said later. It was pretty funny at the time.

Just so you know who Engelbert Humperdinck really was.

"Humperdinck, Engelbert (1854 - 1921)

Humperdinck is generally known for his fairy-tale opera Hänsel und Gretel, a Christmas favourite, first staged in Weimar in 1893. His career brought early contact with Wagner and subsequently with his family, as music tutor to Siegfried Wagner, the composer's son. He held various teaching positions of some distinction and enjoyed a fruitful collaboration in the theatre with Max Reinhardt, providing incidental music for a number of Shakespearean productions in Berlin."

The Humperdinck family was quite outraged to have a "lounge singer" (Gerry Dorsey) trying to get recognition by trading on a famous name.

There was a stockbroker in Laguna named Fuk Yu.
I kid you not. I saw his card.

Dick Biggs, US Army. He was a short skinny fellow. Army roll calls are made with last name first, so everytime they called out his name, everyone would burst out in laughter; Drill Sargeant included.

Everyone called him by his last name first, always omitting the "s" in Biggs.
