    Work with a girl who's last name is Dickstein. She's really pretty but I can still imagine it was hard for her growing up.

    Girl in my high school, last name Traylor, married a dude last name Parks. I don't think she uses a hyphenated last name, but if she did it would be Traylor-Parks.

    Years ago Letterman used to do a bit where people with names like this would send in copies of their IDs. The best one I remember was an asian guy named Harry Dong.

    Not exactly in the same vein but my high school ski coach was Mike Hunt, we used to love yelling his name. Dweebiest guy ever, I don't think he ever picked up on what we were doing.

    Yes, that was actually pretty funny to watch mainstream put that out with out any research, but I think this thread is more about real names.

    Seems like we've been down this road before...

    One of my favorites is my sister had a job interview with someone named Joe King.

    A fellow salesman friend of mine. Dick Payne. Brilliant! No customer or prospective customer would ever forget his name.

    Anyone recall the name of the Chinese fighter pilot that bumped and forced our spy plane to land a few years back?

    The Falaktiks had a daughter named Anna. She was prone to gasping.

    Yup - in German "Lohn" is pronounced "Loan" and actually one of the definitions is just that. Could also mean "Merit" or "Salary."
