There's a football player called Louza. Pronounced like Loser.

There's a candidate for Governor of Indiana in today's US elections called Donald Rainwater, which is a hilarious name for some reason.

A native American name I guess; I'm just sniggering about all those old jokes now.......................

Like I've said before, here in France there are some cracking old names like Bastard, Bigot & Moron

I wish my last name was Bastard.

I remember when I was a kid meeting my mum's old neighbour in Quebec, their last name was LaFramboise. I nearly did myself a mischief trying not to blow raspberries at her.

Framboise can also be a girl's name would you believe! And Cricket - imagine naming your child after a boring game or an insect

I've always wanted to change my name to Rowdy Saloon but I'm thinking Cricket Bastard-Moron would more suit my aesthetic.

 

[Rita Chevrolet]

Yes Cricket Bastard-Moron has a certain ring to it!
Its also an excellent new name for on here

Watching the news and just come across the name Jack Russell

Both are fantastic. If you're choosing Cricket Bastard-Moron, then I'm taking Rowdy Saloon.

I always thought Newt Gingrich was an odd name. Is it short for Newton or did his parents really like salamanders? I also heard of a Randy Bumgardner (or Baumgardner) which is another very unfortunate name.

Being from England, I'm familiar with rude/funny place names. I lived next to 'Pity Me' for a while. Other faves include Shittlehope and Blubberhouses.

Penistone always makes me laugh/cringe whenever I hear it mentioned

 

[FoksiOska]

Haha I live quite near there so go regularly and see it written everywhere. It does get to a point where you no longer notice the uniqueness (shall we say!) of the name but I can see why it's still funny
I do still sometimes say I'm off to Penis Town though lol

 

[Melian]

I've just come across the name William Williamson. I used to know a lady who gave her son her maiden name as his first name. She got divorced and had to keep his surname as his dad's else he would have been called (for example) Thomas Thomas.

In the news, there's a town in Queensland called Bogie.

I always say we are "Between a rock and a hard place".

(Hi, neighbour!)

There is also the place owned by Yorkshire Water called "Cheese Bottom"
