For those of you girls who work in customer service as I do (which means you have to get your kicks wherever you can)...
Funny names I have encountered from the public in recent days...
Trace Pool, Innes Moffat, Jason Mycock aaaaand Sandy Toy.
Anyone else got any Gems?

If I was at work I could look up some of the hilarious names that our farmers trade under (some of them own farms as a company or trust), but one of my faves that I *can* remember is "Whykickamoocow" !!!

This one will be understood more by any fans of the Highlander movies but I've had two customers with the last name Mcleod, and both had sons with the name Connor.
All I could think of was "I'm Conner McLeod of the clan Mcleod - there can be only one!)
A few years ago we had someone pop up who had changed his name by deedpoll to something like Funky Monkeypants.

I had a customer called Mr Pratt. Funniest part was he was getting grumpy with me as I couldn't find him in our system, so I kindly pointed out (and this is word for word), I am sure you can apprecaite Mr Pratt that there are a lot of Pratts in our system and I can't find you
