I work as a computer help guy. I get to meet a lot of people. Incidentally, I get to meet a lot of people with a lot of different names. The other day, I had a customer. His name was Mr. _______ Colon.
Not pronounced as "Cologne." No, it was colon. Mr. Colon, to you. And I thought to myself.. there is no way I could ever take the last name of Colon.
I am not kidding when I say I knew a kid in school with the first name of - s h i t h e a d. It was pronounced shih-thayed. I wanted to slap his parents.
That being said, I've seen all sorts of funny last names. Phallus was a funny one. Seriously, Phallus. I'd take my chances with Colon than Phallus.
I used to work with a man whose first name is Dick, and his last name Payne.
