Horrendous Names!!!

I remember when we student nurses went for an evening out...usually to Grab a Granny Night at the Mecca...if we were asked our names by a young man we usedto make things up....My friend used to tell the guys she was called Melina Stools (melaena stools - a medical term for blood in your poo)...and I used to call myself Emma Royd (piles) which was quite apt because they used to tell me I was a pain in the bum. Ok....... I know they aren't very original, but it used to make us laugh.
 
When I was in hosp having my first there was a woman in there who was calling her baby daughter Candida until the nurses pointed out that it was a nasty infection.
 
We had such a hard time choosing names for my grandchildren as their surname is Hunt. Anything beginning with C was out for obvious reasons. Heide and Adam got binned. It was all very difficult.

I did have a doctor once called Richard Parrott. A lovely bloke but I don't suppose it helped being nicknamed Dicky Bird!
 
I saw a talk show on tv one time and they were interviewing a poor guy called Hertz, who had the given name Richard.
 
I went to school with a lad called Ben Dover :rolleyes: poor lad.

I currently look after a lady with the name A.Dick and that is no word of a lie. I'm sorry, but if I got with a fella and his last name was DICK I would NOT marry him.....especially when my first name begins with A. :o
 
I kid you not... I have just had an email in from a poor soul called Candie Smellie who works at the Welding Institute.

Unfortunate for her. But at least her parents were kind enough not to call her Fannie.

:D
 
A little girl neighbour is named Kia.
On greeting her I have to resist the temptation to say 'Hi Kia'
