Many moons ago my girlfriend went to school with a girl called Fanny Hymen. And next to my school was a dentist by the name of Dr Phang. Nominative determinism in full force there. More recently, in one of my forays into the music business, there was a chap call Rick Shaw, which always made me laugh. But my favourite is in fact a fairly common surname in India: Mistry. When I worked briefly in IT we had a client called Mr Mistry, which I thought would be a perfect name for a magician.... |  |

| "Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the Earth all one's lifetime." (Mark Twain)

I worked with a girl with the surname "Zero" which I always thought was an awesome name.
The best for me though was the highly successful basketball player, Chris Bosh. Always felt like the game commentators missed a trick by not just saying "Bosh" every time he hit a shot. |  | | |
