Zain Verjee (female)
Csaba Csere (male)
Barack Obama
Besa Tafilaj
Tempestt Bledsoe
Dick Butkis
Tahmoh Penikett
Dick Schnot (my favourite!)

And btw how come Americans have so much difficulty saying and spelling a simple one syllable name like Jubb and seemingly no problem with Polish, Serbo-Croat, German names?

Let me get this right......You used to collect vehicle licence tags.....and now you collect weird names to hear on TV? Well at least if I ever visit your home town I'll spot you straight away......................... in your Millets Anorak!! FFS :rolleyes: I need to find another way of killing time other than BE.

Twin boys at my daughter's school were called Limonjello and Oranjello.

Also, one of the teenage girls at that school had a baby (she was 14 at the time) and decided to call her daughter Placenta as she thought that it was a very pretty name :eek: :D

If you ever find one will you let me know. That or a way of killing the Three Word Story thread in the lounge. Reading that makes listening to Leonard Cohen while stubbing cigarettes out on my forehead and rocking back and forth seem like a more desireable pasttime

If I may just digress onto place names for a second... we've just returned from fossil hunting at the charmingly-named Bug Tussle, Texas.
