Names you just can't keep a straight face to

[Vegosiux]

Okay, I've been thinking. Some names just make me chuckle inside. Or even outside. However, first...a disclaimer.

This thread is not about unfortunate name combinations such as Drew Peacock, Goodluck Jonathan or Lucious Pusey (one of those guys is the current president of Nigeria, by the way, and another plays for E. Illinois Panthers).

Nor is it a thread about names of characters who make you chuckle.

It's about normal, everyday names, names that most people would consider innocuous, yet for some reason, you can't, and about the names themselves, as in, the mere mention of which makes you giggly.

So let me begin. Names I can't keep a straight face to, in my case. Oh and by the way, let's just say that "Richard" is likely to pop up often, huh? But, yeah...

Gerald, Sonny, Dominic, Jennifer, Freddie being the main ones I have a hard time keeping a straight face to. No idea why.

Pahahahaha.....

But seriously, I find names like Apple to be ridiculous.

Hope, Charity, Candy.

You know, stripper names

These too.

 

[Valagetti]

Anything thats a noun... 'you know like Sunshine or Battery'. Guess what comedian I'm quoting there?
OT: Gary, just cause of Jack Frags Machinima video (BF3), called 'Gary', can't get it up ( no pun intended)

 

[Cranky]

Long, complicated and unique names. Seriously, there's tons of people with those where I'm living. Werid combinations for first names like Nicholionel or some thing. What the hell.

Hope, Charity, Candy.

You know, stripper names

This too.

Yoko Ono
erik estrada
Big O
Twitter(sounds quite sexual to me)
chamillionaire

 

[Agow95]

Rylan Clarke, because that's the name of a friend at school and a british X Factor contestant, who is the campest person alive. Also Rylan is a stupid name in the first place.

 

[Shocksplicer]

Dominic

Gee thanks...

Anyone under the age of 30 with a name one would usually associate with the elderly, like Esther or Maureen.

 

[Ragsnstitches]

Fran (shorthand for Frances (female)).... because of one particular sequence in the series Black Books.

 

[Genocidicles]

People named after cars, like Mercedes and Porsche.

Yeah, those names weren't originally car names, but I bet you anything the parents did name them after cars.

There's also a politician in England called Ed Balls. I always snigger when I hear his name.

 

[Idlemessiah]

Why Fanny Chmelar of course!

 

[Combustion Kevin]

when's the last time you met someone named "dick".

bonus points if he's also a nice dude.

 

[Mister K]

What was the real name of Cassidy from Preacher? Proinsias?
Sorry, people of Ireland, but I can't take this name seriously.

 

[RhombusHatesYou]

People named after cars, like Mercedes and Porsche.

So people named after cars that were named after people in the first place?

Pahahahaha.....

That is worst name someone could inflict on their child.

 

[Genocidicles]

So people named after cars that were named after people in the first place?

As I said in the rest of my post, their parents were almost certainly thinking of the cars.

Why Fanny Chmelar of course!

....Wow. I'm astounded.

Not because of the name mind you but because I got ninja'd on a clip from The Chase!

The funniest thing is for a while he was the Schools Minister and actually had to go into schools and talk to groups of children

How did any of them not laugh him off when he was introduced
