Had to chuckle whilst watching the cricket and seeing one of the West Indians called RAMDIN.

Can just imagine the commentator saying... 'there goes Ramdin Hard on the trail of his sixth catch'...

What other strange (and funny) names can you chaps think of?

I remember the old footballing ones.....

SEAMAN (England)
FUCHS (Germany)
KUNTZ (Germany)
 
Got a book with some bad cricket names:

Julian Wiener
John Crapp
Julius Caesar
Rana saheb Shri Sir Natwarsinghji Bhavsinghji, the Maharaja of Probandar
Ted Badcock
Sir Spencer Cecil Brabazon Ponsonby Fane
Percy Hornibrook
Geffrey Noblet

Last two are the best.

Badcock! Lol!
 
Ramadhin and Valentine were two of the best known West Indian cricketers of yesteryear. Nearly sure there was a song about them. An era before pace and bouncers took over.
 
When I heard the joke about the back four of Naylor, Young, Balde & Fanni I sniggered for days, in spite of myself.



I worked briefly in a call centre once and my first call was from an asian bloke called Iwona Butt.

There's a legendary wind up where the announcer at heathrow is asked to say the following 'will mr mabass issatwat and ahetem abass please go to the information desk'
