Just read of an Aussie of Vietnamese origin who has repeatedly had his Facebook account closed due to his real name being Phuc Dat Bich. Could be an interesting thread here...

Phat Dong - name of a Korean restaurant manager I once prosecuted in Knigthsbridge Crown Court for attacking an obnovious French customer who had dared to criticise the standard of the food. Jury just about got over their giggles in time to find him guilty but I dare say they would have found mitigating circumstances if they'd been allowed to give such a verdict. If I told you he'd used a weapon I'm sure that would be too titillating and you'd be disappointed if I told you what it was.
 
Bloke who took over the Half Moon Pub Harrow. Called Mike Hunt (from County Mayo) who liked to be called Mick. Good bloke and had many a good drink with him and his family. Top bloke.
 
A fella who works at my company, not had the fortune/misfortune to meet him whose first name is Nighar, I'm not trying to pronounce that out loud!

Not a funny name but Shahid Morris a lad at my school made the most of it by stealing some money out of a teachers purse and was thereafter known as Ali Shaha and the forty quid

Whilst working in aerospace a myriad moons ago some colleagues had to meet with a German whose surname was Schitt. They tried to get around this by stifling sniggers and instead pronouncing it as one might pronounce 'school', but each time he corrected them.
 
A mate of mine is looking at opening a chip shop. Anyway after a few jars down the pub we decided to try and help suggest a few catchy names that you would not forget.

Sea Mans codpiece fish and chips....





















Getting my coat...:emoticon-0148-yes:<whistle>

Seems that 'Phac Dat Bich' is more like 'Dat Bich is full of Sh!t'. .... A hoax. I'm posting from my phone but there is a link in the papers.
