Parents usually think long and hard for the perfect names or nicknames to give their new baby, but sometimes they make some bizarre choices that leave their poor kids scratching their heads. (snip) Let’s take a look at some of the best funny names from across the world.
Sincerely Yours 98 Pascual (snip)
Marijuana Pepsi Jackson -Sometimes a name comes along that sounds like someone came up with it during a wild party. But despite what you may think, Marijuana Pepsi Jackson is an actual Ph.D holder and educational professional from the U.S.A.
KVIIIlyn - Speaking of numbers in someone’s name, Jessica Mavis from Gold Coast thought it would be clever to replace the ‘ait’ sound in the perfectly regular baby girl name Kaitlyn with the number eight. But a regular old ‘8’ wasn’t unique enough for Jessica, who stuck in the Roman numeral VIII and so little KVIIIlyn was christened!
Tokyo Sexwale (snip)
Batman Bin Suparman (snip)
Beezow Doo-Doo Zopittybop-Bop-Bop (snip)Speaking of criminals with funny real names, this next person seems to keep ending up on the wrong side of the law. In 2016, he was arrested for assaulting an officer, despite having been previously shot by a stun gun. He was also arrested in 2012 and 2013 for drug and weapon charges. Mr. Zopittybop-Bop-Bopp has his name legally changed in 2011 from the perfectly normal Jeffrey Wilschke, before embarking on his crime spree. Maybe he should have chosen a less memorable name!

I had a great-uncle named Captain.
It wasn’t a problem until he got drafted in the army. When they decided they couldn’t call a private Captain, they decided they wanted to use his middle name, which happened to be General.
They called him Captain.
There was a cardiologist in Boca Raton 30 years ago named Dr. Deth.
Just today I came across a woman’s name that seemed normal until I saw that her maiden name was Titsworth.
Now that you mention it, there was.
My favorite bit was the mass moaning in the ranks, like bing cherries they were!

I love nicknames...heh, as long as you got a decent one. You get a bad one, you gotta figure out how to own it, because it is hard to shake one.
I knew guys with names like Snots, Chief Muddy Waters, Squash, El Gropo, Wingnut, Ricketywho, Nipples, Stinky, The Preacher, Greaseman, Corky, The White Whale, Groty, Steaktip, Bruce Lee...
Chief Muddy Waters (so called because of his ever present chaw of tobacco and the brown spit) was the official nickname assigner for a while, so everyone who came into our squadron’s line division got a nickname from him!
Do people even give nicknames anymore, or is it considered disrespectful??? Lol, they sure can be disrespectful, that is for sure...but I don’t know anyone who died from one either.
Guy got a new driver, he asked him what his name was.
"Charles, sir."
"I call my employees by their last name. What is your last name?"
"Darling, sir."
"Well... drive on Charles!"
I actually have a friend whose last name is Titsworth!
Ida Bendover.
There is a Richard Good, gynecologist in owensboro ky. When I was in Fairbanks Ak. In the early 80’s there was a Flopsalotofit, Richard in the phone book. For those in Rio Linda
Richard = Dick
When I was in high school in the 1960s, I knew a guy named Bud Weiser and a girl named Debbie Fink.
Had a lady thinking about a girls name and told her “I like Anastasia, Dasia, but love Euthanasia. She said “ Ohh that’s pretty “.
My great uncle from mid- State NY Was named Harold James Ball.
My wife knew someone named Ima Joy Bell.
Harry Palm. Seymour Butts.
Went to high school with a girl named Debbie Vegetable.
My father served in WWII with someone named Pfuhl, who had the nickname “Heavy.” I don’t think the man was overweight. It was a play on “heavy fuel.”
There is a Goodbody Mortuary in San Diego.
We ran a call on a guy in jail name Conan Jungleman (?). The officer said he had been dealing with him since he was a young kid.
Let’s not forget the departed NASCAR driver, Dick Trickle.
