I once had a receipt from a female Walgreen's clerk whose name was apparently really Sukmeet.

I once had to talk security to an African gent who was the manager of a local chain-store whose name was Mr Wankey, and had to keep a straight face... and at school there was a girl called Theresa Green and a most unfortunately named girl whose surname was Hoare, who I bet got married real quick...
My favourite named person was a restaurant manager that was local to where I lived and a site I worked in repairing stuff for several years... her name was Rita (not Meeta Maid) Starling and she was a divorcee... her maiden name was Sparrow... Last I saw of her she was leaving to become the manager of a hotel in the West Country, with her soon to be new husband, whose surname was Hawk... What are the odds of that... start off life as a Sparrow, become a Starling, and then move on to become a Hawk... :mrgreen:

Guy who used to work for me part time after his retirement from the supermarket business once had a manager in his region whose real name was Balzer Frizon.

A good friend of ours changed her name via Deed Poll to Teresa Forrest.

Our drummer's surname is Hoare, but we never found out until we needed to provide copies of our passports to obtain a visa for an overseas gig.  He's always used his middle name as his surname, now we know.

Paul Revere's birth name was Paul Revere Dick.

Paul Dick and the Raiders wouldn't have had a reason to dress up in colonial outfits.

Anyway, it turns out that the subject of this thread is apparently a prankster. I should have known. Hoax!
