we used to have a long list of customers with funny names
list got so long , and management got wind of it...

had names like M Super , Randy Cocks (for real) ,

a lot of dutch names are hilarious, simply because they never had last names till Napoleon forced them to get some, and then they took silly names as a protest... but ended up stuck with them

I don't know that it's funny, but a guy used to come into a bar where I bartended with the name "Abdul Abdulla Odinga". I think he was from someplace in Africa. I always thought it had a musical quality if you say all three names.
