Stupid film star and pop star names

I have always loved the name Rip Torn and also Slim Pickens. There was also Billy Fury. Uma Thurman is a pretty silly name, sounds more like a machine gun than a woman!

Edwood Woodward

Sounds like a porn star, the man with tripple wood.

There's a former major league baseball player called Rusty Kuntz.

What gets me is arsehole celebs giving their kids stupid names.

Moon Unit: Frank Zappa, also father to Dweezil and Diva Muffin

Kal-El Coppola: Nicholas Cage (Kal-El is Superman's original birth name)

Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily: Paula Yates and Michael Hutchence

Bluebell Madonna: Geri Halliwell

Jermajesty: Jermaine Jackson

Sage Moonblood: Sylvester Stallone and Sasha Czack (also parents to Seargeoh)

Dick Trickle - Nascar racer.

Not famous but can I offer internet high-flyer Randy Bush?

There used to be a Willie Waddle that played for Lincoln City

James Bond The Third, appeared in The Red Hand Gang.

Going off topic but what film is this from? "Its a big shit sandwich and we're all going to have to take a bite".

I can't exactly comment on this, but I did see Jordan/Katie Price, the woman who called her daughter 'Princess half my mum's name, half my mother-in-law's name' take the pee out of Angelina Jolie calling her daughter Vivienne something. Specifically she thought it was too much of a mouthful and asked "can you imagine calling in them for their tea?". Hmmm. That would be the nanny's problem anyway.

Off-topicish, but when my daughter was born, the licensed photographer came around to take pictures of the babies on the ward for the proud mums.

"What's your baby's name?" she asked the woman at the end of the ward.
"Lily," she replied.
"Are you spelling that with one L or two?"
"Ooh, I don't know. Er, two."

How can you not know how you're going to spell your kid's name?

But that was nothing, the woman in the next bed to Mrs Bandage named her daughter Neveah. "That's an unusual name," the photographer said.
"Yeah, it's 'heaven' spelt backwards."

Er, no it isn't, I thought. It's 'haeven' spelt backwards.

Dyslexic, bad speller, failed to consider that there are different possible spellings, liked the sound of it but didn't give much thought to the spelling...

A friend of mine is called Candace, because her parents didn't know how to spell Candice.

"Mrs Brown, are you spelling that with one 'A' or two?"

:P

Er, no it isn't, I thought. It's 'haeven' spelt backwards.

"Mrs Bain..., are you spelling that with 'ham' or 'eme'?"

Oh yes. That's my kind of woman.

The weird thing is, I was sitting next to a bloke called Graeme the other day and somebody called him, and I looked up.

I'm spending far too much time on here.

Perry Nium must have the same every time he's sitting in the urology ward.
