Don't know if this's already been said but Brad Pitt's daughter...

Shiloh (pronounced 'Shilar') Pitt.

If you swap around the first syllables, then you get a heavily bullied child.

Hahahahaha!

Isn't there a singer who changed his name to The Edge?

I briefly knew a girl called Mary Christmas.

U2 guitarist I think?

I haven't read the rest of these posts but I think I have you all beaten.

At work today I reset a guys password who was called Mr Cockman - No word of a lie Cockman, I was wishing and hoping his first name was Harry.

Is that worse than Paul Mycock? We had one of those at school, and he got it real bad, poor sod.

Michael Hunt played in the same college cricket team as myself. I'm sure he's changed it by now as he was quite aware of the connotations.

Keeping to the cock theme, up until about a year ago I worked with a Jo Grocock. She was alright too. ;)

Oh, and I went to Primary school with a Richard Richards. He prefered Dick.

My mate's mum worked with Pauline Pooparts.

She thought it was French originally and asked for "Peu-par" but apparently she said "It's Poo-Parts".

Quality.

Dan

Mr Portsmouth

I don't know how Brangelina pronounces it, but I've never heard it pronounced any way but SHY-low here in the States. It's most commonly used in reference to the Civil War battle of the same name.

Still works, though.

One of the staff in my school's middle name is Richard. Last name Oram. Dick Oram. How we laughed.

That was my Head Master. Are you sure you're not a bit older than you make out?
