I worked in a call center, wher it was policyo call the customers by name to form 'raport'....I took great relish when I got a customer whose name was Phuc Mi.....

iniatially I pronounced it "fook", but he corrected me.....he said it was pronounced with a hard U...."fuk".....so I took great relish throughout the conversation, loudly and proudly, saying "fuk me!".....the floor manager was pushing a kitten out of his arse by the time he got to my work station...it was classic. No, it was legendary. :lol:
 
I had a mate at school his name was Mathew Hunt When asked he would tell the teachers his name was
"Isacc Hunt sir, Isacc Hunt"
"Well, Isacc Hunt " the teaher would start his rant
Then Mathew would but in and say
"Im sorry to hear that sir" or "Is that so"
I dont think any of them caught on :p
