When Fredo and I are 'on the road' we play games to keep us occupied - One of these is "Famous People With Names Like Industrial Diseases" For instance.....

Boxcar Willy
Labi Siffre
Vitas Gerulaitas
Rufus Thomas (VD prevalent among thatchers & tilers)
Little Richard

Any more??

George W Bush sure sounds contagious!

You should check out the Cornwall County Records Office website. It has a section called silly names. These have been taken from documents they hold and some of the names are brilliant.

I guess John Knoblock would have to be philosophical

I have come across (& have the business cards to prove it) Wayne K King (NZ) and Jaques Ardon (France) come to think of it there is the well respected actress in France - Fanny Ardon - but that is possibly a funnier in the UK dielect.
