None of those words are offensive. Sometimes I feel like I'm living among neo-puritans in some parallel universe.

What would Batman bin Suparman say? Batman-bin...c55c56.jpg

When I lived in Alaska, some fellow a couple of grades above me almost ruined my life. My last name is "Kelly", and he used to rhyme insults with others. Well, one day on the bus he picked me out and started calling me "Smelly Kelly", and it caught on. But he didn't stop there. Adding my full name, which is John L Kelly, they came up with "John(potty)Latrine Smelly". And since I was the third in my family with that name, I was also the "Turd". It was horrible living with that, but the "Smelly Kelly" was the worst thing, because the bigger kids made light of it a lot...........until I was playing baseball one day, and an older kid started up, and I swung my bat at him and broke his arm. After that, no one ever called me that again. It was a learning experience. People can be very cruel, and sometimes you have to stand up and fight back, no matter the outcome. When I left Alaska, I left all the name calling behind.

at least once i had to make a change because a Native American last name is "not real"-wtf smh

Two popular surnames in Britain art Pratt and Burke. Both are words in their own right meaning "idiot".

How did you all survive school???

I have a number of Cracks in my family. When one of my cousins was running for political office, the opponent's slogan was "Just say NO to Crack". Coincidently, I used to work with a woman from the same town as the Cracks.. her last name was D**k.

Yeah, I sympathise with Richard Gaywood. I got called that at school.

The struggle is real!

I know a guy who owns a transportation company, his family name is "Bitte" - no problem in Germany where it means "Please"...but he is French and it is pronounced "Bite" which means d**k....

So my last name before marriage was Hiscock. My middle school best friend’s last name was Kiss. We got in trouble for standing beside each other and taking a pic of our basketball jerseys with our last names on them bc ya know “Kiss Hiscock”

This thread is probably long dead but, as someone wit the maiden name of "Hoes", this is all great! With the help of some really great parenting and strong sense of tradition and heritage, I grew up loving my last name (after I learned how to deal with it). I played along with all of the jokes in school from water hose, to panty hose to just plain, HOES! And came up with good comebacks for all of them. It gave me thicker skin, unique identity, comical breaks, and stronger connection my fellow Hoes! Problems with this name: I had to send a copy of my birth certificate to FB to get my name accepted. My brother has it worse though since he still has the name and now children with the name. He has had women ask him or his wife why they are so cruel to their daughters and allowing them to still have that name and why haven't they changed it for them?

My last name is Nigg.

This has happened on Facebook to my parents, as our last name is "Disco".

I've met a few people I've met in my life who had unfortunate names (so.e to the point I wondered if their parents secretly hated them). I swear all of these are real: - Charley Brown - Richard Head. - A guy with the last name of Sample in Navy boot camp (so he was called Seaman Sample). - Michael Hunt (who I sited on NEVER being called Mike, whether you used his last name or not). And the absolute worst ever? Harry Butte. I'm not kidding or making this up... As soon as he turned 18 he legally changed his last name.

This is funny

Cockburn! I had to LOL on that one 😂

Stop banning free speech and words how about that. Why do I have to send a id photo to Facebook to open an account.

I once worked with a man with the last name of Smallwood. Junior high school must have been rather difficult for him.

In Denmark F**k is a rare but real last name. It can also be spelled Fock. Better but not great:)

Once tried to name one of my Pokémon (a koffing) “fartbag” on Pokémon Go. I was denied my childishness, and tried “Tootbag” instead, but was still denied. Very confused, I tried to figure it out. “Fart” and “toot” were fine in their own, and so was “bag,” it was when they were paired that the name was blocked. Through the process of elimination, I found that the banned word within it was “tbag”. Which… fair.

when i saw benjamin button, i immediately thought of taylor swift- any other swifties?

A client for a firm I once worked for was called Rodney Ba$tard. This was in the days prior to the internet. I'm guessing he has problems logging in to quite a few websites. Another client was Mr D'eath and one woman's parents were cruel enough to call her Emma when her surname was Royds.

Used to work with a Richard Holder. Also saw on TV a poor bloke whose surname was "Null", making many computer entry screens reject it as a blank (although that can be down to poor programming).

Dickinson… D**k in son

My last name is Morehead. spelled exactly how it sounds. yeah it's fun
