    Default What's the strangest surname/last name you've come across?

    What is the strangest, funniest, or weirdest last name that you've seen in your language and region?

    I've met a guy once with the name 'Shawn Drinkwater', which I thought was a bit strange and comical. Other than that I can't think of any names that have made such an impact in my memory.

    Spottedcrow.

    And this is not THAT funny but I still get a kick out of the Sicilian surname Spiteri. It's just funny to say out loud.

    I was going through financial records at work, and saw a recent credit card transaction that had gone through. The name on the card read "I. M. FISHBERG"

    I nearly pissed myself.

    One of my close friend's name is literally Perfect. His full name is Alejandro Perfecto- quite interesting in my opinion.
