This one had me in stitches. Great thread here and just goes to show you that when you think your name might be just a bit strange, think what it could have been .

There was a guys name in S. Florida at a Publix Grocery Store whose first name was ABEER and his last name was Phoru. Some names are just funnier than others.

A couple great businesses near me in my youth....A guy named A.B. Dick had a construction company named "A.B. Dick Erectors".

Two brothers, Bill and Phil Enis, had used car dealerships on the same stretch of road. Phil's sign said "P. Enis Used Cars".
