I say Dick Butkus, just too obvious for mockery.

My uncle Richard some how got the nickname "Big Dick."

I knew a kid back in Little League days who had the last name Gaylor (yes, I spelled it right). Poor guy got razzed bad. I mean, I don't even remember his first name, because nobody used it.

There's also a guy here at my college named Franklin Dippy. That's just asking for it.

There was someone who used to produce Ground Force called Gay Search. But out of those, the weiner name, i mean, 2 of the most shameworthy syllables ever to make a name.

In addition, i'm planning on calling one of my kids wee-wee-poo-poo-face-boy. 8)

Sadly enough there was actually a person named "Mike Hunt" at my former highschool.
Devolution is quite as natural as evolution, and may be just as pleasing, or even a good deal more pleasing, to God. If the average man is made in God's image, then a man such as Beethoven or Aristotle is plainly superior to God, and so God may be jealous of him, and eager to see his superiority perish with his bodily frame.

Incidentally, my last name is Estes, and a lot of people pronounce the second e long, which leads to my last name rhyming with "Testes." So my nickname became "Testes" at first, and later simply "Testicle." Middle school was not a very pleasant experience for me, as I'm sure you can imagine.

The best part was the look on people's faces when they realized what my last name rhymed with. They thought they were just about the most clever folks in the world, and told everyone they knew.

There was that famous roman: Bigus Dickus and his wife Incontinentia Buttocks. That's pretty embarrassing ;)

You thinks estes is bad? Try having the last name Klix (Mine) Clits, klutz, And, in my junior year, the kicker:

Silly Klix, Dicks are for chicks!

By then I was mature enough to see the humor and LMAO at it.

Yes.. there's a young girl with that name somewhere in our state, except the mother actually spelled it Shithead.

Another woman had to be talked out of the 'pretty-sounding' name she picked out: Gonherrhea.

Demiurge wrote:Dick Butkus. Not only does it have "dick" and "butt," it can also be altered to "Buttkiss." Which is vaguely insulting, I guess.
I imagine that his name and how people used it while he was growning up was some of the motivation behind him becoming an all American (for Illinois) and later Hall of Fame (Da Bears) linebacker. :)

He's who I think of when anyone says "the Monsters of the Midway".
