I actually heard that (repeatedly) at an airport about 3 years ago. Oh, man, some people are sooo naive! :\

I used to play with a woman who used "Sandy Beach". Her first name really was Sandy. I asked her why she used "Beach" and she said "Because I am"!

That was around the time that I started using "Bobby Lee Quasar". According to the dictionary, a quasar is "a radioactive stellar object". I sorta liked that notion, and I figured that nobody would mistake Quasar for a real last name. Wrong! An interview in print referred to me as "Mr. Quasar". :P :oops:

I knew a guy who went by "Les Tarr" and called his band "The MFT's". You have to be a certain age to get that one.

I held back, but since there's now been a similar suggestion--

Jack Inhoff

There's a disc jockey around here called Justin Case. Used to be band called Slim Chance and the Survivors. We started to name our band Broken Wind, but the wives wouldn't go for it.

I kinda like "Glayds Kanby." I think that might be the best "non-inuendo" name I've come up with. If I was a female singer, I think I'd be Glayds Kanby.

If you Google "Hugh G. Rection" or similar you can find thousands of amusing names. They even have musician lists for the whole band: i.e. background singer E. Norma Stitts, etc etc.

There are two families in this town with what I consider very unfortunate last names:

Dikauff, and Dikaut. Both German I think. I guess if I had that Dikauff name, I'd have called my son Issy A.

Talk about unfortunate, there was a politician around in the 1980's by the name of Richard Phelan. That last name was pronounced, "faylin."
