I remember a guy telling me that whenever a new woman started at work they'd phone her up say, "Is Mike there?" She'd say she was new & didn't know. "Oh, ok. Can you just stand up and call out if anyone's seen Mike? Last name Hunt." "Has anyone seen Mike Hunt?" Cue applause from the whole room.
I used to work with a Michael Hunt. Brilliant guy and normally pretty chill, but woe betide anyone shortening it to it's diminutive form. I accidentally called him Mike once and he literally never responded to me again.
Loved the Simpsons with their early running gag of Bart phoning Moe's bar ..
Hello is there an Amanda there?
Uh .... I don't know, let me check.
Yeah the last name is Huggenkis.
OK ..... HEY!!! IS THERE AN AMANDA? .... AN AMANDA HUGGENKIS!!!???

I had an Uber passenger called McLovin the other week
Did u check his ID, make sure he's 18 ?
McLovin
This actually happened to someone I know. Which is why he signs his name 'Porl' instead of 'Paul'.

Go ahead. Change his destiny.
I went to school with a Dick Willy Alcock (pronounced all cock). He was an angry boy
I wonder whether Richard William Alcock uses internet boards like this.

My high school teacher was named Richard Face. That pretty much writes itself.
Or βIhave Nonameβ or βWhatis Yournameβ would probably cause some confusion.
