I knew a guy named Richard Noes once.  He went by "Dick".

My mother had a friend named Imagene Hoare.  She went by "Ima"

I kid you not.

"Ralph Hymen"

I didn't think I'd be able to add on to the bizarreness of this conversation but come to think of it, my Dermatologist's name is Dr. Scales.

We have a store called "Liquor Box." They sell t-shirts that say, "I went down to Liquor Box."

::) Perhaps I will get a T-shirt myself.  >:D

I was in a military unit (US Marine Air wing, no less,)  where there was a Quick, a Swift, a Little, a Small, A Cummings and a Goings -- all six personnel in the same unit at the same time (swear to god and hope to die...)

I've met Ralph Hyman. He's a very good therapist. Just a little scary neighborhood... Little Rock isn't that safe.

About ten years ago I had a kidney stone, and was referred to a urologist in Tampa: Dr. Alden Cockburn.

(BTW, he pronounces it "Coburn")!

A long-ago Governor of Texas, James Hogg (for whom Hogg county was named) had a daughter named Ima. Despite her unfortunate name, she became a highly respected philanthropist.

There is a doctor here who has his full name on plague - Dr Ronald McDonald.  He's pretty popular. :)
Some names are abit unfortunate, like we've got a pediatrician called Dr Slaughter. He's great but the name is sorta off putting though. lol

Remember the guy who used to drive in Nascar named Dick Trickle?  I think I would have changed my name.

My current dentist is "Dennis Miller".  I haven't had the gall to tease him about it or ask him to tell a joke.

I once bought a parcel of land from a guy that was a lawyer. His name was I.M. Crook
This was not a joke. It was really the guy's name and I had to write the check payable to that name.

I once flew on a plane where the captain introduced himself, "This is Captain Kirk and we won't be beaming anyone anywhere today, but we do hope you have a pleasant flight"
