'My Corduroyed Life' - Mark A's Journal

10th April, 2006. 6:14 pm. Another Collection of Bad Names

They just keep on coming…

Working with International students, you get many unpronounceable names, many silly names such as Ali Ali or Mohamed Mohamed, you also get some daft ‘English names’ from Chinese students such as Albert, Doris, and Queeny. Beyond this you get many amusing names that when pronounced in English, they unfortunately and amusingly sound rude or silly. I’ve posted a fair few posts like this now, and they can be found dotting around every few months on this blog.

Here are the latest clangers:

Ashraf Fanis – Saudi Arabia
Mr Mafani – Pakistan
Liam Cuntis – Northern Ireland
Rehab Mahmoud – Libya



Have fun,

Current mood: amused.
