Once again all names listed are real (as far as I can tell)

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

You know that some of these names are more or less normal for the cultures that the people who have them are from, right?

You try telling that to the website I took this off of.


Also, In what culture are names like Fire Penguin Disco Panda, Knight Jedi I, Kash Register, Marijuana Pepsi Sawer acceptable?

Let me hear the hate, Grumps... Let's hear all the hate come out.

What cultures are these?

Furthermore, Tokyo Sexwale's name is not actually Tokyo. It's Gabriel. And the x is silent.

Furthermore, Tokyo Sexwale's name is not actually Tokyo. It's Gabriel. And the x is silent.

At first I thought the ridiculous name in that one was "Human Settlment."

Why does it say Tokyo?

[Cranberry]

Beezow Doo-Doo ZopittyBop-Bop-Bop is by far the best ^^

He's a South African politician. I believe he got the nickname because he did karate as a child.

For the record the website in question is Ebaumsworld .com (and yes I probably should have mentioned that sooner)

[Hatman 🍁]

Where's Russ Powers Oklahoma ?

[angus]

Nice!  I'll have to share this with my son when he gets home from school.  He loves this stuff. 

A seminal moment, actually.  I don't think I've ever shared any of this forum tripe with my family.

Also, don't forget the infamous porn star Miles Long in your next list.

Well, Tokyo Sexwale, for one, considering that I knew how it was pronounced and that Tokyo was a nickname. Batman bin Suparman as well is...an unusual and I'd imagine possibly deliberate juxtaposition, but the names individually are not that unusual (there's a Malaysian football player named Rusdi Suparman, for instance).

Most of the rest are ridiculous, yeah. And Dick Trickle and Dick Power presumably brought it on themselves (or had it brought on them as children and never bothered to correct for it).

NYE knows exactly what he's doing.

The chive did this last week. Basically all of these photos.

[DemPGH]

LOL, some of those are just too outrageous. I remember Dick Trickle, though. Ha!

I was reading recently about how a really bizarre or supremely odd name can hurt you on the job market, especially if you're applying for an actual career job or management. Batman bin Suparman on a cover letter? OMG!

Anybody remember Dick Armey? From Texas to boot! LOL!

Ugh, seriously?  That site was stealing content from other sites long before buzzfeed and chive were doing it.

What makes you think any of this is okay to do here?

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Fire Penguin Disco Panda is a perfectly good, legitimate name. And I believe the young boy's name is Jed I. Knight.

Thuggish... I don't recall acting thuggish per-say, but I suppose what I might define as completely innocent posting could thuggish to someone else...

[Napoleon]

My favorites are Batman bin Suparman (suparman I love it lol), Charity Beaver and Am'az'in Blackman (complete with unnecessary apostrophes)

It's per se - Latin for "in and of itself".
