Actual insured's names I have come across at work, from memory:

Misty Thwing
Misty Organ (had to be a legal name change; she was an exotic dancer)
Kega Schaefer

I handled claims for the Easy Method Driving School. A lot of claims.



(this is a news photo, not from my files)

The commercial account that I saw the most claims from (including the most fatalities), was for the Convent of the Sisters of St. Joseph. They had a fleet of cars, trucks and vans, and weren't picky about whether or not anyone had a driver's license, or even knew how to drive. It was rarely a nun at the wheel, but whoever it was, they were usually unlicensed.

Oh yeah, one of my jobs had someone named that working there too. They used the same licensed software as me on a computer cluster I was on, I'd often look up who was using up the license I wanted, and sure enough, ol' dikshit was at it again :arghfist:

Any idea why? I went searching but got distracted and now can't be arsed to put more effort in.

EDIT: is it cause Elbert Henry Gary employed a lot of immigrants and they named their children after him?

Close - Frank Cooper changed his first name to Gary based on the suggestion of his agent who lived in Gary, Indiana. As his acting career took off so did the popularity of the name.

I went to school with a family of amazing names. My peer was Pepci (that spelling is correct), my older brother's peer was Taco, and their younger brother was Apple Joe. Their mom was Chili (dad was the oddball out with a normie name). They had some cousins with funny names too, I think a Dentyne and Kauffee (might have the spelling wrong on those, but I'm pretty sure the coffee one was at least spelled with a k).

That's my sister's current middle name, but to be fair to my parents it's only because she changed it a few years back

There was a parent at my school named Candy Sprinkle.

She was on her second marriage and took his name.

In my banking days, we had two sisters who were customers. Misty Dawn and Rainy Dae.
