    Chappers on radio one was ringing people in the USA with what he condsidered odd names.
    I nearly spat my coffee when he asked to speak to Anita Beaver.
    I am not qualified to give the above advice!

    The original point and click interface by
    Smith and Wesson.

    Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

          I used to work with a Richard Head. It was my first IT job in Tech Support whenever he used to answer the phone with
          "Hello Richard Head" there used to be either guffaws or silence for the first few seconds.

          Terrible for the poor bloke as he was a nice guy, ex-army so I suppose he must have got hardened to it.

            Oh yeah and also one of my best mate's friends names is Wayne King. Funnily enough he doesn't seem to get a very tough time over it.

            And at their school they had a teacher called Mr. Bates who of course
            was always referred to as Master Bates.

              I was at a meeting yesterday and apparently, in this company we have an IT Project Manager called.....

              Cyrus Contractor!!!!

              I had to question this as you do, but this is in fact his correct name and he is actually a contractor!!!!!

              Strange but very true....

                  I've heard of this guy!!! He's based in London I think. I belive that his middle name is "IT Project Manager"
