10 More Unfortunately Named People on the Internets

No doubt about it, you people have as juvenile a sense of humor as we do. Case and point: The success of our post on The 10 Most Unfortunately Named People on the Internets, which, despite being published over a year ago, continues to be one of the most popular posts on the site. And just like those Hollywood film studios when they find a hit, we decided it was time for a far inferior sequel. Some of the folks below were inspired by comments left on the first post, while others were found via old fashioned research. But all 10 have one thing in common, they all carry with them the burden of having a really unfortunate name.

Stef Craps
This dude is a postdoctoral research fellow at the Flemish Research Council whose name has the awesome distinction of being a full sentence. FYI, Stef also meditates, masturbates and sharts.

Dr. Jack Kanoff
We don’t kid when we say there’s actually a urologist named Dr. Alden Cockburn and an OBGYN named Dr. Harry Beaver. But our award for the most unfortunately named doc on the internet has to go to this unfortunately named pulmanologist. Even better is the part of his listing that asks, “Are you Jack Kanoff?” Why yes we are!

Tobin Buttram
Who should you call when you need a kickass musical composition for your video game? Tobin Buttram, an accomplished guitarist who has scored several games as well as played behind alongside Robert Fripp.

Andrew Fagg
While we don’t know if this computer science researcher is gay, one thing’s for sure: He’s a Fagg.

Anita Dick
Hoping nobody would notice her unusual name, Anita Dick added her middle initial to her online resume just to be safe.

Wang Liqin
It’s no wonder a guy with this unfortunate name is good at handling balls. Make that great. He’s an Olympic table tennis champ.

Emma Royd
Poor Emma Royd. Her co-workers kept insisting she was a pain in the ass, but she could never understand why.

Richard Face
Australians were less shocked by the political trickery of Richard Face than they were of other long term parliament members. After all, the recipe was right there in his name.

Drew Peacock
True story: It wasn’t until Russell Peacock googled his newborn son’s name looking for famous namesakes that he realized his faux pas.

Batman Bin Suparman
Strangely, this kid’s favorite comic book character is Spider-man.
