I found someone in our user database with the name “Deekshita Anusri”. I then imagined the poor soul at the border who had to read that name in front of the person named so.

I’d love to hear some stories about times something like this actually happened.

    First day in the dorms at college I see a name tag next to a door that says “Shithead” and thought what a mean joke to play! Turns out her name was shi-thee-ad. Rest of the year she was Thea.

    Also worked with a woman named “Noname” (no-nam-ay) and apparently that gave her all sorts of trouble on official forms.

        Of all the videos I’ve ever seen, that was definitely one of them.

        I have no idea what I just watched, but I would date her.

      Na-a.

      That’s the made up kevinist name my friend’s mom had to deal with.

      It’s pronounced similarly to ‘Natasha’.

      There are people with the last name Null and they tend to have issues with poorly written applications too.

        I heard about a guy who got a custom license plate of “NULL” and he ended up getting assigned a ton of parking/speeding tickets for every case where the ANPR system failed to read the plates.
