Anyhoo, one time I worked in an office doing admin and there was a customer who had that place name as their surname. I kid you not. There were other surnames as well which I can't mention but I'm thankful I never took a call from one of those so-named, especially since call protocol involved addressing the customer by name.

I love this thread. It's my favourite! And we should definitely have spotted dick in game. It's such a yummy iconic dessert!
Heh, love it. And it reminds me of a colleague when I worked in a call centre where a customer had to correct his pronunciation of her surname after she was slightly offended, "It's Coburn, it's pronounced Coburn". But of course the spelling had 2 hard consonants extra.
