All of those.

I had a neighbor with the last name Assman... I babysat for them a few times and they were constantly getting prank phone calls.

I had a teacher in middle school named Mrs. Hardick - pronounced "Hard Dick." You can imagine what fun a room full of 13 year-olds had with that name. To this day I wonder why that poor woman didn't just keep her maiden name when she married Mr. Hardick.

In college I had a summer office job opening and preparing the claims and related mail for a dental insurer. One day we received a letter from the Smelley family notifying us that an entire large branch of the Smelley clan has legally changed their surname to Shelley.

Good for them, I thought. I couldn’t answer the poll here because I would adamantly change at least half of these.

Slutzky is a great stage name if you're a Jewish porn star, but like all of these is not one you want to have foisted upon you.

I’d carry the name Thigpen with pride.

Ima Hogg.

She bore the name with great dignity and patience and had many opportunities to do so. She died (as the result of a cab accident) at the age of 93 while vacationing in London. The old girl never married and had style and a lot of oil money, which I imagine helped her deal with her name.

Fagiola is Italian for "bean."

It's pronounce "fah-`jow-la," idiot.

Making fun of the name wouldn't last long.

I knew someone whose last name was Fagman. Seriously. At least change the spelling - felt so sorry for his son.

Remember Castro Convertibles? Sofa beds, lots of TV and print ads in the ‘50s and ‘60s, stores all over? The founder was Italian.

But fearing that association with the name would be bad for business, the Castros who owned the company supposedly offered Fidel a million 1959 dollars to change [italic]his[/italic] name.

Geographic, not personal, but why did they name it Little Dix Bay?

The Rockefellers built the resort. It’s a Rosewood now, but surely they got it back then.
