The Phuc thing got my thinking. My dad is a sales trainer (he teaches people how to sell stuff) and he has classes all the time. People get flown in from China and Japan and what have you all the time, he's used to that...But this one time they had a Norweigan (SP?) class and one guy (my dad says he was like the class clown) was named Geicgh (or something similar). Pronounced: Geek. I understand cultural differences and whatever, but my poor dad said he couldn't bear saying the guy's name without almost laughing. I can't say I wouldn't do the same.
ETA: Friend of mine has a daughter named Diamond. Oy.
