First of all, I need to explain that I am not going to write about funny people who have names. What I am going to write about is people who have funny names. And now that you know that, you may be wondering where I got all these funny names, so I will tell you. I got them from Mom's little notebook, where she writes down funny names whenever she comes across them. These are not made-up names. These are names of real live people. Well, except that some of these people are dead, and Mom gets their names from their obituaries. But they were real live people before they were real dead people, which is the point I am trying to make.
Anyway, some names are funny because they mean something besides just being a name. Here are some names like that:
Purlie Gates
Roland Swim
Rowdy Offield
Joy Wrinkles
Florida Woods
Summer Woods
Linda Penny
Pearlie Winters
Harry Bush
Dusty Leer
Jess Wrigley
And other names just sound funny when you say them, like maybe they rhyme:
Verna May Day
Jill Hill
Ashley Lee
Renee Ray
Gary Bury
Larry Bury
Or they might sound just plain funny:
Journie Unique Price
Turner Rivenbark
Wrennie Dudding
Amelia Gravino Blatherwick
Kelley Kilcoin
Tardy Wulu
Blessing Butcher
Tausiflaur Butt
Woldemar Hellmuth
Deloda Hempenius
Rodrock Barn
Madonna Frysinger
Bester Leach
Well, okay, that's enough funny names for today. I hope you enjoyed them. Maybe another day I will tell you some more of them.
