One of the lesser-known facts about working in human resources is that if you like funny names, you'll never lack for them, especially if (like me) you're on the recruitment side of things.

We once had an employee whose first name was "Oranganilla".
My favorite combination name was "Cortrell Wigglesworth."

I could go on, but I need to be applying for a new job now having given up my secret. :)
