I recently found out, to my dismay, that my last name translates directly to "rectum" or "anus" from Slovak. Luckily, I'll be on the other end of the GI tract. Still takes away some of my pride in my Slovak ancestors, though.

There's a girl in my class whose name translates to "******ed" in Greek. 🙂

Who is this?

And is that translation appropriate? 🙂

I work at a pharmacy and I saw a prescription with the name Dr. Frogge at the bottom. I thought it was hilarious, but then I learned it was pronounced, Froag.

 

[mokopharmd]

[scrupulous79]

Dr. Hardick

a student asked him if anyone ever made fun of him because of his name when he was a kid, and he said with a straight face "why would anyone do that?"

 

[pushinepi2]

I don't think I've seen these before:

Dr. Fingerer: Pediatrician
Dr. Dickgraber: PharmD

Less funny but also interesting: I once had a pediatric allergist named Moshe David Krayanek, MD. He used to confuse the crap out of me because of the sign on his door:

M.D. Krayanek, M.D.

[docjolly]

When I volunteered @ in a local emergency room, one of the PGYI EM residents had the very cute name of Dr. Sunshine 😎

Also, one of the Adcom members @ Mt. Sinai is named Dr. Butts (pediatrician).

 

[Drugtech]

I occasionally see scripts at work from an out of town doc named Dr. Shugar. If I remember correctly he is an opthalmologist. He should have went into endocrinology so he could have been a diabetes specialist 😀

Ah man! that was good. I'm Asian and will be going to a DO school so I'll memorize that one and go tell people!

 

[Ombatay]

My father's surgeon was named Dr. Payne. It's not as funny written out, but when you're nervous about the procedure to begin with, having your surgeon walk in and say "Hi my name is Dr. Pain and I'll be operating on you" can be a bit nerve wracking =P.

 

[dradams]

One of my classmates' last name is Love so he will be Dr. Love in about 3 more years.

 

[theunc31]

I knew a dentist named Dr. Payne. License plate: Paynles I thought it was kinda funny.

 

[Beau Geste]

NO joke!

I saw a gynecologist in my teens named Dr. Klam. He has since passed away from a heart attack, but his name stays with me!

 

[Medic813]

We have a local FP/OB-Gyn named Dr. Clapp!

 

[djnels01]

We have a local FP/OB-Gyn named Dr. Clapp!

The clinic that I work at has an Ob/Gyn Doc that volunteers once a month named Dr. Yeast!

It's pronounced YAY-st (he insists) but it's just too funny to think about his being destined to be an Ob/Gyn from birth...

 

[ShyRem]

Dr. Rashleigh, derm

True story.

 

[redskymedic]

Henry Bone III - one of the best osteoporosis specialists in Michigan.

 

[matteaton81]

The former chief of our local ER was named Joseph Obebe (pronounced "oh baby", lol).

 

[ambernikel]

Dr. Adcock (gynecologist). My friend went to him through a referral and didn't really know the name so she asked the office girl to spell it for her. She could hardly contain herself.

 

[DropkickMurphy]

The chief of one of our ER's locally is named Dr. Slaughter. We also have a Dr. Leach ("Not spelled like the blood sucking parasite" to quote him)

 

[NoOneKnows]

One of the docs I was rotating with told me about a doctor Hugh Dick who, of course, was a urologist

not kidding

 

[Scottish Chap]

I can add two. Dr. Assman, whose papers I read, is a cardiologist and I also know and intern called Richard (Dick) Quick. 👍

 

[DrBowtie]

Maybe a long arduous labor was the culprit! 😉

 

[PlasticMan]

I've heard an advertisement on the radio many times for "Dr. Steven Whitehead, Dermatologist." !!

 

[CatsandCradles]

Dr. Clearville. Pronouced "clear view"

Now it would be neat if she was an opthamalogist, but she's a pediatric ENT.

 

[cyclohexanol]

Best ever:

Dr. Spencer B Gay

If your last name is "Gay" and your middle initial is "B", why wouldn't you just omit the "B".. talk about adding insult to injury...

 

[DORocksMySocks]

Dr. Pons - Endo.

He works up here in MN

 

[TPBC]

I knew a dentist named Dr. Payne. License plate: Paynles I thought it was kinda funny.

It would be cool if his first name was "Les"

 

[passthebiscuits]

Do you think Dr. Sinn is funny? I guess it would be worse if he were a preacher, right?
