POLL: Who has the strangest sounding name in FIRST?

[Swan217]

A Semi-scientific study to see who everyone thinks has the strangest name in FIRST. If you think you have a stranger name to add, reply and explain why you think this person's name is strange.

EDIT: Guys, you can vote for more than one person!

NOTE: Winning names will (probably) win something special at IRI this year.

EDIT: I can't spell. The CORRECT spelling is WOODIE Flowers. (Sorry!:yikes: )

[Brandon Martus]

Team name, or a persons name?

[Swan217]

Team name, or a persons name?

You have to let me post the poll first :p

[Koko Ed]

I'd have to say Karthik. It is unique (and long).

[Billfred]

Mind if I throw my name into the hat? (Telemarketers hate me.)

--William Jullian Leverette, Jr.

[Ryan M.]

Oh, come on... how is Vblahblahblah stranger sounding than Kblahblahblahblahblahblah?? :D

I think Karthik will overcome eventually.

Hm... interesting poll.

[Amanda Morrison]

Ahem:


Lotus blossoms ARE woody flowers.
Woodie Flowers IS NOT Woody Flowers.


And I vote for Kanagasabapathy. Because not only can I spell it, I can SAY it. :)

I now present: How To Pronounce Karthik's Last Name.

To think about how it's spelled: ka-na-ga-sa-ba-pa-thy. Or, kuh-nuh-guh-suh-buh-puh-thee. ;)


To say it:
"Can of gas, have ap-athy." (I hate when they get all ambitious.)
"Kan-a-gas, ab ap-athy."
Kanagasabapathy!

See? Anyone can do it. :) I should have been an english teacher.

[Alex Pelan]

The Kang-something or other guy, definitely ;) .

[BandChick]

I'm gonna have to vote Karthik on this one. Really, only because I look at his name and my jaw drops. If by chance I get to actually meet him at Nats this year, I'm going to make him say it for me XD

[Dorienne]

Karthik! No doubts about it. I always look at his name and try to say it, but I've always gone: Kanagasabpidjfirejvirfg....Yeah.

Go Karthik! xD I'm making him say it for me, too, Sara. Take me along with you! <3

[Matt_Kaplan1902]

I voted for Karthik.
However, if we would have been voting for strangest person, Arefin woulda had my vote.





P.S. Just kidding, but not really :D

[Shu Song]

I'm kinda suprised my name isn't on here. Shu Song? come on...

[Elgin Clock]

Since I am among the Odd Named FIRSTers?

[D.J. Fluck]

Even though Im honored to make the list (for reasons which are quite obvious)

Karthik...hands down

[Lil' Lavery]

There is no match for Karthik.

[Arefin Bari]

hahaha... pretty funny to see a thread about this topic.

... I made the list.. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

my vote goes for Karthik. I am still trying to figure out how to pronounce his last name.


How did Bharat Nain, and Tom Bottiglieri missed the list?

[Mike Schroeder]

bengi has the coolest name in the world to say

elgin is weird and so is his name
Karithik "The Hair" Canofgashaveapathy's name give me a headache when i try to say it i nominate we all just start calling Karthik, "The Hair"
JVN's name rocks but then agian so doesn anyone's who has a hyphen in it :p
woodie flowers always makes the rookie freshmen chuckle when they first hear it....

so my vote goes to Bengi, "The Hair" and Woodie

[Elgin Clock]

elgin is weird and so is his name

:p :D :cool:

[shyra1353]

Karthik .. looking at your last name .. I'm wondering how you ever got your library card when you were a kid ... you know where you have to write your full name in a box .. did it even fit? or did they make special allowances for you?
