POLL: Who has the strangest sounding name in FIRST?

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! )

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.

Re: POLL: Who has the strangest sounding name in FIRST?

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

Re: POLL: Who has the strangest sounding name in FIRST?

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

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