I used to see funny names all the time in a job I had many years ago. The wierdest one was 24 letters long - and I had to call ask for that person by name

OK, not hard, Peter is M, Jenny is F. Well not so much. This person had one of those indian names so you could not tell if it was a boy or a girl. You would also think that their names are so different they would be fairly easy to isolate. I have about 100 Mukherjee's that work in my company. Have fun finding the right one. Not that I'm stereotypical but it's like trying to find the right Chin in a Chinese phonebook.
