kind of reminds me of the old Dr. Seuss book.

I do not want it on a train
I do not want it on a plane
I do not like it Sam I am
I will not eat that....with ham

Very successful classic car dealer here (12cyl Packards especially) named Tom Crook. He made his fortune in regular cars prior, and would snag classics on trade and whatnot. Eventually sold the regular gig, and used his collection to start the classic car operation.

Literally being a "Crook" doesn't seem to be a hinderance to success in auto sales. I'd argue it does a lot for name recognition and referrals, if only because people remember if they were happy buying their car from a "crook" (or krook).

On another note, I went to college with a guy named Richard Kisser.....even the professers ragged on him. (No, we weren't close...)

I went to school with a Pete Zipalla.
He later went on to open his own Italian eatery.
He always asked me,"Howza come youa no avist ah"? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Since this thread has been diverted to funny names, I have an old golf buddy that is named - Harry Beavers. A few years ago he started listing his name in the phone book as only H. Beavers.

There is a paint & body shop in my hometown called Crook's Paint & Body. Their slogan is WITH A NAME LIKE CROOK YOU HAVE TO BE GOOD.
