Probably not, as it's more than likely pronounced "manditch."

She had knew a good amount of English before arriving at Daytona Beach and her experiences on her own had helped her cope with the new culture.

[wdlove]

I would suspect with her size and athletic ability, no one would ever dare to tease her.

Ivana Mandic, coach Cox, did Bart Simpson write this article?

[ghporter]

Two things: the way her name is pronounced, there's probably no obvious pun, and secondly, she could probably pound any one of us into the floor without breaking a sweat, so my supposition is that she does NOT get teased about her name.

It reminds me of a name they would come up with for an Austin Powers movie.

I would like to share in the hilarity, but I suffer from the schism in our shared language. Please explain what makes Ginger's name hilarious.

Minge = vagina

A friend had a girlfriend who visited London once and was amazed at how funny her given name was. What was it? Randi, of course. THAT one I knew. Minge, huh? Hmmmmm. I'll keep that in mind.

No, it's funny because of the headline: Man-dick brings size, experience to Charlotte roster.

Bleh.

It rhymes with 'hinge'. For a fuller definition, you might wish to look at the excellent Viz's Profanisaurus.

That has to be one of the most unfortunate names ever

Today seems to be a day for funny names. A mate at work shouted across the room that a Miss Cochburn had rang for me. He, unfortunately, had not had the correct pronunciation explained to him (he just read it from the phone display).

[ghporter]

From an English perspective (colloquial, not language) Ms. Ginger Minge does indeed have an unfortunate name, but as is now obvious, quite a few of us on this side of the Pond, Ms. Minge and her family included, wouldn't have any clue that others would be amused.

There are a LOT of unfortunate names, and not just because of colloquialism, either. For example, there's an old family in Texas, the Hoggs. In one generation the parents named their daughters "Ima" and "Youra" respectively. No reports on whether there was an incident of patracide there.

Then there's Mr. Lear of "Gates-Learjet" fame. He named his son "Gay Cava." No jury in the world would convict Mr. G.C. Lear no matter WHAT he did to dad for that!

I have served with people who's first and last names were at odds with their military rank. For example, there was a major once with the last name of Sergeant.

THEN...Then there are the "cute" names. My wife works in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, and meets "different" people sometimes. There's a cultural "inside joke name" list that comes from actual names. Like Espn. Yes, that's an actual name. And one pronounced "ab sid ee" and spelled Abcde. Or what about (I am NOT making this up) the name pronounced "shi-thayd" but spelled Sh*thead. Anyone want to help me hold these parents down and beat them? We can't beat them senseless, because they obviously started that way. My wife and I worked long and hard to develop a good name for our son, one that had no "unfortunate" diminutives, whose initials did not spell or abbreviate anything "unfortunate" and that had some class. And THESE PEOPLE...

Ok, I've taken a few deep breaths, and I'm fine now.

There is a Chinese person living in New York City who is cursed with the name F u k You Lee.
This is true, no joke. Poor SOB.

[DeathMan]

I gotta package here for a Mr. Asswípe Johnson.

I feel more sorry for his friend, Lee.
