My bio teachers last name was "MoCock." His wife's first name is "Love."We just called him,"Mr. Mo". I think it's crazy she took his name, lmao.

I know a girl named Paige that married a man with the last name Page.

We call her Page 2. It’s also fun when they disagree and I ask if they can get on the same page.

I have a friend named Blair who married a man with the last name Blair. We call her "Blair Squared" and she hates it.

At that point I’d just go full legal mononym like Cher and Teller.

I know a couple with the same name (one masculine one feminine version). Their names can both be shortened to "little bear". I will never stop calling them collectively "Haribo"

A buddy of mine dated a girl in high school that had the feminine version of his name and they had the same last name (no relation, but we gave him shit anyway).

I'm sad we gave him so much shit because that was the coolest person he dated over the next two decades. He agrees that she should have been his first wife and he should have hyphenated his last name.

Michał and Michalina?

I had a job in data management where I came across someone whose name is Wandaholmes Holmes.

My parents know a lady names Kelly who married a man with the last name Kelley. Kelly Kelley.

Paige Davis married Patrick Page but did not take his last name.

[–] __ghost__@lemmy.ml 16 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I used to have a manager named Kelly who had recently divorced a man with the last name Kelly

Kelly Kelly

Still makes me laugh

was she ever on ECW by chance?

[–] __ghost__@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Google says that's a wrestling circuit so no

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 2 points 5 days ago

there was a wrestler on ECW also named Kelly Kelly

Please tell me they double barreled it

I kept my name when I got married but I probably would have changed my name if I was her.

Yeah, 2015 (kind of). How's the couch? Apparently, Mr. Bojangles is still alive. I'm on the couch too, no judgment lol. Also, he's really kind if you hit him up. PM me. I don't want to get doxxed. I'm not sure if that means anything to you. If you know me, you can look at my username and know who I am. I say some pretty radical stuff on lemmy, so I'd prefer to keep my cards to my chest.

[–] couch1potato@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 5 days ago

Nah lol. 2005 here, i wont know you. Small world though. Mr mo was new the year I took his class. For sure on the doxxing.

Also, don't treat lemmy any different than any other site. Nobody is above being subpoenad and people hosting these instances would be, if anything, more susceptible and more pliable to law enforcement.
