Isn't that a suuuuper common last name though? If I heard "Fink" I would think of the last name, not the undesirable connotation...unlike say, the last name Butt or Dix or Hogg.

You could be right that it was common or that you don't think it is embarrassing but it always embarrassed her so I guess embarrassment is in the eye of the name-holder so to speak.

And my friend did not marry a guy whose last name was "Butt" - at least partially b/c of the name (maybe also b/c he insisted she take the name)

I had a urologist named Gross. Super nice guy.

High school - Dick Hardcock

I worked with a guy named Fleming Beaver.

I knew someone named Shilong.

I grew up with kids with the last name Condon. I once corrected my mom, saying "It's David CONDOM, Mom!" And we went round and round about it. Then I called the kid's mom Mrs. Condom. Mrs. Condon just said very curtly "CondoN, honey."

I don't know why I was so sure it was Condom (I was too young to know what that meant.

Dick Mountjoy was a California Republican.

Went to school with a girl who's last name was Cundick. I always found that unfortunate.
