What are some of the best name combinations you came across while serving?

At Ft. Bliss there's a sign for a building who's OIC is MAJ Nguyen

This is not a military but I had an urologist named Dr.  Cockburn.  He was  quick to state that it is pronounced as Co - burn.

Had a buddy named Holopeter but we just called him ED - short for Empty Dick.
Couple years later, had a LCpl whose first name was Little-bear, he said his parents were hippies

In basic we had a PVT Sargent, and a Pfc Lieutenant

We had a NCO in the motor pool who's last name was slaughter. Sergeant slaughter was a GI Joe character. I thought that was cool

Met a PVT2 Army on Ft Eustis, Private Army got all kinds of ribbing. Then went on to meet a LT Woody, everyone, including enlisted, kept asking him how he wanted to be addressed when he made O-4

The two best names I have seen are SGT Sergeant while stationed in Korea and SFC Grate, Guy.

My friend Sergeant Colonel.

When I checked into my first unit in the Fleet, I was in the OPS office getting things squared away with the training Officer.

As I was standing there his SNCOIC walked by and I saw his name tape.

GySgt. Deathrage.

He actually checked out about 3 months later to go to PI. Can you imagine showing up to PI and your Senior Drill Instructor is name Gunny Deathrage? And man, he looked the part too!

When I checked into TBS at Quantico, the very first day we had an orientation class. Before hand we were all out in the main hallway just milling about smartly, and this guy walks by me with his name tape messed up.

I stopped him because I figured he must not know, otherwise why would he be there with a messed up name tape.

I stopped him quietly and said "Hey man. They messed up your name ta..."

I couldn't even get it out of my mouth before he raised his hand to stop me talking and said: "I know, I know. It isn't messed up. That's my name."

You all had to be there when I first met 2ndLt. Marine, Joseph L. US Marines.

Joe Marine. He always had something to start a conversation with though!

COL Battle - we all still call him MAJ Battle. Also had a Air Force doc - last name was Doktor pronounced doctor. I have an appointment with Dr. Doktor.

Thanksgiving 2005, I went to the dining facility at COB Speicher (Tikrit, IZ) to eat at the exact same table, there sat ...drumroll...
- Sergeant Slaughter (me)
- CPT Morgan
- MAJ Blessings (who was the Division Chaplain for 42ID)

I came across a SGT Titsworth, male type.

I worked with a MSG Majors a few years back. She confuse the hell out of people when she answered the phone. I also saw a SGT Faggot on an IRR roster I definitely understand why he wanted to get out.

Also knew a Miltech by the name of Mr. Anger (pronounced Anjer).

When I was promoted to Sergeant, folks started having trouble saying "Sergeant Schwager." It's not that hard, but it was kind of embarrassing when you'd be standing in formation and they'd call your name and screw it up. LOL

We had a "Major Dick" on 22 MEU float. Before the float was over he got promoted to LtCol. In reality, he was a pretty cool guy and didn't live up to his namesake.

An Engineer officer with the last name Dozer

I just saw a Major Payne yesterday at the 6th mp co.

SFC Rich Carey - Sgt Major would be a cool name! Imagine TI's confusion? Can't him call Major or SGM. lol Respect My Awww thority!
