Player’s names that make you laugh.

Childish, but I almost always smile or chuckle when a commentator says Etienne Capoue’s name.
I always used to find the way Stuart Hall said Michel Vonk’s name funny as well, for some reason.
Any others?

Watched yesterday's match on a Brazilian stream.
They must've mentioned Welbeck thirty times before he came on.
I know little Portuguese, but it struck me that they liked saying his name.
It bit like English commentators seemed to like saying Diouf a few years back.

Paulista's real name is interesting, parents not hippys at all

Though I think the NFL might have football beat generally.
My team has a Lil'Jordan Humphrey and a Jacquizz Rodgers in their training camp right now.

i remember a Southampton player called David Puckett.
Bill Remfry was always very careful to accentuate the "P" in his surname, when announcing the line ups.

Very true.
Though the impact for me was reduced because I had a friend with that name.

I am liking WILLOCK of Arsenal at the moment
If his nickname isn’t PILLOCK it should be.
Was always disappointed Nortei NORTY of Chelsea didn’t play more.

If we want to expand to baseball, as per FC, there was s coach, I think, that had the same surname but was called Russell or Rusty.
You got Dick Trickle, famous NASCAR, again I think, guy.
