Whenever I see that guy's name, I think, "marezy dotes and dozey dotes and little ezodisy".  :P

I keep reading Dundonnell as "Dunnellon" (a town near where I live).

Best not even to start on The Unrepentant Pelleastrian. Pedestrian is the most innocent one that springs to mind, but there are others, oh yes...

Plenty of times. And not just here, in GMG.

donaldopato - donaldpotato

Oh.  :-[

And there's vandermelon.

aquariuswb right
aquariusweb wrong

Sometimes, the name is just so long and complex to read at a glance that I don't bother remembering them at all. For example, I end up reading one of them as lukandnfbvjlldf.  :D
