35 Hilarious Times People Got Confused With Names And Made Themselves Look Dumb

By far my favourite on this thread, I love it. Bless her heart! My Nan has her own words for lots of things, and if she can't say someone's name she'll use one that she thinks sounds similar. My best friend of 22 years is called Kirstyn, Nan has always called her Christine..

That's the BEST! 🤣

Jesus, son of Harold. Sounds right to me

She's not wrong.

Beyond dumb!

Do you suppose his wife's name is Olive?

🤣 oh no

OMG THAT is hilarious - I needed a good wake up laugh this morning. If that was me I would've been laughing so hard they wouldn't have been able to draw blood

Oh how fun that would have been to explain

I wants.

My daughter accidentally wrote some erotica in third grade last year. She uses talk-to-text and has a very squeaky voice. She began a reading response with "it was jeremy's..." but the program heard "penis gummies". I'm glad I checked her homework that day before she submitted it (I didn't always). I did tell her teacher later because it was too funny not to share and also as a warning that talk-to-text does not always hear my daughter correctly.

Hahaha!!! At least you tried!!

As opposed to the measuring I

Oh lord..

My favourite YT gamer is Jesse C*x. And bet they will censor out the surname on BP. EDIT: Damn this ridiculous censorship. Anyway, if anyone likes to watch/listen to game playthroughs, I do recommend Jesse C0x, or at least his earlier work.

Or More Maddie?

She should really have a doctor take a look at that

Ouch.

Does the name 'Paul' not exist in the USA? How different is the pronunciation? I mean, Paul Walker was from California. EDIT: Guys, please stop arguing...

Lol .. my daughter was four and she was telling me her arm saws hurt . It took me a bit and then I realized she meant her shoulder blades !

My son's first word was "gen-go" (gentle) for much the same reason 😃

You can tell by the way i stand at the dock I'm a Woman's man it's time to dock. . .

Same difference

"oh yeah, she's a taxidermy"

Must be a lot of dialogue about skin colour in that 5 yo’s life.

Funky Town is the "Taco Body" song thanks to when my son was a toddler. (I will now and forever hear taco body instead of talk about it...)

He used to be called Graype but one day he stayed out in the sun too long.

Like Joe Fish better

Like the twins Pete and Repeat

Reminds me of the time my cousin (early 20s) had missed a phone call from a friend to announce she'd had her baby. Her teenage brother took the call instead -- and when he was informing his sister of the news, of course she asked, "What did they name the baby?" The brother replied, "I dunno. Something like May I Have A Cookie." The baby's name was Mahalia Corrine.

I know a girl named Landrey and a few of my friends call her Laundry instead. They used to joke about us being in a lesbian relationship bc they know I hate jokes like that and they would say "Did you do Laundry last night?"

What did you put on her Valentine, though???

Was she very tall and hairy

Ordinary Audrey

LMAO! Be careful what you say in front of your children.

yes mah son very amazing

🐑🐏

Years???

Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name..

My friend Erin's dad always called marigolds "eringolds" while she was growing up, so sweet.

I actually do know someone whose first name is Princess, so it's not a crazy assumption.

So... Dory the fish is DTF? Gross...

Ha, I love it. When I was 3, I kept calling my mom's friend Tish "Tush" instead and didn't understand why they were cracking up...

Now you just need a friend who is Truly Scrumptious.

Please keep kids away from religion untill they are adults and can make their own choices.

That's a good Juan..

How ‘bout twired when you’re both tired and wired…

LMAO I did this w/ my sister's friend. I thought her name was Tuna Cole b/c whenever I'd ask where she was going, she'd say, "To Nicole's...." LOL

poor reece, being called 'greasy' can be a huge insult if used correctly.

I remember a coworker telling a story of how she dropped off her son Blake for his first day of school, and when she went to pick him up, all his classmates were waving goodbye and shouting, "Bye Blank! Bye Blank!!"

Roar.

It looks like you were right all along.

Ricky from ikea goes walking

That one took me a minute.. Orca.. Lol

'My mrs'? My WIFE, dammit!!

This happens in my class.

My daughter called it that too!

I've heard "memaw" and "pepaw" as grandma and grandpa quite a few times.

We know who the real Elliot was...

That's so cute ....

As in: "Not that I'm a werewolf, but I could go for some lamb chops for dinner."

My brother did that! He called my friend Allison Medicine

If anything should changed, a space needs to be added so "Danger" is her middle name!

I asked my 5 year old niece about her friend. ‘Is it Aimsley with an M or Ainsley with an N?’ ‘Aunt Carra it’s A, a, a Ainsley.
