In my hometown there was a father named Manley Butts and he had a daughter Minnie. I didn't believe it when my father told me and I looked it up in the phone book (yes, it was a long time ago) and there was the name. I wasn't able to confirm the "Minnie" daughter but I'm pretty sure it was true

One of my first jobs in construction was in a company managed by Richard Lover, who preferred to go by the name "Dick."

Yep, Dick Lover.

Whenever he showed up on site, we would ask , "Got a pencil, Dick?" Or "Got any gum on ya, Dick?"

Don't make me fabricate a story that I knew this dude in middle school named
"Mike Hunt" (poor guy...)

Standard stuff so far.

I usually work at my home office, a converted garage, but today I was having to edit something so I was in a video post house. Virginia Wood ran the Pro Tools (sound mixing) rig. When I mentioned that morning wood was a known commodity to basically half of the world's population she said, "I get around some." And laughed.

There was a company in my home town that did business under a sign "Seymour Bush and Sons"

But the best one I know of was a prank played by one of the guys in the old Squamish Hardcore in the 70s. He managed to convince the phone-book company to include an entry in the Vancouver White Page for "Rection, Hugh G." It ran for several years if I remember correctly.

There was a car dealership where I grew up headed by Phil McCracken.

There actually was a Chris Hundt, son of Mike, in my middle school.

I have met a woman called Shirley Gross.

Best fakie though, thus far, has to be Barry McKockinner.

Honorable mention to Hugh Jardon.
