Today, I won a big raffle. However, my name is so ridiculous-sounding that they thought someone was playing a prank, and pulled a different ticket. I was too embarrassed to say anything. FML

My name is Harrison (Harry by some) Johnson (Or another slang for penis). So my friends call me Harry Johnson and then just laugh their asses off

#55 I was referring to #14 'the todd' reference, which is in fact from scrubs. I know the difference between them, theyre two of my favorite shows.

Why on earth would the OP supply his/her real name? That's just asking to be stalked.

Catkam623 27

Because knowing what qualifies as such a ridiculous name is important to the fml community so that they can laugh at op

Knowing the name is an important part of FMLs such as this. It's silly to not include it.

Batman bin Suparman? (there's a real guy with that name in the world, no kidding.)

126-Like that's the worst. Dick Assman, GoldenPalaceDotCom Silverman (parents were paid for that one), Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnckssqlbb11116 (rejected protest against naming laws, but pronounced "Albin", later tried "@", also rejected, also pronounced "Albin", but not the first to try for @), God Shammgod......Batman bin Suparman has a lot of competition.

Yes because knowing someone's name is certainly a guaranteed invitation to stalk them (heavy ass sarcasm intended)

You get used to that when you have an Italian last name.

My dad purposely named me Amber so I would not have as many difficulties in school as he did. My Mexican last name though does add some problems since I live in a white based community

At least your name isn't Gaylord and someone had agreed to name their baby after you, before they knew your name.

My principal's name was Gaylord. Was hard for all of us not to laugh every time he was called up.

I feel sorry for you OP but why did 31 (the amount at the time of posting) people say YDI. How does OP deserve it?

Probably because he didnt stand up for himself. I don't have a "unique" name so I wouldnt know how it feels to be in his shoes.

1) presumably they entered the raffle themselves so could have put down a nickname. 2) by the time you've grown up with something like that you should be able to laugh it off and stand up anyway. And if you can't manage 1 or 2 the you need to (3) change your name because you're going to miss a lot more in life than a raffle if you let what people think of your name keep you from what you're entitled to.

Because no matter what their name is, they should have claimed their prize, it's easy enough to show I.D. and prove that's your real name.
