My buddys phone crapped out so he asked me to set him up a genuis appointment up online to get his iphone fixed.......Has anyone ever put a funny name on the reservation so that it shows up on the screen at the store? I entered his name as "King Joshua" hoping he is absolutely embarassed once he gets to the store in about an hour. Anybody ever done something like that? hehe :-D
 
Or "Lord Piddleton"

At any rate, no, I have never thought of this. But I wish I had. You should have followed him and watched from behind the Macbook table.
 
i think whats funnier is that he has an appointment an hour later in the day, my nearest apple store didnt have an appt for 4 days after the day i went to sign up
 
Hugh Jaifone.

(I'm 40, but the name Holden McCrotch makes me giggle like a school boy.)
 
Or use the name Mike Hunt.

On a serious note, I knew I guy whos name was Dick Holder. If my last name were Holder I would go by Rich or Richard not Dick.

That's awesome. I'm really going to have to remember this one! :D
 
The appl store near me has all their computers broadcasting, as I found out while trying to use back to my mac for the first time.

I tried to connect to one as a joke and put in apple and apple for the username and password. It worked. I was playing around with the computer and the screen for iPod and genius bar appointments.

I didn't do much, but now that I know the password I may use it to get a quicker appt. If I needed one.

A few years ago I worked for a company doing IT support - I knew from the address book there was a guy working there named Michael Hunt, one day he called into the desk and I answered - even though he referred to himself as "Michael Hunt" I couldn't resist laughing.. I had to keep hitting the mute button - I had such a case of the giggles..

The same company had a guy named Harry Bush. What were these parents thinking???
 
At my high school, we had a foreign kid come in whose name was Phouc, but he pronounced it fawk. The teachers kept insisting on calling him "foo". He'd get really angry and say no, its "fawk". Eventually he started going by dennis.
 
There is a real guy named Harry Saks in my home town.. and went to school with a Dick Colon - he prefered to be called Dick, not rich..


how about

hahahaha awesome :D
 
I was thinking about it today also... my girlfriend, Jenn, her iPod touch is acting up... i was gonna sign up her genius appointment as:

Jenny Talls
 
The funniest name I have ever come across in my life was a classic, I still get a chuckle out of this whenever I think about it, which of course I just did. Anyway the printer salesman I used to use came into my studio with a guy he was training, he introduces me to a guy named Dick Eadd, pronounced like ED. It took everything I had not to burst out laughing right in his face. I waited for him to leave and couldn't stop laughing the rest of the day. Could you imagine going through life with the name Dick Eadd, his poor childhood.

As to the point of this thread, great idea but poor execution. You couldn't come up with anything better then King Joshua?
