    While not really funny, I've always found Angel Pagan's name ironic.

    in the 2009 Name of the Year contest, the winner was Barkevious Mingo, a linebacker committed to LSU...

    and I believe last year's runner up was a women's softball player named Destiny Frankenstein...

    The Bengals had a linebacker out of Indiana in camp their first year whose name was Brown Marks. He didn't make the team, which was a relief to me, since his name made me think of dirty underwear...

    It might not be funny, but it's odd: Rogers Hornsby

    Why "Rogers" instead of "Roger?" I mean, he probably spent his entire life saying "No, it's RogerSSS."
