The best are the comments the guy made when he constructed the list.

Most of 'em seem to be German...so they're probably said with a different accent or two...

THAT would suck.

And is totally plausible.

Luckily, I have no idea if some Tunisian or d00d in Mogadishu thinks "Jennifer" looks like a word for vagina, penis or fart.  :D  *ignorance = bliss*

I dunno, I think I'd vacation more often in a place that took my name to mean a word you can't say in church.

the one dutch book on the list: "Krap" means "tight" in dutch. a bit strange, but nothing too weird.

the (german, i guess) guy named Fueck, can't possibly have missed the interesting spelling of his name, that word is nearly universal thanks to american TV being exported just about anywhere.

the guy named Jerkov, is probably pronounced like Yeah're-cough.

.. but the other people on that list really have no excuse publishing under that name ;-)
