CUSTOMER: My name is John Stamos. I have some questions about your product.
ME: [politely ignores name][answers questions]
JOHN STAMOS: Well, thanks. Hey, could you send me an owner's manual?
ME: Sure, what's your address?
JS: [gives address, somewhere relatively unglamorous]
ME: ... And how do you spell your name?
JS: Oh, just like the actor.
ME: [can no longer resist] Heh, you must get a lot of comments about that.
JS: I carry photos of the actor around in my wallet and autograph them for people. I have a lot of fun with it.
ME: Well, it's either that or just be really grumpy all the time.
JS: Pretty much.
Last week I helped someone whose last name was Stonecipher.
It's one of those names I would never use in a novel because nobody would believe it. But yeah. Stonecipher. She spelled it almost apologetically, and was a bit taken aback when I said, "That is the awesomest name ever and you need to start a band."
