No worse than the real life New England Patriots NFL player who's surname is Hoomanowanooie (sp?)

I still can't pronounce Suh's first name (I know different sport, but not an everyday name by any means)

When Duncan Duncan was born, there were less than 10,000 residents of the Arizona Territory, and Chandler was just ranch land. Wow.

Hoomanawanui (ho-oh-ma-na-wa-noo-ee). The funny part is his first name is Michael.

Just do what we do and call him Hoo-Man.

It's awesome that the OOTP research team went to the work of getting non English/Western names into the game so that they can be listed in a "funny" names thread.

I wonder if there is a Japanese forum somewhere where they play a western sport sim and have a list of funny names like Joe Smith.

Duncan Duncan? Funny name.
Davida Hoomaikai? Just not from your culture, guys.

Ed Gotobed would be an awesome closer. He would be the only closer who could justify bringing back "Enter Sandman" as entrance music.

From a historical sim I did with completely fictional players:



I suppose this was their alternative to Michael Jordan's baseball career (although this guy is 16 years older than the real Kevin Durant).

Not a very good player so no one ever showed him the money.
