奇葩天天有：外国人令人汗颜的改名理由.docxVIP

1.Tim Pppppppppprice: changed just to make it difficult for telemarketers to pronounce改名为蒂姆·普普普普普普普普普普莱斯（Tim Pppppppppprice），只是为了让电话推销员很难把它读出来。Sick of cold-callers, Tim Price has put them off by changing his name to a virtually unpronounceable list of consonants. According to him, its pronounced Tim Per-per-per-per-per-per-per-per-per-per-rice.厌烦了电话销售员的蒂姆·普莱斯（Tim Price）为了屏蔽他们，便把名字改成实际上一长串不发音的辅音。据他讲，他的新名字读成“Tim Per-per-per-per-per-per-per-per-per-per-rice.”The 49-year-old from Leicester hopes his name will make people think twice about contacting him. He said he has no regrets over the name change and will now refer to himself as Tim 10p Price.这位来自莱斯特的49岁大叔期望他改的这个名字能让人们在联系他时再多想想。他表示自己并不后悔改名，而且现在会把自己称作Tim 10p Price.（心疼他，被电话销售员烦成这样不容易。）2.King Arthur Uther Pendragon: changed because he believes he is a reincarnation of King Arthur改名为亚瑟·尤瑟·潘德拉贡，因为他相信自己是亚瑟王转世。Im the only person in the UK, other than the Queen, who is allowed to wear a crown in their passport picture, says the man formerly known as John Rothwell. He changed his name in 1986 and said even his family no longer call him by his birth name.我是整个英国除却女王外，唯一能在护照照片上戴皇冠的人。这位之前名为约翰·罗斯维尔的男人讲道。他在1986年改名，并称即使是他的家人也不再叫他的原名。Passport control officials always do a double take when they see his name and picture, which shows him wearing a crown.护照管制官员在看到他的名字与戴着王冠的照片时，总是会忍不住再看一眼。3. Adam West: changed because it was cheaper than changing his flight booking改名为亚当·韦斯特：因为比改签机票预订更便宜。In May 2015, 19-year-old Adam Armstrong, a student from Manchester, England, changed his name to Adam West because it was cheaper than changing his Ryanair flight booking.2015年5月，来自英格兰曼彻斯特的19岁学生亚当·阿姆斯特朗更名为亚当·韦斯特，因为这比他改签瑞安航空公司的机票预订更便宜。The ticket was booked under the name Adam West and the airline wanted to charge him $337 to change it. His girlfriends stepfather accidentally booked him with that name because thats what he called himself on his Facebook page. I had put it as Adam West as a joke because he was the actor who played Batman on TV, West said.Ins
