They'll have a hard time getting listened to or getting credibility. People
like Doc Stinks (R.I.P =P) are some of the many people who've managed to get
away with
it. My family name is one of the few humorous names that, you might
not realise.

JacketPot Tator? Dick Tator?

Thankfully all those characters are dead now but, it was for just the
giggles and I
thought I'd get away with it without being noticed, thankfully I did for the
larger part, but more importantly all my characters that were the first part
to the "Tator", are dead now, with the family names being displayed on
messages now and all.
