'''Policeman''': Talk understandably, don't mumble into your beard!
'''Bicyclist''': ''(pulls down fake beard)'' Wrdlbrmpfd.
'''Policeman''': [[The Comically Serious|What a stupid name!]] Get away!
'''Bicyclist''': ''(while leaving)'' Oh, by the way, officer -- my sister wants me to tell you soem greetings!
'''Policeman''': Your sister? But I don't know your sister at all!
'''Bicyclist''': You don't? She's such a short, dumpy one...
'''Policeman''': No, I don't know your sister -- what's her name?
'''Bicyclist''': Her name is also Wrdlbrmpfd... }}
Line 247:
* The mermaid in ''[[Sanctuary]]'' has a name, but Will and Henry consider it unpronounceable, and have instead christened her Sally.
* ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]''. Xander and Spike are tracking a demon that's poisoned Buffy when it suddenly leaps out at them.
{{quote|'''Spike:''' [[Oh Crap|Oh, balls!]] You didn't say the thing was a Glarghk Guhl Kashma'nik.
'''Xander:''' That's 'cause I can't say Glarma-- ''(demon [[Talk to the Fist|hits him]])'' }}
* [[Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger]] seems to be toying with this, giving names like Shibuyaseitakaawadachisouhidenagaaburamushi to the [[Monster of the Week]], and a villain whose name is written as "©Na"(subverted in that it's pronounced Marushina/ Malseena).
