I think that one of the funniest examples of an embarrassing last name is
portrayed by Patricia Routledge on the BBC comedy, "Keeping up Appearances".
One of the most obvious examples of Hyacinth's snobbery involves her last name. According to her husband Richard, Bucket is pronounced as it is spelled. However for Hyacinth, it is pronounced "Bouquet," à la française. Roy Clarke said he got the inspiration for this character trait after meeting someone with the surname "Bottom" who insisted it was pronounced "Botome". Despite her insistence on the more elegant French pronunciation most people usually call her "Mrs Bucket" or more disparagingly "That damn Bucket Woman again," behind her back.
