I grew up knowing a kid with the last name Chitty. His dad was a plumber.
The slogan on the side of the dad's work truck was "Plumbing problems solved? Must've been a Chitty job!"

I never understood how the freshwater game fish ever got to be called a crappie.
Sure, you can pronounce it 'crop-ee' but you aren't fooling me!

back in the old days (when I worked) one of my agents had that last name. He said it sometimes it was hilarious. I remember one story he said he played little league as a boy and when he'd run to second base the announcer would say "Anthony peed on second" he'd play it up like he was saying "sorry"

I have a friend who's a plumber. His slogan, "A straight flush beats a full house."
We have another plumber in town. All their vans are painted with Rodin's "The Thinker" sitting on a toilet as he thinks. Their slogan: "The Thinking Man's Plumber."
