    An oldie for sure, but new for some.

    A man applies to have his surname changed, and as a formality the clerk at the Registry Office asks him a few questions.

    Clerk: “What is your Name?”

    Applicant: “Adam Nis.”

    Clerk: “What would you like to be called?”

    Applicant: “Smith – Adam Smith to be precise.”

    Clerk: “What's wrong with Nis?”

    Applicant: Here is my workplace number, ring and ask for Mr Nis.”

    The clerk rings the number and asks for Mr Nis.

    Telephone Receptionist: “Do yo want Mr A Nis or Mr P Nis?”
