My personal favorite is "Curl Up and Dye" Hair Salon. There was one outside of Loveland, CO in a strip mall. I would occasionally use the pay phone there when I was in field service some years ago. That's also the name of the hair salon where Carrie Fisher is working in 'The Blues Brothers'.

True story. My daughter was born by C-section. We had selected a pediatrician named, of all things, Dr. Ambush. During the C-section, the surgeon's name was Dr. Means, and the anesthetist was, ironically, Dr. Payne.

On the little rolling cart they used to take my daughter back and forth from the nursery, the identification card said: "Baby Girl Sigmon, Ambush - Means - Payne". I couldn't make that up!
 
My kids' orthodontists are Dr. Bonebreak and Dr. Moench. I used to have a dentist named Dr. Chu.
 
I drive by a sign for this place every time I go to a launch at our winter field:

Dave Swindler's Complete Auto Service & Repair
 
My brother cut a big gash in his leg carving wheel wells on a model car with an XActo knife when he was about 10... the doctor that sewed it up was named Dr. Slaughter.
 
The first skin specialist took 3 different blood samples on 3 different occasions. and still came up with "Test were inclusive". I knew right then this Dr was bilking us for office visits. We found a better one after that.

The first Dr's name was......"Dr. Kahn"
 
Forget where I saw it, possibly Canon Beach, OR, but it was "Swin Dell's Insurance".
 
"There used to be a restaurant in Spokane, Wa, by that name. Cold Food, Warm Beer and Poor Service.....they were usually pretty busy."

Because they only had young, pretty women as servers. Food was actually good, though.

Are you from Spokane?
 
In my travels as an iron worker I once saw a funeral parlor named Kilroy Funeral Home.
The salesman who sold me my KIA was Mr. (forget his first name) Crooks.
I worked in a paper mill with a John Arbuckle, but he looked like Ronald McDonald. His boss was Garwood. First time we met I just knew he was about to say Garfield.
 
In the late 70s i worked as a masons tender for a guy named ira rock.
 
I lived in the Philippines for 5 years. They have a real knack for turning a phrase.

I thought up three good business names that I'll never use:
  • A liquor store simply called The Ethanol Emporium
  • An adult bookstore called Son or Aphrodite
  • Ye Olde Towne Pizzeria
I don't know the businesses' names, but a two business juxtaposition that was amusing: taking the back road from Philadelphia to Atlantic City I drove past a gun shop next door to a funeral home.

As for people's names, I had a dentist named Dr. Payne, but that's not as good as a couple of major league ball players: a pitcher named Bob Walk and an thirdbaseman named Mickey Klutts.
