It would obviously be weird for the goras because, in their language, butt means something completely different than what it means in urdu. Wasn’t there a huge fuss over the name Dixit too a few weeks ago? :nahi:

There were a couple of Butt's in my high school. Other students made fun of their names at first, but they stopped cause the guy (butt) took the jokes very lightly and didn't really get bothered by all the mocking.

O c’mon Although it aint a very common surname in west but am sure you must have seen/met a western BUTT wandering here and there on some point in time !

and c’mon lads dont you know Pâmela Butt ?

Dick is also a very common name in the west, especially in the UK and Northern Ireland, but that is not going to stop people from associating the surname with the male genitilia.
