best olympic athlete name?

[wilecoyote]

Hey .... so many exotic names being highlighted across our TV screens these days, and wondering who has the very best name of any of the Olympic athletes ...

My vote has to go to Natalie TITCUME of the Australian women's softball team ... and it's pronounced TITCUM! God bless her

I just wish he didn't ease up at the end. Or he could have came close to 9.50 seconds.

You have got to be kidding that the world's fastest man's last name is Bolt. 1000 to 1 its a fake last name.

Zhang, Xue or Zhou. Starting to really take a liking to these Chinese surnames, so unique at least over here on these shores. I imagine those names are like Jones or Johnson in China.
