My high school student find it absolutely HILARIOUS that my last name is MacDonald. They have no idea that it's actually a pretty common name; they've only ever heard of the restaurant.
Today was the first time I met one of the classes of 17 and 18-year-olds. Their teacher told them I was coming, and somehow they knew that my last name was MacDonald. They thought it was so funny. Before I came to the class, they covered the blackboard with McDonald's golden arches and wrote "I'm lovin' it" all over the place. They died laughing when I turned around to erase the board and I thanked them for the nice drawings.

Well, it is kind of funny.
Do you have any students named "Nacho"? You could laugh at his name.
My students think it's really funny my last name is MacDonald too. They're always like "Oh, my mom is a MacDonald do you know Anne MacDonald" I always tell them NO, even if there is a slight chance I'm related to them.
