OK, now that was funny.

Phone rings.

"Hello?"

(heavy accent) "I am speaking with Kirsten Berry?"

"Excuse me?"

"I am speaking with Kirsten Berry?"

"Um, no. Kirsten is a woman's name. Do I sound like a woman?"

"Oh. You are the spouse of Kirsten Berry?"

We went around in circles for a few minutes. it was from our ISP.

Which evidently is based in Mumbai these days.

I take it they were calling about the change in the credit card number?

Reminds me of the time...

I have an ex-girlfriend who was diabetic, and would often get these postcards from a company trying to get her to call to find out about the latest gizmo for diabetics they were selling. The cards were always addressed to "Kattie Leaf"

Her name was Katrina (Katie) Reef.

Yeah, me neither.
