Talking about names....what else? lol

I met a 51 year old man named Happymore yesterday. Made me think of Happy Gilmore,but obviously this gentleman was born waaay before that movie was made.

Also met a 60 something woman named Fern. I commented that she has a lovely name and she replied that I was the third person that day to tell her so. She went on to say that something so simple just made her day and "filled her with smiles" :-) She was such a sweet old duck. Do you compliment others on their name if you like it? Do you ever ask about people's names or do you feel that would be too intrusive?
