Not as funny as yours, but I found this one yesterday while looking for Read ancestors:

1881 England Census about Infant Just Anew Read
Name: Infant Just Anew Read
Relation: Son
Father's Name: James Read
Mother's Name: Mary Ann Read

I get the impression the little fellow had popped out only a couple of minutes before the Census officer called round :-D
