Update: The Dude Named Phuc Dat Bich Is a Big Phony

Update: Turns out, Phuc Dat Bich lied to everyone about his name. In a Facebook post that has since been deleted, Bich, or rather Tin Lee, wrote that the entire idea started as a joke that then became an elaborate hoax. Lee convinced everyone that his name was Phuc Dat Bich with a photo of his passport that was most likely photoshopped.

Lee said that after the fake photo went viral, he concluded people should "not to trust the credibility of the media" and that "an average joe like [himself] can con the biggest news sources with ease." However, despite "conning" everyone about his name, Lee ends on a positive note to those who actually have difficult-to-pronounce names, telling them to "ignore the ignorance in those who may try to put you down."

Lee has also deleted his entire Facebook profile and the original post with the fake name and passport photo. You got us this time, Lee, but at least it got the conversation going about how people treat names they think are unusual.

Original story: You're about to rethink any issues you might have with your name. One guy named Phuc Dat Bich — yes, you read that right — took to Facebook to clear up matters about his name and tell the world about the awkwardness he has to live through.

Bich posted a photo of his passport on Facebook way back on Jan. 27, but it's now going viral. He uploaded the picture to prove that not only is his name real, but that it's "offensive" for people to think he's lying about it. Bich has a point, considering he is an Australian-born man who also happens to have a popular Vietnamese name that is foreign to some. He also wrote a little bit about Facebook shutting down his account due to the company's real name policy — a strategy that's been highly criticized.

I find it highly irritating the fact that nobody seems to believe me when I say that my full legal name is how you see...
