Congratulations! You know how to spell "Favre."

But you didn't think this would be that easy, did you? No, no. These are the names that have been tormenting sportswriters and journalists for years and years, though we gave you a few easy ones to start with. Where it gets really tough are those names that caused problems for uniform designers, who could barely stuff the letters into the confined space on the back of the players' respective jerseys.

And we're not talking about Dirk Nowitzki... this error wasn't even a hard one to avoid.

We're not talking about the names of cities or states, either. But hey, even those mistakes happen, too.

Let's see how well you do with some of the toughest surnames (and one first name) throughout the world of sports.

Didn't do so well? It's alright... these were tough. If it makes you feel any better, some other NBA players who were drafted alongside another Antetokounmpo brother didn't do so hot, either. Forget spelling... Lang Whitaker couldn't even pronounce it!
