"Frandle" is a made-up surname that Mr_Grant applies to a character in a caption, when that character does not need to be a recognizable public figure. He believes it 'sounds' funny, especially when paired with a polysyllabic or alliterative first name. "Frandle is much funnier than a regular name like Smith or Johnson," Mr_Grant explains, "therefore using Frandle instead is value-added Funny!"

"I can't believe it," thought Mary Jo Frandle, "Serving on the Security Council is such a high honor."
