I just love the names everyone has in the Carry on films-here's some of my faves-what are yours?
Vic Spanner.
Esme (?) Crowfoot.
Any of Babs Windsor's characters 'real names'-not Goldie Locks but...?
Sid Plummer.
Inigo Tinkle.
Doctor Nookey.
Hengist Pod-and many more!

Well of course there's the immortaly ones from Cleo:
The Khasi of Kalabar, his daughter the Princess Jelli and right-hand thug Bungdit Din...
Oh - which reminds me of another of my favourite lines, where the Khasi tells his rope-trick performer to leave the stage:
"Fakir... off!"

Ah, Paully beat me to three of my favourites 
But they're not from Cleo Paul, they're from 'Up The Khyber' Along with Sir Sidney Ruff-Diamond

You know, you'd think I'd actually check stuff before I post it, wouldn't you? Jimster and Natalie have got me working so hard here that I daren't raise my head from the desk for very long, or they start cracking the whip. I tried to take a break for five minutes to have some bread and water for lunchtime and they set the dogs on me...
It's a hard life here at h2g2 towers...
[that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!]

There there... ever so there there there.
(I think that's a Frankie Howerd line from one of the CO films he was in 
)

Mustapha Leak springs to mind. Was this in Carry On or did I imagine it?
