Here's why:
* Compound verbs are formed by combining two or more verbs to create a single verb. Examples include "walked and talked," "eat and drink," "jumped up and down."
* Noun phrases are groups of words that function as a noun in a sentence. They can consist of a single noun or a noun modified by other words, such as adjectives, articles, or other nouns.
In the case of "funny name," "funny" is an adjective modifying the noun "name." The entire phrase acts as a noun within a sentence, e.g., "He has a funny name."
