I think thats exactly why. like a pun type of thing LOL
You're right it is a pun, but not because of Funny to you or others.
The ulnar nerve at the distal end of the humerus near the elbow is sometimes referred to in popular culture as 'the funny bone'. When the ulnar nerve is pinch between the humerus bone and an object it has that shocking feeling.
This name is thought to be a pun, based on the sound resemblance between the words "humerus" and "humorous"
