Other than the well known Hunchback of Notre Dame, there is another Quasimodo.

Quasimodo, walks into a bar and orders a whisky.
The Barman asks "Bells OK?"
"Mind your own business!" says Quasimodo.
Quasimodo was a poor old deaf, hunchback and his only friends were the bells and the Cathedral of Notre Dame.'The bells, the bells...'

That reminds me of the old Muppets skit where Quasimodo sang, "The Bells are Ringing for Me and Gargoyle".

The Hunchback of Notre Dame

Quasimodo is the protagonist of 1831 novel The Hunchback of Notre Dame by French author Victor Hugo. Born with extreme physical deformities, including his infamous hump, Quasimodo was found abandoned on the doorsteps of Notre Dame on a Quasimodo Sunday (after which he was named) by the archdeacon Claude Frollo, who adopted the baby and brought him up to be the bell-ringer of the cathedral.
Looked upon by the general populace of Paris as a monster, Quasimodo later fell in love with the beautiful gypsy girl Esmeralda and attempted to rescue her when she was entangled in a murder. His heroic and selfless act against the many dark plots behind Esmeralda's fate created one of Hugo's most acclaimed masterpieces.
Quasimodo's name is a pun on the author's behalf. Frollo found him on the cathedrals doorsteps on Quasimodo Sunday, and named him after the holiday, inadvertedly calling him "half-formed".
