Great name

[bobleponge]

Due to a bit of unrest in these parts just recently, I have been given a few more policemen to assist in defence of my compound.
One of these, delights in the name of William Both Chap.
Awesome.
Now, not only will the local judiciary be claiming two salaries, but I have to manage someone who sleeps twice as much, does twice as much nothing, and eats twice as much as well. Bonus.
On the theme of great names (and I apologise in advance mods, but this is a genuine name) my ex murder in law worked with a Dutch bloke called Willie Van Prikk.

A long while ago my brother used to work in the UBO in Handsworth, where he used to sign on a chap called Elvis Salmon....

Well, it amused me!

[Stacey Steve]

I deal with Thailand on a regular basis and had a message to ring a woman out there. I thought someone was having a little game with me because her name was to me just a string of swear words interlaced with several vulgar names for parts of the female anatomy but when I got an email from her because I hadn't rung her back it turned out to be totally genuine. And no I cannot possibly put her name on here, I would definitely get booted off.

I grew up in a village where there was a guy called Stanley Still. The fun we had shouting Oi Stan Still when we saw him walking up the road. never ever got tired of it - in fact it is making me smile now.

A very famous family in the circles I used to move in, CF. One of the predecessors was a colonel in the Parachute Regiment who jumped into Arnhem (A Bridge too Far for all you film buffs) in the second world war.
Not sure I would have fancied my chances of survival following him into battle though??

The same surname was also the surname of the referee of the first ever F.A. cup final, which some may say is fairly apt.

We did have a Tina Turner live near us

[Johnny Appleseed]

Mrs A is a teacher and one of the girls in her class simply can't wait to get married. Her surname is Green and her parents named her "Teresa"

Aren't some parents cruel?

I'm sure it's not a particularly unusual name in Ireland, but a friend of mine was really called Erroll Flynn. When MrsT was in Arizona on hols, a tour bus driver introduced himself to the passengers "Hi, I'm Randy Butt". Giggles all round.
My all time fav name was years ago, the Dean of Minnasota University was called Athelston Sphillhous. Not a name you can forget easily.
