Re: Horrendous Names!!!
I had access to names in Accy (work)
Here are some which caused giggles:-
Isabella Tinkler
3 pensioner chaps who always came to the counter together (mates) -named Whewell (weewell) Whittle and Philpott
They are probably dead by now but I remember a child named Justin Case who is probably still living local -you might know him.

You should try and find out if Isabella Tinkler has a son, then you could be Tinky Tinkler.

Re: Horrendous Names!!!
I had enough hassles with my last name thank you going through school. The kids changed the middle letters and made it into a totally different word - mind you one of the teachers did it once went bright red and couldnt apologise enough!!!

Our boys initials are their names
Samuel Alex M.... S.A.M
Thomas Oliver M..... T.O.M
Emily Kate M... is E.M without the middle name which is what we call her sometimes, when we are not calling her witch or trouble or monster

If this thread was in over 18's I would tell you both to go forth, but's its not so I wont.
I think it was mainly Rhonda who chose names, I just go with the flow about such things. Well almost, I do remember saying no to a couple, can't remember which though.

Poor lad, however, that Euphenism probably never existed when he was named.......
When I was at school .. went around with a girl called Katie Crowe .. I was Katie Rooks .. two birds to be reckoned with I can tell ya'.
'Two birds in the bush was worth more than one in the hand' a twist that springs to mind...

Re: Horrendous Names!!!
LOL! Seriously?
A few footballers have had dubious surnames, which makes for some funny comments by the commentators ...... main one I remember "Babb on the ball" ........ ewww
