General Chat

I used to work with Rose Thorne (her married name)

Sis in law has a friend named Teresa Green

Friend of ours.......... John Thomas!!!!!


:-)

The funniest one I heard of was when I was growing up,there was a man in my town called Hercules XXXXX,He was a short,puny, weedy little bloke- the exact opposite of Hercules!!

Margot.

I have to admit i thoguht she was called "Harper Seven" - same as you i heard they coudn't think of a proper name & called her after the time she arrived
Half passed Seven - still think its a very funny name for a little girl

Then someone else said it was the name for a Witch in a comic - would have thought they could have come up with a pretty name for a little girl after waiting all that time.

Someone I know called their little girl "Bailey" after the tipple she kept drinking while expecting

When I worked at the nursery we had a family with 3 boys Kirk Douglas *******
Douglas Kirk ******* & the 3rd was called Spartacus ******** (she ran out of ideas) - she was madly in love with Kirk Douglas - Goodness only knows what woudl happen if she had a 4th

Poor little things

I can understand "Brooklyn Beckham" as a name, but Posh must keep a detailed diary to know it happened on that particular Tuesday :-S

When Posh & Becks had their baby daughter named Harper Tuesday, I was drying my hair listening to the radio, and just caught the end of the news, I thought they said they had called her "Half past Tuesday" but it did not surprise me :-D

lolol Sue

Many years ago somebody left a note on my boss's desk, to phone Mr P Niss.......... he did, and got errrr, one of those shops that sells "adult toys"

:-D

My great grandparents were Edward and Elizabeth. Their children were something like Emma,Emily,Eli,Ezra,Elisha and Elbert. It sounds like it should start with an E.

Double whammy was a Richard Coxhead :-0

Richard Head (always Richard for short) was a colleague of mine once. And there was a trainee manager in Brixton Tesco called Mr Pollock. The Manager (a rough diamond) continually shouted across the store on the Tannoy for Mr B...k to come to the office :-D

Robert Sole - nasty!!!! we wound one of our physio's up one day, told him to go and call Mr R Sole to come in to be seen!! wasn't till he shouted it out that he realised what we'd done!!!

like I was left a note on my desk to ring Mr Hugh Jarse - I did it as well!!

Lots of "New Agers" live near us, some of their children have unusual names!

One pair called their son Tsunami............. another lot named their daughter Ocean......... I hope those two don't get together when they grow up.

:-)

I know of a very blond little girl called Ebony, another called Amba, one called LE and a small boy called Denim. We also have a friend called Robert Sole. M

AnnC :-D :-D :-D Lots of hail Mary's this week :-D

One of my OH's g g g grandfathers was Methusaleh Williams. He only lived to 77 though :-(

My granddaughter is almost 8 months pregnant with girl no 4...youngest is 6 so quite a gap....nearly choked when the children said princess might be born at Christmas.

I said to my daughter( grandma) they're not calling her princess are they?
She said Oh yes...I do hope they were joking!!!

Brilliant, just choked on my chocolate.

:-D Ann!!

or Michael Hunt, a nurse I worked with at our local hospital ;-)

this'll probably get reported but it's true - someone was looking for this guy and he walked past our office window so I said to the office in general, "who was looking for Mike Hunt, he just went past the window?" to which some wag replied - "Well I've heard of throwing your voice, but that's just plain ridiculous"

Seemingly 'normal' names can prove an embarrasment when coupled with the surname.
I've seen both Wayne Kerr and Wayne King given as names.

One one of the registers for a course we run, the surnames ran (in alphabetical order):
Big
King
Lord
Nobbs :-D

Absolutely stupid.

Think of being the Nan and calling him in the playground. Hashtag poppet come to nanny. OMG

I might have said before about the young mum who called her baby Silver.

The surname is Smith. OMG

One can only hope Muffy.
