Daft names

Now if only the mayor of London was called ......
San Francisco Clan.?

I rather like the name London I bet they like it over there they all love anything to do with U.K.
after all beckhams son is called a Brooklyn What’s good for one and all that

London Nicole Breed...I wonder if she gets it shortened to Lon or Loni or even Donni ???

My cousin's son is called London, she is British but wed to an American and lives in the US.

My grandsons watch a YouTube channel about what is inside stuff. The young lad on it is called Lincoln and his sister is called London!

I once read in an American magazine of a chap called Randy Ponce.
Neither has the same connotations in the US, I know, but it still gave me a ? moment.

The other ‘best’ I’ve ever known of was a waiter in a hotel in Lagos (Nigeria) whose name badge read Mortality. He did always look and act pretty grumpy, too - you asked for a bit more toast at your peril.

There's a heavy metal singer called urban breed (with lower case letters like that.)

There is a Paul Twocock who works for Stonewall. I think he would not have survived boarding school.
Sadly.
It's not a good surname.
But frankly, neither is Trump and that didn't stop him.

There are plenty of odd surnames though that people live with.
Over my years I've known Pratts and Ponces, various bottoms (Sidebottom, Hickinbottom, Ramsbottom, Longbottom etc) and also odd pronunciations of ordinary ones... Mrs Onions (On-irons).

Not long after we got married we stayed in a small family run hotel near Athens. The waiter/man Friday was called Smiling Abdul and really lived up to his name. He was in charge of the breakfast toast but if the bread took on even the slightest colour he would throw it in the bin! I remember him sitting on a stool with an overflowing kitchen bin in front of him.

Incidental and off topic. A young fair skinned English boy sat on the edge of the sea most of the day and was very unwell indeed. The hotel owner sat up all night pouring salted water into his ears.

Sussexborn, did the salted water work?!

An acquaintance with the unusual surname 'Moreve' called their baby son Adam. Adam Moreve - really??!!

Randy Ponce!! I spat my tea out, priceless

Trump is a fantastic name.

What about Willie Dick??! And it’s not a joke!

My brain has dissolved owing to hospitalisation so someone will have to explain the humour in Adam Moreve. I hooted over Randy Ponce, though.

I went to school with a lad called Robin Sole, did his parents not consider he's be addressed as R. Sole?

Euan Lamb!

Jaxie Adam Moreve = Adam or Eve.

I once attended a lecture by someone called Perry 6.
He had changed his name from David Ashworth, I gleaned from
Wikipedia.

I have an American friend. He has young daughters called Holland and London. I personally don’t like these names for girls. His middle daughter has a girly well known name.

We had a friend called Ivor Stiff - that's really true.

I suppose Florence was considered an odd name when it was first used as a girls’ name, but I think it’s lovely.

In hospital, my DH was looked after by a lovely Somalian male nurse called Nomore. DH asked what this name meant, and the nurse told him that when he was born, his mother's 6th child, she said "No more" and that became his name!

There was a boy at my Chinese school called Jumbo Wang.
