A Doctor who used to do vasectomies was a Mr Hacker

A friend Doctor was Dr.D’eath, I think he inserted the apostrophe.

DH worked with a Dr.Bone and I worked with a very small woman called Mrs.Short. Once in a Dr.reception room, everyone had to hold back a smile when Mrs Snowball was called and a lady with a shock of grey/white hair stood up.

A dental practice in Oakham 'Dentith and Dentith'.

We knew a fantastic physiotherapist called 'John Thomas'.

The local Hairdressing College had a tutor called Richard Bird.
Staff, students and clients ('Guinea pigs'), all called him Dickie Bird ? .
He took it in great part, A very flamboyant character .

Apparently the name of the first person to get avian flu is called Mr Gosling, he caught it from ducks though, not geese! I have known riding instructors called Miss Trot and Mrs Canter and a local equestrian centre is owned by the Gallop family. Anyone else come across suitable (or unsuitable) names?
