A Proper Tory Name

This game appeared on FB today - it's fun and not meant to be offensive. In response to Jacob Rees-Moggs naming of his latest child the challenge is to create your own high Tory name. You take the forename of one of your grandparents and then hyphenate the name of the road on which you grew up with the name of your first headteacher.

Mine is Louise Keogh-Salmon- not very impressive I'm sure you can do better. grin

J had to use GGF's name as GFs were David and John. How very ordinary!

Mary-Alice Tentelow-Vernon. That's a sort of double double barrell, isn't it? I must be extra posh.

How do people still remember the name of their first headteacher? I can’t even remember the name of my childrens first headteacher .
