I also met Queen Elizabeth Smurthwaite.

 

Probably not the same one then. I went to school in Essex, but I dunno where he went when he left.

 

Possibly the same one -- I went to school in Bishop's Stortford, which although in Herts has Essex to the North, East and South.

 

Carl,

there was some of the WK equipment in the pressure calibration lab where I used to work. I always assumed it was Mr Wayne and Mr Kerr. The guy I knew was real though.

 

Used to have a customer called; Ham Saarni

 

I don't know him, but I once saw a PC box from Dell addressed to a Mr. Adam Hussein.

There used to be a Policeman that gave talks at the school called Richard Head (already mentioned I know) used to take ages to calm the class down....

All so at school the local chinese takeaways boy was called
**** Kit Lo(Sp?) he called himself Kit.. and only on the occasional register calling (new teacher for example) was his full name ever used.

Couple of genuine ones:

We had a famous policyholder on the database - a lovely old lady called - Fanny Tickler Used to be a ritual for new starts to be told this and then made to look up the details to confirm it was true Sadly she passed away recently

Also know of a chap who wrote into the local Tourist Information Office looking for a brochure - his name was Everard Koch

 

I am working for a bloke called Tracy (Parents .....) at the mo

I knew a Porsche (not in the biblical sense..) very nice young lady.

We had a guy at school called Patrick Brain (!)

The head of Developer Relations where I work is called Charlie Helps. How bad is that?

 

There was an Everard Dick in my School. Search the internet for verification, it's for real. Rumours of a sister called Ophillia are unfounded.

 

Corner - that would be a terrible name

 

and what is wrong with Tatiana?

Mrs RF is called Tatiana, or Tia for short

 

This aint the Muppet Show!

I hate my name, but there's nothing bad that can be read into it, but apparently my Dad wanted to call me Rachel, my parents argued, so my Dad spelt my name without an "i" on purpose.

Won't get many Clares these days, far too normal!

My daughter is Hollie - she is blessed with an unconventional spelling too!

 

@ Clare

I was just being matter of fact, corner would be a terrible name. not my fault it happened to be post number 80...

I was at school with a guy called Tree - he was from Australia originally if that sheds any light on the matter

 

How about my mate who met and brought back a bird from Oz.
She is called Ardouin ?????
spoken --ARDWIN---
asked if it was common in Oz...nope

 

Friend of my wife called one of her kids "Diggery"

 

My boss Steve Berry has a daughter called Holly

And I once did jury service with a woman called Theresa Green (Clue: say it with a scouse accent)

 

My taiwanese contact is called Rabbit Fu - no kidding. There is also some poor blighter called Wing Wing.

I think the recent spate of names are great - this generation will be idnetified by bad music and names from Aussie soaps.

Richard Burns... does it?
