I once met a guy called Fover-caffeinated sugary drink company. Genius.

My old geography teacher was called Richard* Head... Harsh parenting...

*For those who may be foreign or slow, Richard is shortened to Dick.

& good effort to the youngster. Have to say the shouting on the video was all a bit american and distinctly unpleasant to my sensitive british ears.

I once met a bloke called Kenneth Tucky, I kid to you not.

Used to speak to a Fred West on the phone occasionally. Poor bloke.

Mike Tyson · May 30, 2007, 12:48:45 pm

Well, I have the amusing fortune to be called Mike Tyson, and I used to work with Martin Johnson and Dennis Taylor. Hows that for sporting heros!

I have a mate called Ivar Gibbon not too far away from being egotistically well endowed!!

Hugh Banner's angry sign writing workshop was just down the street, too. Banner Cross, I think.

Me and Mrs Obi have been chosing names for soon to be Ickle Obi 0.5.

Current fave for a boy: Full name, Ethelwolf Raoul Wilson, shortened to Wolf Raoul (you'd have to howl the middle name!)

Imagine the psychological damage you could do to a kid by cracking up every time you said the poor lads name.

Surely thats the main positive of being a parent though?

Copied from the 2007 BMC AGM - nice to see Mike Hunt attended to look after our interests. And I do believe he likes to be called Mike...... maybe nobodies told him....

Back in my Cotswold Outdoor days, I was doing the end of day banking to find a cheque was used to pay for something. The name on the cheque was: B J Hardon. Made me chuckle lots.

I also went to school with a girl called Tracey Island.

dave · May 30, 2007, 10:52:19 pm

Believe it or not theres someone living in sheffield called Wednesday Adams. I don't know if they have a brother called Pugsley or not.

GCW · May 30, 2007, 10:54:29 pm

I once knew someone called Ivor Boner. His best mate was Alek Rammin, some German I think. They used to go out on the pull together on weekends. Gotta admit, Boner & Rammin were a hit with the ladies. Their other pal Willy Sagg was less of a hit.
sorry
On a serious note, a lad at my school was called Ewan Kinloch. Any guesses on his nickname?

Mike Tyson · May 30, 2007, 10:57:20 pm

Nice.

A good friend of mine is called Ryan Adams. His namesake is a singer I think?

Pantontino · May 30, 2007, 11:21:29 pm

He certainly is, and his Heartbreaker album is the modern equivalent of Blood on the Tracks. Make sure you hear it, it's the real deal.

Mike Tyson · May 30, 2007, 11:25:07 pm

Will most certainly check it out, cheers.

when i use to work for croydon council i took it upon myself to search the electoral register for such people.
i found several Wayne Kerrs, mike hunt etc.... but that is all pretty normal. so then i looked and found the members of status quo, but that isnt all i wanted!
i located a guy who had changed his name to Luke Skywalker (i shit you not) and three people called Elvis Presley.

i then upped my game and calculated the number of pupils in the current british education system called Vicky Pollard.
