Love. Phoenix. Willie Grin
An ex friend of mine worked with a teacher called Mr Love whom she shamelessly flirted with, he started off quite good looking but then lost his looks (with his hair first) poor man!

McCool. But I think that's fairly common in Ireland.
I also know a Devine family and they're far from it.

Honeychurch - a teacher
Fazakerly - a doctor
Abdulrahmen - a doctor. I loved saying his name. He was beautiful. I assisted him with an ascitic tap one fine day. Huge brown eyes and the tiniest tightest dark little curls. I think all the nurses were in love.

My own name is very dull.

I have known a couple of people called Pratt. That is not a cool name.
I know of a family with that surname and they have called their daughter Isabella - poor kid. Did they really not sound it out?
