Re-watching old Walking Dead and I'd forgotten about the wonderfully-named producer Caleb Womble.

Best name ever, for me. What's yours?

This surname can’t be written properly in English, so ends up with this sort of unfortunate transliteration. The Dik sound (!) is not a d but actually more like word ‘the’ with a short ‘e’ attached. The t at the end is said more like the beginning of ‘think’.

Max Power

There was a Max Power in my son’s class, he became a professional footballer.

Also in the same class there was a Ryan Irwin, who became one of the youngest ever pilots for Ryan Air.
