Sils sister works in a hospital and was told by one of her friends on maternity and delivery that someone thought their baby girl came with her name and it was wait for it... She thought her baby had been given the name FEMALE and she was pronouncing it femily but spelt female. Took 3 staff members to explain that one to her and she still left calling her baby girl that.

Got a Rosie Parker over here.

I used to work in a call centre and we had all sorts. Long Wank, DuDe Wang, Chiel Tits, Jesus H Christ. The list goes on.

Someone I know swears down she went to school with Penny Chu.

I can only cite Sam Fox, who I went to school with in the 80s.

Bean I used to work somewhere where we had a DuDe Wang in our email list (as in, he worked there too but I never met him). Must be the same guy!

Our school honours board had shufflebottoms and lightbottoms galore.

I went to uni with a girl whose surname was Lightbottom and she was not a small girl.
