To be saddened that my name makes me a CF?

My initials are C and F. So I frequently receive post that is addressed to Mrs CF Esker. Instead of my own names, these letters now automatically signify 'Cheeky Fucker' to me. Perhaps I should take it upon myself to become a CF and live up to my initials Confused

YANBU. We have a supplier called Code Factory. Everytime I see "CF" in the Supplier column I think "Cheeky Fucker"

Esker · 15/01/2019 20:06

Thank you. I'm glad I'm not alone in having my perception of the letters C and F fundamentally altered.

My partner reminds me that my initials mean "Equipment Failure Report" at his workplace Envy

Well MY name is Tracey Wendy Anne Travis.

Imagine what MY life is like with initials that spell out TWAT? Sad

robininbrum · 15/01/2019 20:12

I may be making that up. Wink ^

FiggyFudgePot · 15/01/2019 20:12

Think of yourself as the Cheery F Grin

And this is how I discovered CF doesn't stand for control freak 🤣 May have to go back and re-read some previous posts!!

ZenNudist · 15/01/2019 20:14

Or Laura Tabitha Brown

My son's initials are ARSE.

I didn't realise until it was pointed out Blush

SneakyGremlins · 15/01/2019 20:16

I thought your name was going to be Angela Hernandez.....

Pk37 · 15/01/2019 20:17

This cheered me up,OP. Thank you Grin

Don’t you have a middle name? Maybe time to invest in one?

Beeziekn33ze · 15/01/2019 20:33

When postcodes were first used an older man wrote to the press saying he wasn't going to be officially designated BF at his time of life!

It looks to me as if the OP's middle name (Fiona, Felicity, Freda) is the cause of the problem as she says her mail is addressed to "Mrs CF Esker".

CharlyAngelic · 15/01/2019 20:37

I saw Angela Hernandez on another thread.
What does it mean?

Atchiclees · 15/01/2019 20:38

One of the teachers at DS2’s school is CF. The name’s Fucker. Cheeky Fucker Grin

Villanelley · 15/01/2019 20:38

I share my initials and last name with the 50 Shades author. Think I'd prefer to be a CF.

Esker · 15/01/2019 20:38

Yep @cheminotte, I have first name C, middle name F. Maybe I should pop over to the baby name boards and remind everyone to steer clear of this predicament. Incidentally, my son's initials are first name V and last name F, so we had to avoid middle name beginning with A to avoid his initials being VAG.

Angela Hernadez = Police & Crime Commissioner for the SW. Aka Chocolate teapot with less charm and more cheek.

I'm suddenly feeling so much better. Grin

You think you've got it bad, try being Dorothea Ivy Clarissa Katherine.

LoopingLizards · 15/01/2019 20:41

I thought for a long time CF meant cunt face. No idea how or why but I still read threads that way sometimes

JennyOnAPlate · 15/01/2019 20:41

Dh's car registration has VU in it. Obviously in my head that's Very Unreasonable.

MyMuffinsStuck · 15/01/2019 20:41

Initials B.M here.
Bowel movement... Shock

Esker · 15/01/2019 20:42

Sorry correction, son's initals are first name V last name G. Look how distressed I am, I can't even remember the first letter of our surname Blush
