I have a hard time hearing it and not snort- giggle-snort!

same thing with the delivery service "Ocado" - it translates as "violently sick" - and for a food company of all things! Priceless!

Percy: the name Biba could just be a shortened name for Habiba as I know one. Her parents are muslim so presumed it was a cultual type name.

I also know two Genevieve's, one in her 30s and another just turned 5.

There is a Wolfgang at DC school, never met another one of those

And we know a Sorrell too.

There are lots of Wolfgangs living in Germany aged 60+ including my uncle! Very popular name for boys born around 1950. But, yes, not many young boys in Britain named Wolfgang.

Sort of interpreted as names of people you had met

Habiba/habibi is Arabic. It means best beloved. You hear it a lot In Middle Easten music.

Yorick (sp?) as in 'Alas poor....' object of fantasy to my teenage friendship group - would be getting on for 50 now.
