My dad's name hasn't been mentioned yet, it's not really unusual but also not that common, but I put my mum's on the last thread and that is pretty rare so the two combined would probably out me.

Sean. ..birthcert amd therefore passport was john like all other eldest males in the family but was never called that name...bar when it caused hugh problems in immigration trying to leave america after a holiday..could not convince the lady at the security desk that sean was the irish for john and all his cards and driving license had sean in tgem..had to be escorted directly on the plane by security in the end. this idea of having one name and usibg anither drives me daft now...thunk im still bitter from mossing out on american duty free!
