Truly awesome names

[lucysnowe]

I have just come across someone who proudly bears the name of Buckmaster de Wolf. It is the awesomest name I have ever heard! Does anyone have any similar awesome names?

Oh and I went to school with a family on Conway-Crapps - I suspect they didn't end up working for the Welsh Tourist Board

of, not on!

Has anyone mentioned brothers Rupert and Edward Bear, who had a solicitors' practice in Nottingham?

A distant ancestor of mine was Neptune Blood.

I know a Jacinta Barnes-Jones.

I think it sounds undeniably glamorous.

My dentist as a child was Mr Mercy
My Doctor is Dr Watson
My small daughter has an incredibly gorgeous little friend called Valentine - poor lad will probably grow up to be a munter but at present he's all big eyes, long lashes and all the mums fuss him

In dp's family tree is someone called Humble Broom.

I know of a DT teacher called Mrs Glews and another teacher called Mr Rea (pronounced Ree - mystery).

Went to school with a Walter Whisker
We had someone at work with the first name of Babyshark (surname was fairly normal but can't remember it)

Hugh Cumber has me chuckling away here

Surely his parents must have realised?

Ha ha, you've reminded me MrsGotobed, I know a Dr Gotobed. Is he yours?

Coolest name?

"Isambard Kingdom Brunel". If that isn't cool, then I don't know what is.

Oh TheRoses, no nothing to do with me but glad to hear there's a real person with the name, especially a Doctor.

I chose the name because when I read Carrie's War as a child I always thought it would be a great name to have.

I used to work for Dr Valentine and Dr Money.

My brother was friends with a lad called Joseph King. Joe for short.

My daughter went to school with Sky Wilding.

oooh and I've just remembered that after the late unpleasantness, one of my ancestors married (gasp) the overseer, Mr. Garlick.

Totally Givenup. I'm also a big fan of

William Makepeace Thackeray

The Victorians knew how to do names eh?

There's a Dr Love in the local town who does vasectomies.

I knew a Dianna Roxanne Kanannowitz (?sp)
I told her I loved her name.

My mum met a Mr Wildgoose.

I had my horse schooled by a man called Hartley Larishe, despite his exotic name he was a very down to earth Gloucestershire type of person. In relation to the behaviour of the bolshy Highland he would say "I've got a vote, You've got a vote but he hasn't got a vote"

fnar

I was in Hospital having my first baby Mrs Thomas, YES she called her son JOHN!!!!!

Oh, I have worked with Dr De'ath, and a Nurse NURSE

I once communicated by email with a contact in the USA with the name of Jasper Bumcrot!!! Unbelievable!
