Dagger Is Back Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Knew a customer once called William Nilli - think about it! Also another guy called Peter Ness - had P Ness on his cheque book! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger Is Back Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Had a mate claim that 3 of his uncles (3 brothers, that is) were all called Donald McDonald. But it was OK, as they were each named after different uncles/grandfathers etc. I once came across a girl in Southampton whose surname was Loving. Her parents had given her the name Summa. Miserable looking sow, she was - not a surprise there! Also had a customer (Belgian, I think) called Bertrand Belende. Probably pronounced differently but known in our company as Bertie Bell End. Haven't we all mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I heard that there are two twins at Tynecastle High School called Dolce and Gabbana. No idea if it's true, but I want it to be. I have a friend who works with the families unit in one of the police forces in Scotland who told me about them. She obviously has contact with a fair few of the more eccentric clans around the central belt. She also told me about the McLatchie family in the weej who called their sprog Versace. Ouch! There's at least one Pocahontas in the Raploch in Stirling, she's in her early teens and quite well known (although not by me personally) I have an uncle called Robert Robertson.

Acey Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Given Sara Cox has named her son Isaac Cox (if you don't get it right away - give it a few secs). That's untrue. His name is Isaac Cyzer, not Isaac Cox. There's a KB poster who's named his kid, "Braiden". Rather him than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sparrieheid Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 A workmates niece is named Crystal Cleary, and I used to know a woman named Pat Dick. Also, my sister used to work in the DHSS and regularly had a guy come in to sign on who had changed his name by deedpoll to Mr Monkeywrench Loadingbay. Wonder why he was out of work?

Pete Seeger Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 At a guess, I'd say that she's fifteen years old, wears big gold (plated) hoop earrings, has bleached blonde hair with very obvious dark roots showing through, maybe even a wee bit of pink in there if she's feeling adventurous, wears those ****ey McKenzie jackets or whatever they're called, has an eighteen year old boyfriend called Kev who is unemployed and has a different tracksuit for every day of the week, smokes Mayfair, sits up the back of the bus with her neddy wee pals playing ****e music and has two kids called Kaiden and Tameekah-Jade. Mongy little ****. I ****ing hate her. Nothing wrong with Mayfair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mac Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 True story - when we lived at Morrison Street, we used to take our son down to Princes Street Gardens on a Sunday, as you do, and there was this fat loudmouthed female with her two kids - one in a full Hearts strip practising his ball skills, and a chubby wee curly ginger haired lassie - anyway, the mother keeps yelling out in her best West Lothian accent, "Look at ma laddie, he's goat a' the skill in the world, he's gonna be a barry player fur the Hertz", which was quite entertaining, but then, she's looking round, spy's the daughter, and yells, "Are you needing a pee, Madonna?" We still laugh about that to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
