An idea that might be lost on the parents of Sergeant Major, born in Bethnal Green in 1875, or the eleven children born in the 1800s, surname Jordan, forename...? Of course, "River!"

Ha! Found a couple of "River Banks," too!

Frank Zappas daughter name always makes me laugh. 'Moon Unit'

I mean come on.

Whats wrong with a normal name?  Ill tell you what I find annoying, people who go on telly and have to have their name spelt slightly different, example 'Caroline' being spelt something like 'Carroliyne' when you know for a fact its should be spelt Caroline.

I'm sure I've told this one before,but here I go again....
I worked for Halifax Building Society. Computer system at the time -  if you wanted to draw some money out meant inputting customers account number, which would then print out a withdrawal voucher for the customer to sign..
The gentleman concerned's surname was Watts.
Unfortunately his initials were T.W.
So the name on the withdrawal voucher came up as " TWWATTS"
True story :))
