What’s in a name ?

[Son of Stan]

I remember seeing a load of American tourists on holiday way back with name badges on which made me laugh:
Skeet Stockhard
Maybeth Maybless
Betty Gusset
Childish but we were amused.

I know a bloke called Dick Pratt

Did he get into Low Fell Library? I used to work there ages ago and Mr Pratt and his friend Mr Pigg used to come in together and I could never remember which was which so had to ask - and they would yell 'Pratt' then 'Pigg' it always made me think of some sketch where I'd asked to be verbally abused.

Headmaster at my secondary school was called Richard Cox. Different generation, but he was known as Dick Cox to everyone, not just the sniggering schoolkids.

Said this before on these types of threads, I’m on a Twin facebook group and every now and again you get someone asking for inspiration for names. For some reason when you’re naming two, the weirdness always cranks up a notch.

Some suggestions from this week’s thread:

Hobie and Joebie
Parker Heath and Hudson Blake (sound like airports)
Bear and Hunter (no competive issues when they’re older or anything)
Henley and Kaycan “pronounced K-son”. (Tip: if you need to tell someone how to pronounce your kid’s name, you gave them the wrong name).

No different bloke. This one was a lecturer at Birmingham Poly as was. He’s retired and lives on the South coast these days.
