    LOL.

    We named a (rowing) boat "Brownsword" at uni which always raised a smile.

    As did "F.Kinell", particularly when we convinced the gullible freshers that Frederick Kinell was a well known benefactor of the uni.

    I went to college with a Mr (first name deleted for legal reasons) Brownsword.
    He didn't find it funny, but that was his loss.

    Once had (no, not like that) a supply teacher called Miss Sex. Really.
    She didn't last long…

    When I was 14 the doctor who sorted out my broken leg was called Dr Love. I chuckled (OK sniggered) and said "Hi Dr Luurve" which went down like a tonne of the proverbial.

    At school there was a girl a couple of years above me, called Anna Lingus, which was unfortunate, pre internet though, so I guess the parents hadn't been thinking when they christened her.

    I met a teacher called Guy Fawkes last week. Nice guy, but he thinks that home fireworks should be banned on eco grounds.

    And I've recently come across some top first names including: Precious, Dimple, Gifty, and Cosmic.

    There;s a doctor at St James, Leeds called doctor toogood. I think he's a surgeon, if anyone is cutting me open i want it to be him!

    I also went to school with a girl who's first name was lesley and second name anne. To make things worse, her surname was an abbreviated term for a prostitute.

    I marked exam papers for a 'Manmeet' and a 'Dipa Mistry'and I taught a very nasty piece of work called 'Zubair'. There was a girl on my PGCE course whose name was 'Shirley Kitcat' but she changed it by deed poll after her first TP.

    but smells like a bin

    On a remote beach out on the island of North Uist, a massive stainless steel beer container (that looks like a stage of an Apollo moon rocket) was swept off a ship and has been washed ashore. – Its empty, I checked.

    On it, in absolutely massive letters someone has declared proudly "Kat Smells Nice"
