[Closed] If you needed more evidence....

I didn't, although thanks all the same 🙂

Could've been worse. Kaiser, Tyson, Chesney?

I am in the same camp as Victoria Coren Mitchell in finding him oddly fascinating.

No idea why.

Nahhh he's not that interesting, he's cut from the same cloth as my old 6th form Geology tutor, who used to cycle in - bolt upright on a bike from the 20's whilst wearing a tweed suit complete with de rigueur pocket watch.

He was a terminal bore and as arrogant as they come, as is Mogg.

His poor daughter has such an ordinary name.

Seems quite an eccentric chap.

He's always dressed ready to attend a 1922 committee meeting.

I don't see anything much different to the names many people give their kids these days, anyway, a friend of mine of many years standing is called Edmund, his younger brother is Dunstan, and another friend of mine is called Dorian, do you want to make some snide comment about their names as well? 🙄

This was brilliant.

"We shall have to take our business elsewhere"

He went up a great deal in my estimation when he posted that.

You are in danger of sounding like Katie Hopkins OP with making aspersions about folk based on their names.

I remember when the left was all about [u]not[/u] being petty and judgemental.

I dont.
Future pm there for sure.

Ah sod it, the bloke's a knob

Got a picture?

Benefits scrounge has another baby! If you're in receipt of a public subsidy to renovate your house you have no business having children we can't afford.

I was deeply concerned that a hard working sandwich might be slaving away, nose to the [s]forum[/s] grindstone, working only to subsidise Rees-Mogg, but a little googling suggests that it might, rather, be the other way around:

Sandwich, earlier...

In touched by your concern cranberry but I'm not slaving this week. Attempting to shake off an infection.

Making aspersions about folk based on their choice of names for their children, ITYF.

Personally I'm more concerned that the odious turd has reproduced.

Pathetic attempt. Not a patch on Moon Unit.

Thanks, you owe me a coffee.

That of course is your prerogative. I very much doubt that the target GAF though, but who knows? You could add your opinion to his Twitter account and see.

I reckon that Rees-Mogg jnr will do a Zowie Bowie and change their name to something ordinary like George or Gideon before they outgrow their teenage years.

As for Rees Mogg himself, perhaps the very best place for him is as a panellist on HIGNIFY, I'd rather he were there than placed anywhere near a position of influence within a large political party for example.

Sixtus was a Roman name, a corruption of the Greek name "??????," meaning "polished," and originally Latinized "Xystus." In its Spanish form Sixto it is still used as a personal name. It is not to be confused with the common Roman praenomen "Sextus," meaning "sixth," though not necessarily denoting a sixth child.

Notable people named Sixtus include five Popes of the Roman Catholic Church, the first three of whom are called "Xystus" in the most ancient records:

Pope Sixtus I (115/116–125)
Pope Sixtus II (257–258)
Pope Sixtus III (432–440)
Pope Sixtus IV (1471–1484)
Pope Sixtus V (1585–1590)

Other notable people named Sixtus include:

Sixtus of Reims (d. c. 300)
Sixtus of Siena (1520–1569)
Edmund Sixtus Muskie (1914–1996)
Prince Sixtus of Bourbon-Parma (1886–1934)
Prince Sixtus Henry of Bourbon-Parma (born 1940)
Sixtus Leung Chung-hang (born 1986)

A polished turd?

Try doing some research - the house belongs to the Wentworth Woodhouse Preservation Trust. He doesn't live there or own it.

It's a terrific name. 8)

While I'm not a fan of him or his politics, I am rather impressed with that name and rather less impressed that of all the things he (and his political brethren) can be castigated for, the OP thinks the name of his infant is the one to go for.

Thank **** for the internet. Now I can read about people commenting on the choice of names that people they neither like nor know have chosen for other people that they'll probably never meet.

How the **** did we get by before the web.

That's a bit rough on Tom.

I do love a bit of de Pfeffel on HIGNFY.

Really? You thought that was a serious comment from me? I hate to break it to you but Narnia isn't a real place

That's not what that bloke I found in my wardrobe said. The lying bastard.

Yes, he's such a decent chap. As a landlord MP he was able to vote against a bill to force landlords to make their let properties fit for human habitation but he got a £700,00 grant for his wife to restore the family pile. Odious doesn't even come near to describing this cockwomble.

Wha? Narnia not real? Jesus lion is not coming back to save us all 🙁

I like it.
Could go either way.
Third generation clone or full fat Freddie.
Tenner says the lad hits puberty and goes full Pargetter.

At seventeen, dreadlocked, stood in a field, as stoned as St Stephen and givin' it lrg, he'll thank his dad every time a girl comes up to him and says 'So what's your name then?'

Until he names his kids after the items in the discount drinks isle of Tesco he's way behind some of the local mums. Special brew the third FTW

I love the fact that this will fly miles above most people's heads!

😀

The surprising this is not his kids names, it's both the fact he manages to rustle up a chubby, and that any woman would actually let him near her with it.
