I photographed a chinese wedding for a guy called Hak Kan and a girl Ting Ting. So her new married name was Ting Kan. Made me chuckle uncontrollably at the service for ages. Seems immature now. But I still get a Christmas card from them!

My Dad went to uni with a german called Everard Koch.

I knew a bloke called Peter Nurse and his wife was Anne (P.Nurse and A.Nurse).

Went to school with Theresa Green, her Dad was a very well educated man and he thought this was hilarious.

Two brothers Eric and Isaac Hunt (not true but funny)

Teaching English in China with classes of 50 or more kids there's no chance of remembering their proper names so we always get them to choose an English name, they like to watch American TV shows like Prisonbreak so I have a kid called TEA BAG I tried to deter him but I couldn't tell him what it meant.

Absolutely true, it was in Ilchester but it (unfortunately) changed hands a few years ago. I only wish I had a picture.

A good friend of mine is a surgeon. His name is Butcher which must be disconcerting for patients.

One consultant I know is an R. Hole. Never found out if his middle inital is S.

Another consultant is named Hugh Wylie, always makes me s**** a little.

Once taught a lad called "Fletcher Bumstead". If saddled with a surname like Bumstead you would think you would choose something a little less conspicuous for the first name too.
