There was an item on tv today about people with funny names eg Wendy who married Mr House and became a Wendy House or Teresa who married Mr Green and became Teresa Green (these are real people who were interviewed on the programme). My wifes friend from school was christened Teresa by her parents, Mr& Mrs Green (thats just silly!) and she has a friend, Gay who married Mr Bird and became a Gay Bird !

Do you know any others? Jim.

I believe that Steve (Stavros) Parish ex bike racer and now BBC commentator has PEN 1 S.

Why anyone would want that on a car I have no idea, but I have come across a few that deserve it!

In college after my own name on the register I'd write Alec Balls on the next line. I had one lecturer read it out 3 times before he realized what he was admitting to.
