    Ha - Excellent thread!

    The wicket keeper on our cricket team was called Ray Dahr (or Darr, I forget the spelling)
    I had a Maths tutor at Stockport college called Pat Mycock (married name - she was gutted!)
    And my friend's dad was an optician called Mr I.Seymore ! I promise, he's still there, look it up - Marple Bridge in Cheshire.
    There were two Ramsbottom kids at my Primary school too.

    I also served with the following chaps in the Royal Signals:
    Sgt. Slaughter
    Sgt. Sergeant
    Captain Action
    Major Julius Caeser
    And my name is McNab! (My eyes are permanently obscured with a black bar!)

    Re: Is this the best name?

    Not a funny name per say but I went to school with a David Bates. Unfortunately our deputy head used to call all his pupils master. It never failed to raise a snigger, usually followed by a clipped ear .

    Cheers,
    Gary

    I once sold off a load of redundant IT hardware to a company fronted by Fanny Philbert which I thought moderately amusing at the time.
    In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.
