From Hawaii' - a REAL girl's first name - in the news this week, what is the strangest REAL name you have come across? Wonder why she wasn't impressed?!

I was at primary school with a girl called Mehitabolt - yes = Me/hit/a/bolt ! Wonder if her mother misheard 'Mehetabel'.

Through teaching and hobbies I have met a 'Princess Billy Rocket', 'Rose Vase', 'Hazel Nut', 'Miles Furlong' and 'Austin Cambridge' etc.

I can't beat 'Tallulah Does...' though!

How about you?

A few years ago the company I worked for received an order from a man whose surname was Pine Coffin. He must have had some fun making bookings over the phone
