    NZ couple to name child Superman

    A couple in New Zealand is planning to call their newborn son Superman after officials rejected their original choice of 4Real.



    That kid better be a tough-un otherwise he's going to get a beating first day of school.

      My family used to run a hotel, had a barman and his Italian wife who decided to name their newborn son - Simon Primo Arthur Middleton, until they realised that the initials would spell S.P.A.M. Oh no, they thought, poor Simon will get the sh1t kicked out of him when he goes to school.

      They pondered the problem and decided to insert the name Segualia in the middle (a locally well-known Italian family name).

      So dear Simon was christened - Simon Primo Arthur Segualia Middleton - S.P.A.S.M

      Brilliant!

        There were a Mr & Mrs Walker in our village who called their kid "Luke Sky".

          Kid at school called Neil Shipman. If he'd been called Harold, and become a doctor... well, what a laugh that'd be!

                My dentist is a Dr Gentle. He graduated with someone with the surname Rough. He mused they would have started a practice together if Dr Rough was staying in the area - with a white door and a black door into each of the rooms.

                  There was (is?) a firm of solicitors called Duckworth, Wetter & Fowler in Oxfordshire. Aquatic bird crime a speciality.

                    Linda or "deep throat" I would guess.
                    If you find this post offensive, please insert "Chan" before and "tho" after, then it should be OK.
