On local radio recently I heard a contestant in some competition or other
who said her name was
Dawn Allday.
I did wonder whether she had sister called Eve.
And my wife, a ex-teacher, once worked with a Mr Warmer, whose parents had seen fit to call him Richard.

Up until last year there was a guy called R. Sitch in the Norwich
telephone directory.
This isn't an urban myth, I heard about it on one of Steve Wright's radio shows and as I work in Norwich, I checked and there it was. Seems to have gone now though. I wonder why :)

I used to work with a Chris King who said he wanted to have three kinds - at least one of each sex. Partly so he could answer "how many kids do you have" with "Three - one of each", and so that he could call them Fay, Lee, and Wayne.
