Thread: Potential Goldmine of Buly Names as BBC reports study into ‘Most Unfortunate Names’!

BBC NEWS | UK | 'Most unfortunate names' revealed

Some of the names are old hat, but some are new to me, and the study itself might be worth a look. Some of my new favs are Mr Stan Still, Miss Paige Turner and Mr Terry Bull, but the prize must surely go to poor Miss Anna Sasin!....unless she is super-hot and wears a lot of leather, then she is the luckiest women alive!

I know a Jo King! I did rather like "Anna Sasin" that's one I haven't heard before!

i was leafing through a book in borders whilst waiting for a friend the other day, it was about unfortunate British names and one poor lady was actually called Fanny Lips. I think it mentioned she married quite young....cant think why!!

I was watching a TV show yesterday about Victorian artists and there was one called Fanny Farmer. I thought that was a good one.

I used to go to school with a boy who claimed his sister was called Annette Kirton!!!

It may well have been a joke but either way, highly amusing!

I've said it before but one of the newsreaders on my local news was Chris Peacock. My mum and I thought it was hilarious. Then, after a while, he changed it to Christopher Peacock. He must have caught on.

Just to prove I'm not making it up:

He is under "Former Team", south. Top of the the right column.

Ha! That took me a moment before I got it - poor chap!

When I was little there was a boy who lived near one of my relatives who was called Justin Love, and one of my mum's colleagues named her son Luke, which would have been ok if their last name wasn't Right! She also worked with a woman called Iona Gunn! I swear these are genuine!

i know a lot of these are roller derby and burlesque names already lol some people are cruel!
