In fact, you could add a few more Fulham players to the list:
John Cutbush who was half a Brazilian
Etuhu who stuck to Murphy like glue.
Geoge Best who was the...oh well, you get it.
Nogood "just for starters, isit" Boyo

My good wife, Mrs Burt, gawd bless her, reminded me earlier that the name of the doctor who operated on an abscess I had on my bum was a certain Dr. Butt.

True, dat.

I went to school with Mary Christmas and Albert Hall, but I reckon American swimmer Misty Hymen takes a bit of beating :down_under:

Forever Fulham

I once dated a Detroit public school teacher (inner city no less) who had two fraternal twins in her class:  Cash and Christmas Money.  At first I thought she was pulling my leg, much like those fake names  Ellie Phant, Autumn Rain, Pearl Button,  I.P. Knightley, or Won Hung Lo.  But, no, she swore those were their christened names.

in the sixties/seventies there was a World Cup referee called Mustafa Camel.

Funnily enough I work in a Post Office and came across a Mustafa Camel. My mum had a client and his name was genuinely Joe King, she was convinced it was a windup and wouldn't have it until he got his passport out!

I had a gf in Germany. who after college got her first trainee teacher job in a rural community. Two of the schoolboys' names seem a bit amusing - one was called Knut Knodel and the other (seriously!) was called Fritz Titz.

Knodel, of course, translates as dumpling

... and apparently he was kind of dumpling shaped!

Dumpling, of course, being colloquial for the items referred to in Fritz's surname. Are they known as Knoedeln in German, Mr Cebu?

Actually, it's Knödel ... I expect his older sister had nice dumplings!   :005:

Is that plural?

My machine won't do umlauts anyway.



Yes, the plural of Knödel is Knödel - annoying isn't it ... kind of like "sheep" in English.
