If you can help me with the kickballer, the next four are boxer¹, bomber², chopper³ and grifter⁴.
¹Muhammad Ali, the American political activist who won the world boxing championship under his given name of Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr.
²Marshall of the Royal Air Force Sir Arthur "Bomber" Harris
³Michael Palin in the Monty Python lumberjack sketch
⁴Some self serving fascist cunt -

It's a Raleigh Strika. Perhaps Arthur Scargill would have been better.

His name was/is Muhammad Ali. I know he won prizes and medals with his given name, but he rejected that in 1964. He was Muhammad Ali for most of his life. Please don’t dead name him. He got that for some years after he changed his name.

I guess they're both dead names, but it's nice to be known as what you wanted to be known as.

Yeah it’s mainly calling him Cassius was something the thing he was opposing would call him and use to put him down.

Perhaps Arthur Scargill would have been better.
And they could still have had a kickballer by replacing Palin with Ron Harris

Could also put Gerd Muller in place of the other Harris.

Still gutted I only got a chipper, not the full chopper.

Thus explaining why most of us only won chippers.

He called it his slave name. Not that he was ever literally enslaved but he clearly felt v strongly about the oppressive nature of that name.

Which is odd, since it was his father's name and his father was called that in honour of a noted abolitionist. There are plenty of good reasons to change your name, including wanting to disassociate yourself from your family, but choosing a name which associates you with a racial separatist movement doesn't look like a step forward.
