Kid in my class at primary school called Gregor McGregor

That's quite a traditional way of naming kids in Scotland. I have no idea why.

Anyway, on Monday, I'm going to see Dr Katie Cartledge.

Tenuous, but she's going to have a look at my cartilage.

Just blow on it and put it back in.

There used to be a Dr/Mr Cartliage/Cartledge who was a knee surgeon in Glasgow.

I have no idea how it was spelled but his son and I went rides with the same mtb club for a while.

Do you think that if you apply to a medical degree and you have a name that resembles some sort of part of the anatomy they just fast track you through?

Hope not for the sake of your cartilage!

Paging Dr Banjostrap.

(Wasn't there a Nominative Determinism thread already?)

I went to primary school with a Ronald McDonald ..tru fax, his parents were from the Scottish isles to be fair

Me too!

Real names:

Well there are lots of beaches around there right?

She must be a relative of @BRM

*sicks in mouth*

I've met her brother, rusty.

that is a fucking unfortunate name...

I went to school with someone called Hamish Patel.

"Rusty Trapp" does triathlon (he was finishing just behind my brother in the Alcatraz triathlon and the MC was calling out the names of people in the finishing straight).

I used to holiday here as a lad... http://www.sandyballs.co.uk/

not a person, but still >>>>

The English surname 'Furzer' will always resonate particularly with people who understand German.

I know that to be fart. I know because I know a person called Thurza and when I introduced her to another person I know who is German he chuckled. He's a forty-something doctor and he laughed because her name sounded a bit like fart.

Still, every time I go to Germany I am constantly amused by all the fahrts and kunts.
