I just can't imagine in thirty years time that Post Office counter workers will be saying "Ah - here comes old Darren for his pension!" as a 75 year old bloke in an Adidas tracksuit shuffles in!

I knew two Cyrils back in the 70s and 80s.
The former didn't mind as his surname was Knowles, same as the footballer.
The latter stuck to the nickname of his youth, ' Ginger' , even though he was in his 50s and grey. :^0
This caused confuson to new members of staff because we had a youngish ginger bloke there, but he insisted he was called by his real name, which was Terry.

BC - I've a mate called Trevor who was indeed born in 71! My Grandad is called Herbert too!
My Grandad was called Cyril, I think he hated the name. My brother in law's brother is called Trevor and he was prob born 79 or 80 or something.
With respect to my Grandparents Herbert and Dorothy, Percy and Eva Eileen, I wasn't going to lumber any of my kids with any of that lot!
Barabas was just a victim of circumstance.
I know a Pontus which is almost Pontius, and a Moses - both of those are in their 20s
Living members of my family include:
Arthur
Edgar
Maud
Esmeralda
Priscilla
Edwin
But the only one I've ever heard complain about his name is Walter. He's lucky, his mum had done that trick with the wedding ring and thought she was going to have a girl so she had decided on Hilda.

These will come back into fashion again, in the 1970's you never heard anyone except an elderly man be called Jack.
Now there's loads of boys called Jack dunno why it's a pretty boring name a bit like John.
I've noticed that more kids are getting first names that are also surnames a trend that's come over from the US I reckon.

BC - no Squire. Dads side of the family all originally from Wandsworth, but I was born in Watford and the Trevor in question is now living up in Durham.
I would never convict anyone of parenticide if they had been named Wayne. Fully justified course of action imo.
No way - as long as there are gay hairdressers there will be Jasons.
Fella at work has just had a baby girl(well his wife did) and I asked him what they called her.
"Vaginica" he said.Pronounced Vaj ineeka
It is a sign of the times that I don't know whether he was joking or not.

Simon Mayo on Radio 2 yesterday a woman called the show for a request. what you doing now asked Mayo? bathing baby Arthur she said
ernest is well and truly gone now, shudder to think what all the young students and university wallers would have thought if they realised what their cult hero from cuba who led the revolution was actually named, they thought it was cool to hero worship the poster that adorned many a students wall along with the name che guevara, wonder if they would have thought the same if they realised his name was ernesto guevara
Best sense of humour anybody had was to name one of my old dart playing mates in the late 80s and early 90s.
He's Jamaican, and his surname is Whyte.
His dad named him Enoch.
You should have seen new teams faces when he signed the team sheet :^0
