A lady friend of mine had the surname higginbottom she has always hated it and I found out recently she has legally changed her surname to Higgy. I can understand teasing when you're a youngster but surely by the age of 50 you just embrace and go with your given name, as an aside I also wonder how transsexuals choose their female names?

I remember her actually, she divorced Dave White but for some reason had an about-turn and kept his surname.

A year or so later she met and then married the well known singer and musician Bryan Ferry. From then on she was known as Isla White-Ferry.

A True story.

Years ago, I worked with Diana Dors at Chichester and she told me that her real name was Diana Flick.

She was invited to a ceremony at her home town in Swindon and introduced by the vicar.

He said I'd like to welcome Diana Dors but most of you will remember her as Diana Clunt.

We both laughed out heads off

One of my mates in the army had the surname Hunt and his father really was Mike. I once worked with a girl called Theresa and she unfortunately married a Mr Green. The marriage only latest a few months but she kept the surname.

I was once in a university class where fellow students had the surnames Gush, Rimmer and Swallow.

An ex-boss had the surname Titley. And guess what? He was a complete tit!

It’s not always obvious to the parents I suppose. I was in the same class as Jennifer Taylor. It was all fine until the teacher loudly announced what sounded like “I want to see genitalia”

Hate to be a pourer of cold water - So this cake read, not "Happy Birthday Isaac", but "Isaac Cox". Has anyone here ever had a cake with their surname iced on it?

"This reminds me of a joke I once read. A man goes to see a solicitor to change his name.

"What is your current name?" asks the solicitor.

"Bill Stinks" replies the client

"Ah" says the solicitor "I can see why you want to change it. What would you like your new name to be?"

"Bob Stinks" says the client

Lol !
