    Just reading an article there about Wayne Rooney and had the thought, Christ Wayne is a terrible name. Any others you'd add to the list?

    I always wanted to know when 2 double barrelled surnamed people married what happens, complete fook up of people's lives, should be banned, one surname or fook off out of the country.

    Any of these obscure and makey-uppy Irish language names, that reek of middle class Gaelscoil attendee.

    Kid destined for a life of slowly repeating and spelling it for everyone.

    I've met an Irish guy called Erc. Pronounced Urk.

    Its actually some ancient saint from Meath, but Jesus, why would you name your child after a noise a fella makes when he's getting tackled in a match.
