phoenix, google your first name and see who/what else has that name. The idea is to use the first entry (so long as it's a person), but most of us have looked at several.

I have just tried my own name. No thank you. I am not telling anyone about that.

Erm, possibly being a bit thick here

Go to Google then do what, exactly?

Good idea for a thread, Bags.

DD1 comes up as an actress, DD2 herself (theatre designer) and DD3 a queen of England!

Whew, Bananas. At least with Macedonian kings there's a choice of two 'normal' names but I think I know the one you mean.

annodomini - as if! I don't think it would have been fair to send a boy to school called Agamemnon. To be precise should have said Macedonian king, I'm sure you know now!

Oh, it's just the first names we want. In that case DS1 has the name of a fictional Scottish cop and DS2 has the same name as a former English rugby captain, hobbit actor, Spandau Ballet star etc.

BAnanas please tell me your DS1 isn't Agamemnon!

Isn't this wonderfully silly?
