On that subject, George Foreman has twelve children, five of whom are boys all called George. One of his daughters is called Georgetta Edited May 18, 2023 by Bert Raccoon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For fear of him seeing it I know someone called, let's say 'Rabert' In stead of Rab, Robert and Robbie in his three generation case. It's Robert (his son) Roberts dad (himself) and Roberts dad's dad. It's exactly the type of scenario you imagine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My grandad was Richard and his first son was named Richard who had a son named Richard who had a son named Richard. So it was Grandad, Uncle Dick, Little Richard or Ricky and Wee Richard. Someone did a family tree once and Richard and James were common both reaching double figures going back to some time in the 18th century. In a time of large families and higher infant mortality there a few occasions where a James or Richard died young where the name was recycled when child number 5 or beyond was born. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I had one of the strangest dreams of my life last night. I was caught shagging some black actress from a show in the 90's and was chased out of town by her redneck father who was a sheriff. He was also white and an actor in the 90's. The town eventually ended up being Monifieth as I drove away at speed with the police car and a flat tyre. The sheriff ended up ratchet strapped to an advertising board, me stabbed in the leg and the denizens of Linlathen celebrating his capture. I have no idea where it comes from, or what it means. I live in neither of those places and I never ate cheese, drunk or took any acid. The mind is a fucking crazy thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll hold my hand up now - Grandad, dad, me and son all have same name - but it is Auld Jim, Jim, Jimmy and James. No f**** given! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thistledo Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Joined a meeting once with a guy called Michael Michael Michael, which I found hilarious for obvious reasons and said to him you should just have your name on your email signature as Michael³ didn't go down that well for some reason, got a bit awkward after that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my family it's George, James and William over and over going back. My mum deliberately avoided all three when picking my name. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
