In November of last year I wrote a post on this blog entitled "What's in a name?" about an unemployed "mother" of thirteen kids who had vowed to keep getting pregnant until she she had twins. No, I am not making this up. She didn't want to be tagged a layabout scrounger - well, we can't have everything - but was happy to pick up £4,200 every month in benefits. This sort of thing really pisses me of. It always has and it always will.
In addition to setting a terrible example to her herd by imposing upon others the cost of "raising" her children, this lazy cow foisted her ridiculous, selfish judgement onto them by damaging them for life with names that only an idiot could deem to be a good idea: Peppermint, Echo, Rogue, Frodo, Morteus, Artemis, Blackbird, Baudelaire and Voorhees.
Well, it seems that this moron is not alone and that, in fact, her baker's dozen may have got a better deal than many others. For example, spare a thought for Stan Still, Mary Christmas, Hazel Nutt and Carrie Oakey.

Artemis and Voorhees don't sound too bad, but it would depend on the last name. If I were a teacher and got "Rogue" in my class, I'd expect trouble. Which probably isn't fair to the child, but there it is.
Mrs C- I agree, it would probably be wise to keep a close eye on a student called Rogue. Unfair, as you say, but inevitable.
My mother always used to tell me that there were two girls in her class at school called Theresa Green and Nora Bone. I didn't believe her but she always maintained she was telling the truth!
Lizzie- Theresa Green is an old joke, of course, but I had never heard Nora Bone before. An immediate classic.
haha@Nora Bone that is genius...
