how the first name Tokyo works in conjunction with Sexwale does a surprising amount of the legwork

Went to school with a Snowball. Called him Snowy which is a lovely nickname

I like the Swedish surname Kvarnström

Which means mill stream …and sounds really lyrical with the rolled ’r’s

I know a Cecilia Kvarnström - top name

I’ve got a mate named Johnny Tingle. We just call him Tingle, of course.

In my day job, design for print, I once worked on a medical publication edited by a professor named Anita Hardon (which I might have mentioned in another names thread).

I like that he could have used Richard (his full name) but said nah fuck it.
Dixon Halliday actually changed his name to that by deed poll.

I’ve said so in another thread (I think), but I’m going to say it again.

I once spoke to a man who’s surname is Wankmuller (actual spelling).
