....the most common are the Richards, with the Pauls in an also overly common 2nd place.

There's LOADS of Richards with TVRs! You don't see this with other cars, it's normally an even spread.

Can anyone explain this totally irrelevant anomaly for me? :-D

For God's sake don't let the Porsche boys...well, girls, see this - they already think most TVR's are driven by Dicks!

Richard (that's not even a joke!!)

There was a guy in a photography course I did years ago called Mat/Matt Black, I s##t you not.

For a pure class name I once encountered someone called Proteus Duxbury, that takes some beating. :-)

Oi, what's wrong with being head of something wink

I once had a friend called Robert, got nicknamed Bob-along because whenever we went out with the families my boys would say are you bringing Bob along... then we had another friend who also came out with us, he got nicknamed Bob-up because my boys in the car would say can we catch Bob up biggrin
