Hate to admit this but my surname is W O O D C O C K, not so uncommon, but it gets better as my cousins are C O B B L E D I C K.
Having been to a private school you can imagine that I grew up with some very "original" nicknames. It certainly taught me to have a thick skin.
Good job they didn't know my grandmothers surname was COX, and they had even managed to shorten it from Cox-Maunder!!! Is this a record as being the only name shortened to a rude word?

I always thought I got off lightly as there was a P. Nurse at our school whose sister was Alison, A. Nurse. Their father was a doctor, you'd have thought he would have known better!!!
Other cousins from my mother's side are the Blacks and the Whites.
Oh, almost forgot on my Mother's side are Thomas and YUP ther's a John!
