Man Changes Name To 'Bacon Double Cheeseburger' (Yes, Alcohol Was Involved)Attachment DeletedAttachment DeletedHe's Mr. Cheeseburger to you. A British man formerly known as Simon Smith has changed his name to something slightly more carnivorous: "Bacon Double Cheeseburger." The change was inspired, like many bad ideas, by an evening of drinking. “It was the culmination of probably too many drinks in the pub where there was a conversation about names," Cheeseburger told the Evening Standard. “Bacon Double Cheeseburger was pretty much the first thing that came up. Everyone loves bacon don’t they?" Cheeseburger, 33, told the newspaper his new moniker is "the most ridiculous thing" he and his friends could think of. "My friends were quite supportive of anything that makes me look silly, as good friends are.” Cheeseburger said his new name hasn't affected his career as a consultant in the oil and gas industry. www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/name-bacon-double-cheeseburger_us_56ccabf0e4b0ec6725e42430?utm_hp_ref=weird-news

Big Mac or Quarter Pounder would be more appealing.

I can recall from many a year back being in a a local magistrates court to request a warrant , it wasn't an urgent matter and it was also a private in camera matter .The clerk had spoken to the magistrates who said they had but one more case to go and then would be able to deal with the request.
The accused fellow comes up before the beak and the defense solicitor then informed the bench that his client the defendant (who as I recall was charged with a minor drunkenness linked offence) had changed his name legally by deed poll.
He was now known as ''Norty Rascal.'
The small public audience fell about laughing much to the annoyance of the bench and as I remember also the court staff in general showed a very stiff upper lip attitude to the matter until the court closed.The bench also fell about laughing once the public show was off stage. And if my memory is correct after all those years the fellow got hit with a 50 pound fine, a not insignificant sum in those days either.

I have worked with a Doug Beer who loved a drink, and Lisa Steels-Chickens. Can you blame some people for changing their name?
