Great article on BBC website.

By personal favourites are in the comments below, the husband and wife couple, she's a lawyer called Sue Mee, and her husband a banker called Rob Mee.

A few years ago we had a similar thread. I got second place for a couple who lived in Heysham, one of whom worked in our old shop, called Fanny Cummins and Willy Cummins.

However I was beaten by Keith's Phillippino nurse called Love Tabonka.

Anyone got any more?

P.S. Why did this make me laugh as a town name?
