Boring story, but I just love the name "Air Chief Marshal Sir Jock Stirrup".

I've always been partial to "His Excellency President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, CBE."[

It's taking a considerable amount of effort on the part of my sleep deprived brain to not read his name as Air Chief Marshal Sir Jock Strap. What an unfortunate name.

A guy I work with is named "Stains". It must have been fun for him when he was in the navy. He was "Seaman Stains".
