Brick! Where on earth does that name come from? I only know it from two TV series (Outnumbered, The Middle). OK so that's TV, but surely that means more will definitely be out there, if not before then after those shows.
No offence if you're called Brick, but . . .
On the Balls theme, I went to school with John Balls - a right numpty! Thick as pigswill.
Oh, and I honestly knew a kid in our teens called Phil McCracken.
