I was about to start a thread on unusual first names but this beat me to it.
Who calls their daughter Bristol and why?Has the mother ever been to the historic city?Perhaps she was enchanted with the west county accent and the cider,or was it the suspension bridge that she really liked?Perhaps the child was conceived there.
Will the baby be called Avonmouth or Portishead or Filton?I particularly like Lulsgate Bottom.
Bristol is sometimes used in the UK instead of the word breast,perhaps she should have called her daughter jugs or rack,that may have had a better ring to it if that was her intention!!
I believe that somebody in New Zealand wanted to call their twins Benson and Hedges(a tobacco company) but it was disallowed!
