    I know a Dick Richards ie. Richard Richards.
    Then they just get worse. A person up the road from me is called Morris Austin.

    And this just takes the cake. Can you think of a name that you could be sure that you'd get a box off a garda? Yep, I know someone called James Bond.
    The thing is, he's only in his 20's, so his parents must have known about the films.:eek:

    My mate knows a fella called James Bond too, never gets into clubs, bouncers think he's a smartass.
    I really wish i were joking here, but there's a guy in Tallaght called Paddy Hitler...no messing! i've seen his passport... scary

    TBH, I'm kinda jealous. To think of the craic I would have with that name. "I am the Paddy Hitler!"

    BTW, you're from Kildare so its probably the same James Bond. He lives near Kilcock. I know I shouldn't be giving so much personnel info on someone on boards but what the hell.:eek:

    Well, i saqw in your profile your from Kildare. We probably don't live too far from each other and its the same people. James Bond definetly because I can't imagine that name being too popular! There was another guy from Kildare who said he knows James Bond too. All I know now is that having a famous name does make you famous! (The episode of the Simpsons springs to mind)
