Isn't Beanie a common nickname for those called Rebecca? Or is that just my private school experiences?

There's probably something deep and meaningful about it that a psychiatrist would have a field day with.
Wasn't there a Bunty in the Pullein-Thompson pony books, or am I thinking of the Famous Five?

when you are no longer a child at heart...
is Daisy her real name, i don't think it is actually. her father is/was Dave Dick, who won the Grand National iirc, so i've never thought her name was funny, for some reason.

Hey BBBBBaydale - you fit right in
Have you thought about becoming Bicky?
Don't remember Bunty from Famous Five so she must have been a rider too

Bicky Baydale-McDoughnut.
How does that sound?
And Bunty was a comic, I've just checked. How embarrassingly does that age me?

Chloe, there was a Don at Cambridge when my ex- was there, who rejoiced in the surname Treblecock. The 'bedders' (cleaners) all carefully pronounced this "Trebilcoe", while he proudly and defiantly pronounced it Treble-cock. we used to routinely have hysterics over this reverse-snobbery, as well as the name.

Did you not adopt me at Isleham last year, mum?
In which case, and as Richard doesn't event, I shall "borrow" his name.

It might have made my evening had I not fallen asleep during Mastermind and only just woken up. My husband and I have always joked that we'll have a kid called Badger (to be said in a very upper-class sort of bark). It would be best if he went on to become a Wing-Commander or suchlike, but bounding round Badders would probably do just as well.
Luckil the chance of me having a kid atm is about the same as me bounding round Badders so we should be OK on that one!
