Robin Mahfood? Oh come on, that has to be made up
New Scientist had an obsession with finding silly names like this before, they even came up with a name for when a person's name also describes their job.

There's a Mark Hunt that works in my office. I'm really gutted about this because I wasn't there the day the huge fat woman from reception came downstairs looking for him and shouted "HAS ANYONE SEEN MARK HUNT" across the whole office.

I used to go to school with a bloke called Craig Bates. Sounds pretty inoccuous, until the head of year barges into registration asking where 'Master Bates' is... I am sure to this day he did mean it that way, and how he kept a straight face I don't know.
