UK Man Renames Himself "Stormhammer Deathclaw Firebrand"

Posted by samzenpus on from the what's-in-a-name? dept.

Why would you want to be plain old Richard Smith when you could be Stormhammer Deathclaw Firebrand? From the article: "Smith, whose friends have traditionally known him by the nickname Spiff, decided that even that nickname wasn't enough to keep him happy. So the 41-year-old care worker from Carlisle has changed his name by deed poll to Stormhammer Deathclaw Firebrand." It's no Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFate, but it's alright.

    This makes me want to change my name to something incredible. Of course I need the middle name Danger. Maybe "Badass Danger Punch"
