Does what it says on the tin. Footballers whose name is inappropriate in describing their ability or way of playing the game. Such examples:

Lionel Messi
Claudio Gentile
Tom Cleverley
David Speedie
Clive Walker

Can NSC offer up any more suggestions? The more creative, the better.

I think the O/P meant footballers whose names doesn't match their style/appearance, rather than just ones with funny names, per se.

How could we have forgotten Dennis Wise? Danny Invincible was a great suggestion. I reckon there's a few others mentioned so far that are actually pretty accurate descriptions of their ability/character (Windass, Shittu). Keep the suggestions coming.
