Wasn't there a rugby player called Billy Twelvetrees from Sevenoaks? Think his Dad was a tree surgeon, as well.

I work in the countryside access field, and once went to a meeting where the participants surnames were Hill, Thorn, Hill, Woods, Walker....and Jarvis. We asked the last one to leave the room!

But on the football side of things, my favourite is Mark De Man from Belgium.
