“Ethelred The Unready”?
Now, there’s a name that will strike fear in the hearts of your enemies.
“”Who is leading them?”
“Ethelred The Unready.”
“They couldn’t get Steve The Sleepy?”
Brings to mind Louis the Fat, who ruled France a few decades later.
I should check before typing this (in case it has ULready been posted), but Ethelred the Unready is a modern joke, used to help UK kids remember the name. His nick was Unraed, which means without counsel, or counsel-less, given because of his practice of making up his mind and just charging on in.
