“Where DO they get these names? I’d be embarrassed...”
Actually, I used to just laugh and move on until I really thought about it.
These names tell us so much about exactly who was involved when the details are somehow omitted from the body of the news story.
Which they invariably are, in the holy name of PC...

I've been fascinated by these names for maybe four years now and have set up a spreadsheet to save them. (sounds nuts, sure but lots of laughs)
I won't even tell you how many I have to date. Let me just say the two in this story are far from the oddest around.
