Names are about where you come from so of course the east are going to have different names to what we have here. If I moved to the east I would be called something different to what I am if they couldn't say it. It's got nothing to do with their religious sect.

I did not know the origin of Entwhistle Moses,I thought it was a Yorkshire name and that was why Bert Kwouk said he was using it in the TV series. He is a natural comedian alright like the others and I can't help laughing whenever I see it.

Had a mate in Uni from Malaysia called Chee Tan, funny thing was his brother was also called Chee Tan - my mates full name was Chee Meng Tan, and his brothers was Chee Mung Tan - how blxxdy lazy can his parent get ?
So, would it be considered OK if those of us with boring English names give ourselves slightly cooler sounding asian names then ?
Come on Moses, give me something sexy, hard, and with a hint of exotic mystery ( preferably that doesnt translate as anything rude ! ) ;0)
