My favourite growing up was the man named ‘Steve Pig’ in my dads phone – I don’t think he had a pig
What do you think you’re saved in their phones as?
Just makes sense though
As someone who is 39, currently sitting in the pub, and has several contacts named like this: fuck you.
You recently moved house?
But yeah I also have an Adam Boiler, James Plumber etc. It is how a lot of surnames came about in the first place to be fair.
Are you also a character in Toast of London?
Are you Bob Mortimer?
Everyone needs a Euan sparky they are scarce
Same with their distant cousin Harry plumber
Isn’t this how many surnames were invented?
You’ve reinvented surnames.
Anglo-saxon names are top tier.
Checking my contacts list, my fave is Carter the Unstoppable Roofer.
I’m 28, I label almost all my contacts including those I meet outside of work.
I dont even do names anymore: Boiler man, water man….
Not a man and perilously close to 50 and i have a John the window in my contacts. Guess what he does?
I’m glad it’s not just me who does this 😂
When I worked in a village pub 20+ years ago, somebody phoned the landline “Is Steve in? His dinner is ready”. I looked round, there were 5 Steves. “Which one?”. “Farmer”.
Sorted.
Euan Sparky, Steve Flooring and Nigel Window, those just look like names Bob Mortimer would read read out on Would I lie to You when asked about a band he was in as David Mitchell sobs in confusion
Some of the favourites from my phone book:
Johnny Openreach
Sky Losers
Bellends
Mr Arms
James Thingy
Most people do this regardless of their age and I doubt it is exclusively British men who do it.
I’ve got some names for ya Bob…
Yes.
Notable names are Dave, Other Dave, Dave the Bastard, Her Mother, Firstborn, Secondborn and Jack the Gas.
The best one of my phone is Kevin Cat Flap.
What do you mean, Ive been doing this for my scouts group logistics and accomodation contacts since I was 15
Wendy wheelchair no doubt just out of view.
Careful, this is an indicator of drug supply!
Highlights from my contact list;
Cunty McCuntface
Fat Goku
Not a Drug Dealer
Stinky Susan
Her
Dog Nonce
Nigel Window sounds like one of Bob Mortimers friends.
I’ve got Matt Floor. It’s not his real name, just a cover name.
Who the hell is Peter Proctologist babe???
Lol I have quite a few contacts stored as Dave White, Dave Green!
I do that for certain people but not everyone. I would never have one that says Steve Friend
