back to article Sofia Dark Knight Englundh protests footie chant slur

Our piece yesterday on Stockholm lass Sofia Englundh, prevented by the authorities from adopting the middle name "Dark Knight", prompted an email from the 19-year-old Heath Ledger fan protesting her treatment at the hands of the El Reg Bootnotes department. To recap, Ms Englundh's pitch to the Swedish National Tax Agency, aka …

    I don't believe it for a minute. Unless we see evidence that the email was actually from the aforementioned lady then we must assume that it is some saddo trying to cash in on the poor woman's plight.

    Until she sends a full-length photo of herself in a bikini* we will remain unconvinced!

    *Unless she's a right minger, in which case a photo of her driving licence will do!

    to be fair to her

    the drunken chant is more towards "Ing-er-land"

    And how could we be sure it was her bikini?

    Couldn't she remove it and show us the name tags?

    Dammit! Don't caring mothers still sew name tags into all clothing these days?

    Parenting skills really have gone downhill, haven't they.

    Wish we had that rule here!

    ...a blunt nej on the grounds that "first names can be rejected if they resemble surnames".

    Dammit, they'd have a hard time making that stick in the good ol' "anything's a name" US-of-A. Not to mention increasingly over here with the chav-tastic Connors, Taylors, Trents, Coles, Jordans, et al!

    OK, checked her out. The hair is totally mad!!

    Still, looks OK, so we will definitely need a bikini shot (hers or otherwise, Hans..!).

    Maybe she also has a tattoo... somewhere...

    Surnames as first names are great. They're not chavvy by definition. What about Spencer or Stirling or, ooh, Paterson? (Paterson Joseph is the name equivalent of a bald man with a beard but chavvy it ain't.)

    I kind of approve of Americans' enthusiasm for making up names, although the Palins are a nonsense too far.

    The Palins are our equivalent of your chavs. We call them white trash, but some call them Republicans.

    Are you sure she isn't a fan of the Electrocutioner?

    Ing-er-land

    AC above has it right. How can "Englundh" possibly be pronounced "Ing-er-land"? I don't even understand how one could manage to say it with three syllables. Much though I hate to support someone this sad against the beautiful people at El Reg, I think it's you lot that need to provide the proof in this case.

    I agree... that hair is... something... it kind of make me curious if things are like that all around for her...

    Simple solution

    She could always change her middle name to "Dark Kernigget".

    Mine's the one with the grail in the pocket.

    There're also some famous people with reverse name syndrome(RNS) - only one I can think of at the moment, however, is the only West Point graduate without his name on the list(he was given the boot). Suddenly I wonder what became of him and if he divorced that troublemaking wife of his.

    Although Danny may also have married a Swede, in point of fact the poster was not Danny.

    Perhaps the moderatrix can confirm the above post came from a user who is not, in fact, even British or living in the UK.

    You'll have to take my word for being married to a Swede.

    Oh yes, I'd like the five quid back in EUR please :-P

    Actually, iirc, Zappa was his real, actual, legal family surname. Italian (or Spanish?), I think.
