I think its a little too much to have that much middle names. Poor child. I hope she doesn't get pick on in school.


LONDON (AFP) - Baby Autumn Brown has a name to live up - in fact she has over 25 of them.

The little girl's mother Maria, in keeping with her boxing-mad family's bizarre tradition, decided to give her 25 middle names - all culled from the greatest exponents inside the ring.

Her full name, which left register office staff in Perton, Wolverhampton reeling is: Autumn Sullivan Corbett Fitzsimmons Jeffries Hart Burns Johnson Willard Dempsey Tunney Schmeling Sharkey Carnera Baer Braddock Louis Charles Walcott Marciano Patterson Johansson Liston Clay Frazier Foreman Brown.

Maria told the city's Express and Star: "The whole thing came about because both my mum and dad are obsessed with boxing and have a bit of a daft sense of humour.

"When I was young I couldn't ever remember my name. It took me to the age of 10 to memorise it all."

The 33-year-old mother added: "I'm hoping Autumn has a good sense of humour with her name. It's never done me any harm though."

A little too much for me. You think they could have done something a little creative with those 25 names if they were that big into boxing.

I am sure this will be one that will change her name for sure when she's old enough. I was talking to my Vonage man the other day and he has a granddaughter named Brontosaurus. They call her "Bronty" for short. He said she has already decided to change her name legally to Bronty when she is old enough.
