Players with double-barrelled surnames

[Taunton Blue Genie]

I can only remember one or two players with double-barrelled surnames in the seventies. One was Ian Storey-Moore and the other was a QPR player whose name I can't remember. These days we have a plethora of such nomenclatures (including Leeds goalkeeper last night, Bradley Peacock-Farrell) and I wondered if it's more down to divorced parents rather than the middle-class taking up the sport.....

I’m just waiting for players to emerge with truly double barrelled surnames, like Andy Smith-Wesson, or Jurgen Heckler-Koch. Then we can all go home happy.

Wait for the next generation where two doubled barrelled parents have a child.

I quite like the idea of joining together both of your parents surnames, so I think I am going to call myself John Smith-Smith from now on.

In the late 1920's we had a player called Tom Potter-Smith - our first double-barrelled gentleman I reckon.

Mixed race. Ward-Prouse ... Caucasian.

What would happen if Bradley Wright-Phillips married Loftus-Cheek’s sister? Their kids would be quadruple barreled ?

Who’d have ever imagined that the girl me & ‘Where’s your wife’ Stanley adopted would go on to marry the heir to the throne eh?

My daughter got married recently, and she has refused to change her surname to her husband's surname. There is no requirement in law to do this, and it is a throwback to the days when a wife was the property of her husband. Not sure what surname any children they have will end up with.

Indeed. It's strange how tradition still trumps the concept of equality. In Iceland siblings have different surnames, of course.
