More names

Pocahontas McGinty does not exist. The Scotsman reports:
IT IS seen as the ultimate example of the trend for parents to name their children after the latest movie character or celebrity.
But while we have had Kylies, Britneys and Chardonnays, it seems that the Scottish baby named Pocahontas is no more than a myth.
After a quest that has lasted several months, a society dedicated to debunking urban myths has revealed that there are no children in the country who have been given that name.

What a disappointment.
