A while back I came across a news story in which a courier firm employed a transport manager called John Crook and then ended up being called before the authorities for various offences.
It gets better: the company was defended by a solicitor called Jeremy Fear.

There's a solicitor's practice in Leamington Spa called Wright Hassall.
Some years ago there used to be a motoring correspondent for one of the national papers whose name was Laurie Manifold. I actually met him and it was his real name.
