It is that woman who seems a spot unchuffed, although I doubt it'll come to
anything. Hopefully not, it is a nice name, I'm surprised you can copyright
something as generic as two names in a row, I mean, can you legally define
the difference between John and Dave, or something - or Robson and Jerome,
Renee and Renato? Bob Carolgees and Spit the dog? I dunno. A subtle change
might work. Belle end Sebastian perhaps.  Belle end Semenstain maybe? I
wonder if she could actually take them to court over that issue, would Bel
and Sebastian be enough? Do we have any lawyers in the house?

Cheers,
    Keith.
