Ridiculous sportspersons names

My heads spinning since I posted it.

Anferenee Dijcksteel has just been released by Sunderland after 6 years.
His parents weren’t spellers.

Barry Dan O’Sullivan

The Kerry’s love a double barrell first name

Its generally got to do with the O’Sullivan surname.

So many O’Sullivans in Kerry so lads are given a second first name after their father or grand father (cant remember which) so Barry’s father or grandfather is called Dan (I presume)…its to distinguish him from another Barry O’Sullivan…think thats the reasoning behind it but i could be wrong.

Similar to all the Ryan family nicknames in Tipp and Limerick
