North London Man Changes Name To Bacon Doublecheeseburger

Not The Onion!!!

A man from north London has changed his name by deed poll to Bacon Double Cheeseburger.

Simon Smith, from Muswell Hill, said he fancied a name change and the Burger King favourite was the first thing that popped into his head.

He told the Sunday People: “A name is the least important part of your personality. It’s given to you by someone else.”

“Bacon Double Cheeseburger was the first name I came up with.”

The 33-year-old is one of a record-breaking 85,000 people who changed their name last year.

Others decided to name themselves over popular footballers like Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Man Utd star Wayne Rooney.

One couple called themselves Mr and Mrs Amazing, while a man preferred to be referred to as Bruce Wayne, the secret identity of Batman.
