I needed a bit of light relief from the insane daily news, and came across The Strange Name Movie, and I'm so happy I did. So funny, well directed and edited. This is something we can all relate to, as I'm sure we have all known people with weird, funny or famous names. The characters were most entertaining, down to earth and fascinating. Give it a try!

Must see - I wish it didn’t end - really fun to watch! From real, lovely people dealing with almost being a celebrity, to explaining how they live with names many people couldn’t imagine having. Lot’s of laughs and surprises!

A funny romp through the life of people pegged from birth for strange reactions, double-takes, humiliation, and exhilaration. And the challenges of making such a movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
