Nothing of any note to report about their footballing prowess, but what a cracking pair of names these two possess, surely the most aristocratic and upper-classed names you could ever see on a team sheet.

 

Any others out there that can top this pair of fox-hunting, pipe smokers?

Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink always sounded classy. 

 

It is basicly a double barrelled name and nothing more

Actually I think i am correct in saying it dates back a few centuries.  The translation is Vennegoor or Hesselink.  Apparently the women who got married didnt want to give up her maiden name.

I love the OF rather than VAN. Very classy that ;)

In my day, a double-barrelled name meant aristo. They were going to be the first up against the wall, come the revolution. Don't know what to make of it now :(
