She is real!

The picture is not connected to the post content, just a picture of something unusual that stood out!
One of the lighter moments from yesterday was that as we sat in the cinema at the end of the film, bracing ourselves for putting our wet layers back on and venturing outside, the credits were rolling and we noticed one name, Bizzy Day, that almost seemed as if it couldn’t be real.
So of course after getting home and dry again I had to investigate, and sure enough Bizzy Day is a real person, who has worked in film production and various other theatrical roles.
I wonder if her mother was having a busy day when she was born? What are the other members of her family called?
I can never decide whether an unusual name is a handicap or an asset. At school surely the unfortunate child must be the subject of playground teasing and the snide remarks of teachers (although not as much as in the past now that more ‘unusual’ names are becoming much less unusual). But later in life maybe it’s a way to get noticed and remembered?

I wonder if her parents chose that pun on purpose?
Once a young woman joined our dive club and her name was Jennifer Taylor. No-one thought anything of it until one person mentioned that Jenny Taylor sounded rather like genitalia... of course after that it was impossible to forget it and difficult not to subconsciously mispronounce her name!

I'm sure Bizzy is just a nickname but I wonder if she has a brother named Newton...

Doesn't the Bizzy mean police officer ? At school,the other children must have made fun of her for the unusual name.Maybe the reason why she keeps the name is that it is of sentimental value.

@Fleura I have got into a habit of looking up new words in a dictionary.

In asia countries, people with names which sound vulgarity is even worst. Just imagine how the classmates jeer and tease them when they were young

Maybe that's the person's "stage" name. At least I hope so. Have a good weekend.
