IN IRELAND WE’VE developed a very unique approach to swearing and there’s an entire lexicon that doesn’t have the same impact abroad.
Whether you’re saying something is shite, telling someone they’re a dope or even just relieving your childhood fascination with words like poo they aren’t words you’d expect to see as surnames.
Still, in the US they aren’t burdened by such things and a quick trawl through US directory White Pages shows that they are people with all manner of hilarious surnames.
