Footballing nominative determinism 09:43 - Oct 6 with 11078 viewsZx1988

A random thought popped into my head this morning: it's a pity that Ishmael Miller never spent any time at Rotherham during his career.

Are there any other current/former players whose names would have made them very much at home at a particular club?

Nile Ranger at QPR?

And well done Petr Čech for making the Czech national team despite having a missing letter. And on going to Wikipedia to copy and paste his name complete with caron I have found out that he is still playing but at ice hockey, and that the keeper in ice hockey is called a goaltender:

There are multiple opportunities for players who could represent a city with a couple of rival clubs in it; Peter Sheffield, Bob Manchester etc., but I'll probably get a slap on the wrist for suggesting any specific women footballers who I feel would be a good match for either of the Bristols in a nominative determinism sense.
