The honest truth is I was very nearly Christened just that, one of my parent changing their mind at the last minute. The kids in the Village I used live in did call me Victor. I had a kiddies swing park right next to my cottage and was always popping out when the language/noise got out of hand.
A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools!!

Thanks everybody. My accountants secretary told me that Her husband was born on VE Day... I said,''Yes but I was born on the VE Day.'' ''So was he,'' She replied. Well a couple of years ago I met the lady shopping in the supermarket with her husband in tow. She introduced me to him. I really had to force myself to stop myself from blurting out .... ''Blimey don't you look old.'' When I told Mrs Jenks the story she asked...... ''Have you looked in the mirror lately?''
I'm pretty sure my dear old Mum (dead now) would have preferred it, if I had been born a month or two earlier.
