As the Olympics draws to a close, this is possibly my favourite related piece of trivia.
One of the US athletics team, making her debut at the Olympics was a 400m hurdler called Queen Harrison. In fact, her full name is Queen Quedith Earth Harrison.
Now the emergence of off names in America has been catalogued many times before, I have no doubt. But Queen’s family is pretty impressive, even by these standards.
She has 8 direct brothers and sisters and another 14 half-siblings from her dad’s previous relationships. Her brothers and sisters have names such as Victory, Muun, Empress and Kingmaster.
My personal favourite, however, is her brother, whose name is: God Goldin Zig Zag Zig Allah Harrison.
I’m not sure there’s any need to say anything else.
