My Eritrean living in Sweden was 170cm / 5'6" weight 112kg 246lb. Bit unusual but possible I guess.

Random name factoid: In England, J is a valid first name and A is a valid surname. So someone's full name could be J A.

I wonder how many databases would accept that.

I've got a colleague who's legal first name is "G". He's listed as "Gee" in about 50% of the places he needs to register (including some important places where there might be future legal ramifications of not using his proper legal name - I'm looking at _you_ Crazy Domains web/database programmer!)
