    I caught a bit of it. I couldn't work out if it was just one long advert for Ikea on the BBC?

    Um, Levi is a real name. So is Mercedes.

    Real maybe. Good is another question.

    IMO if you named your kid IKEA or TESCO you'd have to be a sandwich short of a picnic.

    Nah, they were actually being really horrid about it. I'm guessing that everything cancelled itself out in terms of advertising.

    FIAT isn't a person's name

    it stands for Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino

    Now Ford is a name

    I'm not sure about Mercedes, but isn't Levi not an old Hebrew name for boys, like David etc?

    Heh.

    Now just imagine something like, Samsung Nokia Smith. It would have to be a Chavette that would call their kid something like that.
