going back to the name translation posts earlier, it's funny this should come up.
my mate was telling me the other day that many years ago, the Dutch didn't use to have surnames and when it was introduced, it was taken as a bit of a joke by the public.
so Ricky wolfshop is one of many.
Rijkaard = Moneybags
Van bommel = bomb threat
Basten = Bark
Persie = dispersion
Braafheid = goodness
i don't know whether i've been royally stitched up here, but it does seem to work!
"Frank Moneybags" and "mark of bomb threat". - genius.

Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink is a good one.
Apparently of actually means or in Dutch, so it's the equivalent of an English double-barrelled name.
Bastian Schweinsteiger has one of the more ridiculous ones.
It translates as pig climber.

how did you get this? that's not what google translate says!
still, it's bloody awesome!
PNP - schweinsteiger's is class! how did you find that out?
I had an idea that it meant pig- something SpursRoo, but I didn't know what.
I think someone mentioned it during the commentary for a game, funnily enough.
Have you seen his missus?
Insert joke about a lovely pair here.

I've heard various different meanings for it Lidls, but I believe that the literal translation is climber.
It means cager in the Bavarian dialect, apparently.
I think the older German would have it as Pig penner, so pig farmer would be the most appropriate translation, if not the funniest.

German's not my language, but I can confirm as a Dutchman some of the Dutch above are true. There are many jokes made about van Bommel and how much of a bomb threat he is 
Bronckhorst - Could just as easily be one of those sausages of theirs!...orrible things, pureed lips, willies and other ****e. 
That's bratwurst, Notso and it's German, not Dutch.
I think that the contents depends upon who you get them from too, just like the sausages in this country.
Check the pork content on some of them...

I'm starting to worry about your in depth knowledge of sausage! personally I just don't like that shape anywhere near my mouth!
Someone might suggest that your over-sensitivity in that area is down to some deep-rooted sexual issues, Notso.
I wouldn't, of course...

A little off topic, so I hope people will forgive me, but this is what I was talking about.

I was going put mmm!, but that could misinterpreted as mmm! nice, instead of mmm! pondering, before any such misunderstandings occur and unecessary accusations of sausage jockeying get slung...we'll leave that one there!

They do have something very similar in name in Holland PNP, I've seen them at scoff stalls at the bike racing in Assen, my mates tried them...gristley, garlicy **** was how one described it! ending up in the bin. If I'm going to eat anything like that chicken or burgers for me.
...I can just see the tightwad from Oldham making his own!...I feel sorry for the owners of all those missing cats!
