When I was in Sixth Form I started learning teacher's first names, and here were a few surprises:
My English Lit teachers were Welsh and Irish - Gwydion (!) and Fiona.
My (former) English teacher when I was younger was called Gita.
My German teachers were called Dipali "Dee" (Indian), Klara (East German) and Amelie (German).
My French teachers were Rim (Mahgreb), Jacinthe (French Caribbean) and Yael. Yael had a baby while I was in school and named her Ella (after her favourite student ¬__¬ very weird) Hadassah.
I had philosophy teachers named Marni and Sofia Inez.
Errrmmmm... my most-hated sports teacher was a Veronica. My form / maths teacher for a while was a Christopher, and my later form teacher was a Mairi. My physics teacher was a Brennan, my biology teacher was an Isobel.
My art teacher was a Gideon. He has two daughters with really awesome names.
Preeety worried you could find my old school with that info, but I hope not.
I'm not including surnames for an obvious reason.
I have a lot of my old teachers on facebook, and those I don't made a bad enough impression for a good while ...¬__¬

Not wanting to outdo you or anything, but I learned my teachers' names in year 7-onwards, as I spent a lot of time with the counsellors (and I still do), who have this document on the wall with a list of teachers full names. It's sort-of what I'm known for in my year, being able to give a teacher's first name from memory. How did you learn yours?
In terms of names, no one is called anything really unusual except for one teacher from Wales with a really obscure name that I daren't post here. A Biology teacher has the middle intial of W and I have a joke with myself that it stands for Wolfgang even though it probably doesn't.
Also, do you remember you did this 'around the world CAF' thing? You couldn't tell me where you got the names from in that, could you? Pretty please?
