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 ...¬__¬
