To be fair, my other half regularly tells me I have the mental age, and attention span, of a 3 yr old and living with me is like having another effing child!

Jorge is an equivalent of George, Goran looks similar to George, no idea where Ohm comes into it and maybe Albert Frederick Arthur ....... was better known a George something?

The last part reminds me of the previous MIL, during the war she met a bloke called Bill who promised he would write whilst he was away on duty but she never received a single letter from Bill. However she started to receive letters from someone called George, she didn't know any Georges so threw the letters away unopened.

After the war she met Bill again and wasn't interested as he had broke a promise to send letters which annoyed Bill as he pleaded innocence saying he wrote every month. Eventually he realised that although everyone had called him Bill from a young age his real first name was George and the army put letters in generic wrappings to ensure no one knew where they came from with just the senders name on, hence George.
