Hairyballs Chesterfield, Blubberdick Curdlesnoot and Hairycooch Custardbath are among the names that spawned when I visited the Benedict Cumberbatch Name Generator Tumblr site.

The English actor has long been ridiculed for his elfish appearance and OTT name that drips of privilege and an enormous trust fund. Now, thanks to Tumblr, we can all generate our very own fantasy names to impress the ladies everywhere.
