Hey everybody. Everybody loves random facts, right? So I've created this topic to discuss about them.

They must be interesting and real (no need to cite sources, but they must be real) and (according to the AG rules) they must have 7 or more words.

Let me begin.

In England a woman named Ceejay Epton (age 22) decided to change her name after her son was born. The reason: she wanted to help the baby to learn the alphabet faster. Then she changed her name to

"Ceejay A Apple B Boat C Cat D Dog E Elephant F Flower G Goat H House I Igloo J Jellyfish K Kite L Lion M Monkey N Nurse O Octopus P Penguin Q Queen R Robot S Sun T Tree U Umbrella V Violin W Whale X X-Ray Y Yo-yo Z Zebra Terryn Feuji-Sharemi"

She got the idea from a friend that wanted to be named "Pink" and decided to change her name too.

The good news is that on England, the name changing process is easy and costs £10

If you look at the sun right now, you are technically looking back in time. It takes eight minutes for light from the sun to reach Earth.

That's true with any star you look at. The further away a star is, the further back in time you're looking.
