A newborn Wolverhampton tot has been handed a knockout name, being named after 25 boxing champs.
The baby, from Perton, who weighted in at 6lbs 15oz, has inherited the names from her mum Maria to keep up the novel family tradition.
Her six-week-old’s full name is Autumn, Sullivan, Corbett, Fitzsimmons, Jeffries, Hart, Burns, Johnson, Willard, Dempsey, Tunney, Schmeling, Sharkey, Carnera, Baer, Braddock, Louis, Charles, Walcott, Marciano, Patterson, Johansson, Liston, Clay, Frazier, Foreman, Brown.
The tradition started with Autumn’s boxing-clever grandparents Brian and Sue – who gave their three children no less than 103 names between them.
Autumn’s aunty Becky said: "We’re all named after different boxers – my brother is bare-knuckle boxers, Maria is named after Heavyweight and all my names are after British Heavyweight boxers."
