My hubby was born in Lincoln so he's a 'yellow belly'. I was born in Staffordshire so I have no idea what that is. Louise |

I am a Cheshire Cat - but did you know that there are two schools of thought re the Hampshire Hog - that it is a sheep not a pig! There was uproar when the bronze pig was put at the Castle as apparently the hog is a term for a young sheep - any shepherds out there? Ann |

My mum was a Kentish maid brought up in the countryside, my dad came from the town Stoke Newington, so I am a suburban mix. Now live in Hitchin and the rugby club are called the Hedgehogs, and they have a white hedgehog on their shirts. nell |

I was born in Sussex - so I guess that makes me Silly!!

Dorothy, 've got no idea why people are called 'Silly' if they come from Sussex - just always had it thrown at me as a child. My sister was born in Gosport (Hog) and my brothers in Malta - that must make them 'aliens' LOL I suppose the real term is Silly Sussexer maggie |

Being a Glaswegian, we usually get called Weegies. Don't think Edinburgh folk have a 'name' Christine |

If you're born within Conwy town walls, you're a Jackdaw for some reason. I would have thought Seagull would have been more appropriate. |
