slightly different angle but you see lots of trading names such as " J Knight & Sons" but I have never seen a "J Knight & daughters" - always struck me as odd - has nobody ever taken their daughters into the business at any time? |

I've seen a few daughters here, mainly farming type businesses |

There's a fish n chip shop in a Welsh valley. It's called "A Fish Called Rhondda".
Also a sandwich delivery service called "Swallows", driven by a young woman. I often wondered if she does  |
