Being a dedicated Holmesian, I knew Conan Doyle originally had Sherlock as Sherrinford, but I admit that until a few days ago I had no idea John Watson was originally Ormond Sacker.

Ormond Sacker. ORMOND. I HAVE NEVER FALLEN IN LOVE WITH A NAME AS HARD AND FAST AS I FELL FOR ORMOND.

Plot idea: Sherlock finds out that Johns parents were initially going to call him 'Ormond' and that 'Daddy Watson' is actually John and Harriet's step father who their mum married when they were 2 years old (someone the original father died). Johns biological fathers surname was actually 'Sacker' and 'Mummy Watson' was married to him, the marriage ended when he died. From then on Sherlock makes a point to call John 'Ormond Sacker' whenever he can with the excuse that it is a lot less boring.

Yeah its a silly little plot-bunny but still. XD

That could be why John is suspicious in this comic-He knew he was nearly called Ormond and is now suspicious that Sherlock knows it too. XD

I love John's suspicious look in the last panel.

I had never known that John's name was once Ormand, and I laughed so hard that I almost choked.
