I spelled Bill's last name wrong. So kill me. If I had a nickel for everyone spelled my name "Bryan" rather than "Brian", or for that matter, how many times when paying bills over the phone, the employee called me " mam", I'd make Jeff Bezos look like a homeless person.

Who is this 'Buru' of whom you speak?
Boru
Good question. I've always thought it alluded to Irish king Brian Boru, but that mighty be a bit too esoteric
Irish people will often tell you they are descended from The Kings of Ireland. Not a all unusual, most Irish people are. In days of yore, Ireland was arse deep in small kingdoms and kings.
There is a 'village' in Clare with my family's name, Ballywhatever. Not sure which came first. Today there is a church ruin and a very old grave yard. The name remains on detailed maps of Ireland. .
