There was Finisterre becoming FitzRoy.

Without googling, who, or what, was Fitzroy?


Vice Admiral Fitzroy - a pioneer of weather forecasting...


And, of course, Finisterre was the man who used to dance with Ginger
Rogers.

I'll get my top hat, tie up my white tie, and brush off my tails...


Well, that went down a storm!
