Only in England

Why is it that in England you can get away with calling a bank "Lloyds".
Seriously I always joked it would be hillarious to make a bank called "Bills Bank" and have people actually use it.

I could NEVER take a company like that seriously. Now if they renamed themselves "Imperial Bank" or something.. sure I can dig it.

Only in England can you call a corporate something so lax, and end up getting away with it.
I guess I am just not used to the name thing. I mean back home if some dude called his furniture store "Ted's" and charged 25% less than United... I would still go to United because it just SOUNDS better.
