A woman from Denbighshire is giving eBay bidders the chance to remname her. Eileen De Bont has posted 50 different names inlcuding Scunthorpe Travelodge. The highest bidder gets to pick a name from the list and Eileen will then change her name by deed poll. "It's all very silly but i'm deadly serious about changing it," explained Eileen. "I'll even call myself Scunthorpe Travelodge if it's the winning bid, so watch out Paris Hilton." Half the money will go to Children In Need, with the mother-of-two keeping the rest so she can afford to give her own children a nice Christmas.Special Items
