They say you can find your stripper name by combining the name of your first pet with the street you grew up on. Keeping that in mind, you may someday find yourself trying to figure out how to politely decline the awkward, compulsory advances of Miss Fluffy Lara Croft. As reported in the Derby Telegraph, the hero of the Tomb Raider series in one of eight potential names for two stretches of a road in the UK city Derby, which was the home of Core Design, the original studio behind Lara.
Surprisingly, Lara Croft is not our favorite option, as the idea of being badgered into buying Scruffy John Flamsteed a $13 drink is just too wonderful to imagine. Voting is currently being conducted via a poll on Derby's official website.

Jesus, they've only just realised?
I live in Derby and this was in the paper early this year (January-March).
Guess Derby isn't much of an internet kind of city :p
It'll be cool to see it happen, i imagine it might even get opened by the Lara Croft rep walking around these days.
I miss the days of walking to EIDOS =[
