Just before the start of a recent session of Matthew Huttons' excellent Monthly Tax Reviews (MTR), a discussion ensued as to the different names that some firms had for their Estate Planning teams.
One lady said that her group were called 'The Wills Girls' (or was that 'Willing'?).
My favourite though was the lady who said that her partners referred to her team as 'The Deads'. She also made a follow up comment that I didn't quite catch about her husband's view of this description. I'd best not speculate as to what he might have said!
I'd be grateful for further suggestions of unusual names for such teams, by way of comments on this thread or by email.
