Longstanding readers will remember that Rudyard Kipling was named after Rudyard Lake in Staffordshire.
But where did the lake, in reality a canal reservoir, get its name?
It was named after - and this is our Trivial Fact of the Day - Ralph Rudyard, who is reputed to have slain Richard III at Bosworth.
