Fans online are hilariously discussing which football players are exclusively known by their full name.
Brighton's Billy Gilmour can only be called by his full name. Well, that's according to X user @clynch_abi's partner.
She took to social media to reveal that her fella refers to some footballers by their full name, giving Billy Gilmour as an example.

Taking to X, she wrote: "My fella said the other day there’s some footballers who for whatever reason we all exclusively call by their full name - e.g Billy Gilmour - and I can’t stop thinking about it, I want more examples."
People on social media flocked to her post as they gave their own examples and there are some belters.
One said: "Nick Pope."

A second tweeted: "Aaron Lennon."
A third added: "Dan James."
A fourth commented: "Harvey Barnes."
Another said: "Solly March."

So, Brighton have a couple with Billy Glimour and Solly March and you can't say Dan James' name without saying his full name.
There were other shouts for Aston Villa's Lucas Digne, former Tottenham forward Lucas Moura, ex-Newcastle United and Chelsea star Demba Ba and Premier League legend James Milner, among others.
Right, that's me just randomly saying players' full names to see which ones work and don't.... Dan Burn.
Which other players are exclusively known by their full name? Let us know.
