Not sure if this has been done before,

To get the ball rolling here is:

1881
RG11/0128 75 38
29 St James's Place, St James, London

Winston (Master) Churchill, son, 6, Scholar, Woodstock, Oxford.

So excluding the fact that this has been done before on RC the first five to mind are:

Churchill Winston
Wilde Oscar
Marx Carl
Queen Victoria
Bowler Thomas

Does this say something about our us ???  ;D
