Sammy,

Obviously that is feasible. I know the name is used here in Young household, which used to possess a life-sized figure which rather resembled Reginald Younghusband.

I bet they are connected in some way!!!

Lotsa soldiers could have called Younghusband- Reggie of the Regi(regiment) lol. I woulda have called him , but you might not have wanted to say it to his face! Unless he liked a good chuckle, which many soldiers do!
