The people in the northern half of England had a poor view of Londoners, to the point they were likened to a cockerels egg (Of all things - Bobo). People of London, at the time, were very insulted by this. Nowadays, the word Cockney is in everyday use by many. Maybe they don't realise it is an insult!

I found this:

Quoting:The etymology of Cockney has long been discussed and disputed. One explanation is that "Cockney" literally means cock's egg, a misshapen egg such as sometimes laid by young hens. It was originally used when referring to a weak townsman, opposed to the tougher countryman and by the 17th century the term, through banter, came to mean a Londoner (Liberman, 1996). Today's natives of London, especially in its East End use the term with respect and pride - `Cockney Pride'.)

...though it came to be only those Londoners born within the sound of Bow bells could actually be called Cockneys - I guess it's kind of an inverted snobbery.  I guess you could say that as it's not been an insult for a couple of hundred years, it would be surprising if any Londoner was insulted by the term ;-)

On the same principle, what about Sir Ius, the dog star. Does that mean, if there were three of them, it'd be a Three Dog Knight? ;D

Yes, but I wouldn't send a knight out on a dog like that ;-)
