A man who changed his name to Lucifer Of-Darkness had his assault charge called at court on Friday the 13th.
Of-Darkness, 41, is accused of punching a man in Edinburgh, Scotland. Formerly Berkani Nahim, Of-Darkness allegedly caused severe injury to Christopher Jamieson on May 29.
Julie Torley, defending, told Sheriff Derek O’Carroll at Edinburgh Sheriff Court that her client had changed his name.
She said: “This gentleman is in custody. Firstly my lord, he has legally changed his name to Lucifer Of-Darkness, by deed poll. That’s his official name. First name is Lucifer, and second name is Of-Darkness.”
The sheriff smiled. He asked: “Is the Of capitalised?”
Torley said in response: “Yes, and there is a hyphen between the Of and Darkness.”
Sheriff O’Carroll added: “So is his surname Darkness, or Of-Darkness”
He was told: “Of-Darkness.”
Lucifer Of-Darkness was remanded in custody as the case continues.
