England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford's dad, Lee Pickford, changed the family surname to avoid teasing during his school days. Lee changed the surname by deed poll to escape the 'piggy' taunts from his schoolmates. This childhood name change likely spared Jordan from similar teasing as he pursued his football career. Jordan Pickford, who has over 60 international caps, made his senior debut with Sunderland in 2016 before transferring to Everton in 2017. His grandfather expressed immense pride in Jordan's achievements. Jordan's wife Megan has been seen supporting him at Euro 2024, and they have two children together. [f96fe009]
