April (April in Paris) = Aris (from Arstotle = Bottle, from Bottle and glass = Arse)
Aris = arse (from Aristotle, see above, or Bottle)
Attila (Attila the Hun) = two-one (2i, an upper 2nd class UK university degree) Barnet (Barnet fair) = hair Barney (Barney Rubble) = trouble, now also means argument Basil (Basil Fawlty) = balti (curry) Battle Cruiser = Boozer (public house Bird (bird lime) = Time (prison) Boat (boat race) = face Bobble (Bobble hat and scarf) = laugh ("you're having a bobble", ie., you cannot be serious) Bottle (Bottle and glass) = arse (also meaning courage, from the allusion to loss of rectal control under pressure) Bowler Hat = Cat Brahms (Brahms and Liszt) = pissed Brass Tacks = Facts ('let's get down to brass tacks') Brassic (boracic lint) = skint (penniless) Bread (bread and honey) = money Bristols (Bristol Cities) = titties (breasts) Brown Bread = dead Bubble (Barf/Bath) = laugh ('you 'avin' a bubble?..') Bubble (and Squeak) = Greek (a Greek person), or a magistrate or judge (beak) or wife (based on rhyming bubble with trouble, from trouble and strife) (Buckshee is not cockney rhyming slang for 'free', as some sources suggest, including here previously. I am grateful to Huw Thomas for pointing me in the right direction about the actual origins of Buckshee.) Butchers (butchers hook) = look ('give us butchers..') Canoes = shoes Chalfonts (Chalfont St Giles) = piles (Haemorrhoids) Charlie (Charlie Hunt) = (yes you guessed it again - remember it next time you call someone a right charlie) Chewy toffee = coffee China (china plate) = mate ('me old china') Christmas crackers = knackers (testicles) Christmas crackered - knackered (worn out, exhausted, broken, etc) Cloud seven = heaven Cobblers (cobblers awls, or cobblers stalls) = Balls ('you're talking cobblers') Coco/Cocoa = say so (see variations below) Cream crackers/crackered = knackers/knackered (testicles/worn out - also producing the expression 'creamed' meaning exhausted or beaten) Crust (crust of bread) = head Daisy Roots = boots Desmond (Desmond Tutu) = two-two (2ii, a lower 2nd class UK university degree) Dickie Bird = word Dickie Dirt = shirt Ding dong = sing song (now evolved to mean argument or fight) Dipstick = prick (bet you never knew that was rhyming slang) Dog and bone = phone Douglas Hurd = third (third class university degree) or turd D'Oyly Carte = fart Duch (duchess of Fife) = wife ('me old Duch') Duke of Cork = talk Dunlop Tyre = liar Dustbin lids = kids Earwig = twig (understand, to catch on - now evolved to mean eavesdrop) Elephants (elephants trunk) = drunk Farmers (farmer Giles) = piles (haemorrhoids) Flying duck = (yes you guessed it - and now more commonly evolved back to give the expression 'couldn't give a flying fuck') Frog and Toad = road Gary Glitter = Bitter (the beer, as in 'a pint of Gary') Geoff Hurst = first (a 1st class university degree) German band = hand (particularly used in plural: 'Germans' for hands - apparently German bands were commonly seen in London in the early 1900s - I am grateful to C Isaacson for confirming that 'Germans' was a common expression for hands in 1950s London) Greens (greengages) = wages (money) Ginger (ginger beer) = queer (homosexual) Gipsy's (gipsy's kiss) = piss (urination - this is the noun sense of a piss rather than verb 'to piss'. First recorded in the 1970s the original usage was for example "I need a gipsy's" although more recently usage can drop the apostrophe-S, so that the word gipsy stands alone to mean piss, and the full expression is inaccurately interpreted as 'gipsy kiss'. Other less common cockney rhyming slang kiss associations meaning piss include French kiss, cuddle and kiss, ta ta kiss, and goodnight kiss.) Half inch = pinch (steal) Hampstead Heath = teeth Hillman Hunter = punter (customer - Hillman Hunter was a car from the 1960s) Hit and miss = kiss or piss Holy ghost = toast Iron (iron hoof) = poof (homosexual) Jack Jones = alone, (on your own - 'On your Jack') Jacob's (Crackers) = knackers (testic
