A recent poll has recently found one in three use comical names for different body parts like the "crown jewels". 1 Chris Taylor and Grime Gran hit the streets of London to find out what Brits call their Bits Credit: SWNS The study of 2,000 adults revealed genitals are the most popular body part to be given a nickname. This was closely followed by breasts, backsides, stomachs and feet. The research was commissioned by Sure Whole Body Deodorants which worked with TV personality and content creator Chris Taylor and Grime Gran, aka Margie. They hit the streets to find out what the public call different parts of the body. Chris said: "I've been in my fair share of sweaty situations – and it definitely helps to break the tension by using a nickname. 'Having chatted to Londoners, it's clear we all get embarrassed when we don't feel fresh.' The study found that respondents in Northern England and the Midlands prefer the term "crown jewels" for male genitalia. Whereas in the East of England, people said they liked to use "meat and two veg". Breasts also have a range of names with "melons" most popular in the Midlands and "the girls" most popular in the South. When it came to nicknames for feet, "footsies" was the preferred term in the South compared to "trotters" in the North. But while nearly half of respondents use nicknames for a laugh, 30% said they did so in a bid to feel more comfortable with their body. Nearly a third said they rely on alternative names to make conversation less awkward. Brits were also found to be more likely to give nicknames to the body parts they're self conscious at 66% while 13% admitted they use more colloquial terms daily. But the research revealed it's not just the names of body parts that leave people feeling self conscious. Over 68% said they worried about "FOBO" (Fear of Body Odour) in areas other than their underarms. Genitals, feet and backsides were the most common places people experienced bad odour. Alice Duffill, for Sure Whole Body Deodorant, which uses odour adapt technology to help tackle various odour types found across the body, said: 'Our research shows Brits have a cheeky sense of humour when it comes to their own bodies. 'But these playful nicknames aren't just for fun as they also help people speak more confidently about their bodies. 'Our research found that nearly half of Brits admit to fearing B.O. as a result of sweating, so we're proud to launch a UK-first product to help Brits feel confident in their bodies.' If you're an expert on what Brits call their bits and know your "bazookas" from your "paddles", you can take the quiz above.
