Gemma Worrall, 20, from Blackpool, sent a tweet referring to 'barraco barner' as 'our president'

Opening the front door of her smart terrace house just seconds away from Blackpools beachfront, Gemma Worralls mother looks decidedly anxious.

Can I take your name please? she asks, clearly very nervous. I tell her, she half-smiles warily and allows me inside. Sorry, she says. But you cant be too careful.

Its a rather fitting greeting for a family who must be more aware than most of the perils of getting a name wrong.
