I wonder what's with that X McXface thing. Yes, I've heard something about Boaty McBoatface (whatever that is), but is the Boatface thing original, or is it some kind of obscure American meme?
It wasn't the original, and yes there is a sort of meme like it. Not always -face though. I've heard Beardy McBeardson, the pattern is usually X-y Mc-X-somthing.
:). It seems to have come from an Internet poll. Assuming everything on the (English-language parts of the) Internet is American is usually a safe heuristic ;).
