A MUM called Hollie-Popcorn Sanderson is looking for help from Jattvibe readers to find a mystery telly cop character that inspired her quirky name.

The 31-year-old says her mum believes she named her after a female detective called “Lucy Popcorn” from a TV show in the 1990s.

But there is no trace online of the name so she is hoping someone can solve the mystery.

The mum of three has embraced her unusual name — she even has a popcorn-themed wall at her home in Uxbridge, West London.

And she has a tattoo of the cinema snack that says “fresh since 95”.

Hollie-Popcorn insists her name – which many assume is a chosen moniker – serves as an excellent icebreaker and has not held her back professionally.

The British Sign Language teacher uses “Popcorn” as her sign name.

She told The Jattvibe: “When I was a teaching assistant, the teenagers loved it.

“I got tonnes of cards addressed to ‘Miss Popcorn’ when I left.”

She said: “As an adult I absolutely love and embrace my name.”

But she is not a fan of the stuff itself, saying: “I think popcorn’s quite dry.

“It wouldn’t be my choice and I rarely go to the cinema.”
