I don't think I've ever heard it in another context.
Even I'm too young to have read The Hotspur but have your really never heard of Harry Hotspur?
. Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
Surely if a name change is required, it'll just be Spurs.
I think Stratford Spurs has a good ring to it.
Although on reflection it does sound like a character from a Raymond Chandler novel.
I was throwing screwed up unpaid bill reminders at the wastebasket when there was a knock at the door. Before I could say to wait a pair of legs walked in. She was blonde but I wasn't looking at her hair.
A voice husky on too many Chesterton Slims said, "Are you Stratford Spurs?"
"I could be."
Etc.
