Glasgow is a city that has a proud history that has produced many recognisable faces over the years that have brought joy to people’s lives.
The countdown is on to the opening of the new Govan-Partick Bridge which will connect two historic Glasgow communities at either side of the River Clyde.
Although there is no official process in place to name the bridge, we wanted to ask our readers that if they were seeking a name, who they would like the bridge to be named after with over 100 people getting back to us with their ideas.
Here are the famous people from Govan and Partick our readers would like the bridge to be named after.

9. Govan Ferry
Although not a person, one of our readers would like to see the bridge named the 'Govan Ferry' which used to cross the river between Govan and Partick. | Glasgow City Archives
