A English Beefeater is the nickname for The Yeoman Warders of Her Majesty's Royal Palace and Fortress the Tower of London, and Members of the Sovereign's Body Guard of the Yeoman Guard Extraordinary, or some times known as The Yeoman of the Guards

Both quite a mouthful.

No one is sure were the nick name comes from, but popular legend has it that the guards received some of their pay in beef, hence beefeater.
