Fanny Gravy is supposedly a funny name.

Fanny means **** in England.

It's still not very funny, but this is all the poor English have for comedy.

I'll explain this as tactfully as I can at 2am, 'Fanny Gravy' is what women secrete when aroused. Geddit?

Yes well, clearly PH isn't in the USA.

Curiously, the OED puts the American meaning as the original, but cites earlier literature for the British meaning.

You learn something new everyday. Butt Gravy is still funny though... though the british understanding is much dirtier.
