The ince is a unit of measurement. It is equal to one cubic inch, and weighs exactly one ounce. This represents the extent of the tact and diplomacy posessed by former footballer (and current manager) Paul Ince. Many people think that this is how the ince was named, but the opposite is true. Paul Ince's name at birth was actually Paul Smith, but he was concerned for his macho/whining-bitch image if people mistook him for the perfume manufacturer, so thus changed his name to something more appropriate.
The ince got its name simply through it's similarity to both the words "inch" and "ounce".
