In middle school, I had a friend named Paige whose mother made her take her stepdad's last name when the mom remarried. His last name was Turner.

I think it’s weird when people have a Tommy Thompson or Johnny Johnson.

I had a coworker who hyphenated her name when she got married and it became Ho-Tran. Pronounced ho train.

I just finished watching the reboot of Mad about You and in one episode they are laughing hard at the baseball card with the name Dick Pole..

I am not into baseball and so I never heard the name. I looked it up! The guy exists!

We had to nix Jack Hoffmann, which makes me sad, because I love the name Jack.

My HS science teacher was Lester Able. He went by Les.

I did a job shadowing program with a guy named Richard Slocum. He went by Dick.
