I will add to the stories.

I did business with a guy named Dick Odor. Really. And his given name was Richard but he did not use it — guess he thought, what’s the use.

Years ago knew a gal whose cousing named her newborn, Randy Organ. Really.

I also know a gal that had an odd olden time first name and a poor middle name. She spent the money to have them changed 30 years ago and after ten years, no one, even in her family, uses her old name.

I have a first name that was not all that common in the fifties, but its more common now and my last name always gets a consonant left out as there is a simpler way to spell it. I’m old enough that its not something I even think about.

Just to add to the stories:

Served with a Major Dick and a Major Johnson.

Both had “Major” as their first names.

Not kidding.
