My two favorite track names...
Korean pole vaulter Yoo Suk Kim and Kiwi decathlete Brent Newdick.
Dick Schoen (shown). A professor at UCLA.
I had a student named Vagina, another named Sunshine, and one named Sandy Loynes, a name that never failed to evoke the iconic scene in "From Here to Eternity" featuring Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr kissing in the surf.
When I student taught, I had a student named, unfortunately, Richard Head. You could hear him in the hall, yelling at his tormentors,"My name is RICHARD!"
To which they would invariably respond,"Anything you say,Dickhead."
Parents should have been whipped.
went to elementary school with a peter poo. and there was a phil mccracken in my highschool ... i believe i've met a willy dick once in my life
Helen Hunt, Oscar winning actress.
If you have a question, go to Helen Hunt.
went to college with a girl with last name of mycock who dated a guy with a last name dick.
I went to school with a kid named Mitch Weiser. His Dad went by Bud and, as I recall, the name fit well.
Two from this area are Peter Short (runner) and Mike Easter (AIDS Task Force). Mike was a good sport about it, and I'm sure I wasn't the first guy that broke out laughing when he introduced himself. He was on a race organizing committee, so more than ounce I had to say with a straight face to someone "you need to contact Mike Easter for that". It was tough.
My neighbor's last name: assman. The truth.
Really, "Mike Easter," why didn't he just go by "Michael"?
Dick Weiner, principal percussionist of the Cleveland Orchestra:

And, yes, he really does go by "Dick".
How did we get this far without mentioning Dick Pound?
Went to school with someone named Nam Ho.
We used to eat at a "Fu King" chinese restaurant in college. True story.
A former business contact, Woodrow Love. Yes, he went by Woody. I managed to keep from laughing the times we've had to interact.
I know a girl named X'auntasia. I seriously don't get the need for such weird names. Was the x really necessary?
Also, Richard Head. Real name.
Knew someone else named Barbie Dolly. Some people just don't have any foresight into a kid's future when they come up with these things. Naming a kid Barbie may be cute for a few years, but Barbie Dolly for life? Very unfortunate.
Amanda. I know it's common, but I just don't like it. It sounds like "A man, duh!" Not a good name, in my opinion.
