Know what Dick Clark's middle name is? Wagstaff.

No, seriously.

His mother was so very, very cruel.

No. My family is the epitome of cruelty with names.

For example, these are the common names:

Myrnice Marcia
Oliver Scott
Buena Vista (I kid you not, I have several aunts in my family named Buena Vista.)

Debate class, sophomore year: Zip Adido Daub.

His parents were a bit on the hippie side.

I had a friend in high school with hippie parents too. Her name was Dharma Buford.

Some unfortunate names I've encountered:

Willie Elvis Wile. (No, not William. Willie. It was on his birth certificate.)
Meadow Rose (Hippie parents.)

And my personal favourite from when I was in high school...

"Anita Ho, would you please come to the office? Anita Ho."

For some reason, that never got old.

I'm Offended

I (Willie Elvis Wile) came upon this tonight (6/22/2012). And, I must say to you and everyone else. How dare you make fun of us (even in bringing up the past). We have tried hard to overcome nicknames and taunting during our school years. And coming into our own has taken longer then most people.

We have had to try to be bigger then you and in some cases our families. So how dare you feel free to share this on the internet. This is no better then the bully on the playground in elementary school.

Thank you
Willie Elvis Wile

You think that's cruel? I know someone whose name is Ficus Ulysses Carter Kirkpatrick. Don't think it's so bad? Check out the initials.

And I know someone who knows someone whose name is Shithead, pronounced Shih-THEED. That should be illegal.

Wow, that's up there with Herman Melville's kid Stanwix.

Stanwix would be a WONDERFUL name
