So someone just emails me and calls me Ron. Whatever. But it made me think of all of the times people have called us something other than our real names. Some of the good ones:
Concerning Mr Kent Ogden, when naming children care should be taken to make sure the first name is more "first-namey" that the last name. In this case "Kent" is much more first-namey than Ogden. So a first name more like John or Pete is much more in line to prevent the name switch situation.
I went to high school (a long long time ago) with a guy named Craig Thomas. He got alot of Thomas Craig in his life. We solved the problem by calling him Buford.
