Subject: RE: Are silly names an impediment?
My son and daughter both took lessons from a Mrs. Tittscowski which is in itself bad enough but the other kids turned it around to be Cowtittski (although they all say they really like her).

I can't remember the first name of the man but his last name was Hunter. He insisted that he be called by his nickname "Bud". Considering that he was in an agency that was involved in the war on drugs he might have thought it funny to be known as Bud Hunter. Unfortunately everyone used to mispronounce the "d" as a "t" making him Butt Hunter.
