Ok, here's an entire family for you. Real family, good friends of
my parents. I might have a couple of the details wrong, but the nicknames
are acurate. As I recall, three generations of men were named Richard, but
everyone called them Dick. So instead of calling them Dick and Dick jr.,
they became Big Dick and Little Dick. Well, soon Little Dick had a Dick of
his own, so the youngest became Young Dick. Young Dick's cousin is named
Peter, So the whole of them are referred to as Big Dick, Little Dick,
Young Dick and Peter.
Their last name? Mobey.
And they swear that until my mother pointed it out to them they
had no idea what they had done.
Corwyn Draca,
