Yourhighness ... no, seriously, that's the kids name

We have a girl basketball player in our coverage area now whose name is Squirtisha. You could probably guess her nickname.

We also have a Bo Jackson.

And of the nation's top running backs is in our coverage area. It's not Jeremy ... it's Jermie Calhoun.

We also had a girl around here whose last name was Fagget.

 

Dan Jenkins's books always had the greatest athlete names.

 

Orangejello and Limejello, star running backs.

 

"It's pronounced Oz-Wee-Pay" [/NicolasCage]

And I think it was Kueth Duany.

 

Dick Trickle.

 

Always a personal favorite, former GT cornerback I-Perfection Harris...

How is he related to Cole Trickle?

 

We had a couple of really bad ones in my last coverage area, but my favs were.
Chevalier -- though we could have called him Chevrolet and none would have been the wiser.
Xaviest -- When Xavier is just not good enough, you have to be the Xaviest

There was also a story of a mother who gave birth to twins and gave them the same name. Same spelling and everything. When asked why she gave them the same name, she just quipped...
Well, they're twins, aren't they?
That I can't prove, but it's a good story anyway.

 

I loved calling him Crap when he was in training camp with the Chiefs. Isn't he with the Colts these days?

 

Anyone remember, I believe, the Kansas softball player named Destiny Frankenstein?
