I had a friend named Stephen Trent Dunkin (went by Trent), and it was funny, because in 9th grade, I had him in my Bilogy class, and we were looking up definitions, and he came across his initials (STD) and he started shouting that his initials were in the text book. I had asked him what his initials were, and he told me. I told him to read the definition of what STD stood for, and his jaw dropped. He had never known what it was until that day, and even later on throughout high school, he still bragged that his initials were STD.

Okay - I'm going to get fired... I took a minute to check messages and got caught up in this thread! So I just had to add a few more to the list...

No kidding - these are all true - no urban legends, I promise...

I went to summer camp with a Daniel Blue Denim;
I had the pleasure of knowing a lovely city clerk by the name Gaye Mann;
My dentist's wife is also a practicing dentist, who kept her maiden name... Dr. Sandra Payne;
and finally - the poor gentlemen I did home health billing for whose parents named him Prenis Swallows!

As for the initials, too often we don't realize until after the fact how silly they are... Thankfully I caught my weird initials before I finalized my marriage certificate. My given name was Andrea Suzanne B*** and I married a lovely gentlemen with the last name Shelton - luckily a friend pointed out to me my initials, so I took my maiden name as my middle initial. Thought I'd rather be anti-lock brakes (ABS) as opposed to A-S-S... hehehe!

Love this thread!
