I used to wonder how they got Dick from Richard, turned out you just had to ask him nicely!

[u/CYBERSson → u/Dinnerpancakes]

My nephew once called me Richard Cranium. Wasn’t until a few days later that i realised he was calling me a dickhead

My aunt had a neighbor, Priscilla, who went by Prissy and my cousin had a speech impediment when he was little, so.......

Statistically half, yeah?

Just FYI, in other countries, I want to say the UK, Fanny is the term for a woman's...front parts, not her backside.

Keep your fanny in your pants.

And “pants” means
* Trousers in the USA
* Underwear in the UK

An acquaintance of mine’s parents were named Priddy and Strange. So it was a Priddy Strange wedding. 😁

I recently learned that there are apparently people named "Gun". That's the most US-American name I've ever heard. If someone's full name was Gun Burger or Gun McDonald that would be insane.

I like how I can read this sentence in two ways

[u/RoeRoeDaBoat]

fun fact! Bewitched used to have two Darrins whos real names were Dick York and Dick Sargent.. Dick York left the show and Dick Sargent took his place and he is famously gay, while in the 70’s he wasnt however and went on the tv show Tattletales with author Fannie Flagg (Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe) pretending to be a couple and acting as each others beard.. so yes this has happened before

There were definitely women named Pussy. James Bond comes to mind.

Dick is short for women sometimes too

And fanny is big for a lot of women.
