I've entered a few races as Buck Naked. In smaller races I sometimes finish in the top three of my age group. Usually get a chuckle when they call Buck up to get his award. I used to know a guy whose real name was Rusty Ball. At race registration he was often asked "Sir, please us your real name."

I've never personally used an alias when entering a race but know a few people who have. I have known some people with weird names though, including a few Dicks. One was a close friend and his name was Dick Johnson and I always kidded him about the redundancy in his name and he always responded he was named for one of his attributes and he was so large they had to name him twice. Another guy I worked with a long time ago was named Dick Hertz, no kidding. And one kid I went to middle school had the last name Dick and sometime during 6th grade his family decided to change their last name to something a little more Irish. Funny thing is that everyone still called him Dick afterwards because we were used to it. I remember playing football at recess and he was the QB we'd yell something like, "Dick! Dick! Over here, I'm open!" and he never looked at you but as soon as you called him by his new last name he'd zip the ball to you.

I once went to high school and then worked with a guy named:
Richard Bradley Burns
He had the unfortunate nickname for several years of "Dick Badly Burns"

I had a customer named Richard Head.

Thankfully he went by Richard..

I know of a Richard Less and Richard Harter - One went by Rich, the other by Dick.

Since this is the way this thread is heading,

I dated a guy once whose last name was Goo.

His uncle was Richard, and, of course went by Dick

Dick Goo. The guy, of course, is planning to bequeath his own son, should he have one, with the same name.

One of our arrestee's name was Caulie Flower. No wonder he turned to a life of crime..........
