I had a client named Mike Cox. Rad dude, but I giggle to myself every time he answers the phone "Hello this is Mike Cox.."

You gotta wonder what Mr. and Mrs. Cox were thinking naming their son Michael. Or Holden…
They were thinking lol, wouldn't it be funny if he went by Mike?
i went to grade school (through grade 9) with a mike hunt.
teachers got quite proficient at enunciation and pacing when calling his name.
His parents, Chase Cox and Mary Cox?
Captain Mike Hawke Sir! 😆🙄
I knew a Michael Hunt growing up. His life in our rural Texas school went about as well as you could imagine.
Literally knew a Richard Holder.
Dick Hayter (given name Richard) was the mayor of Manhattan, Kansas and my dad's boss at KSU.
Had a buddy who's last name was Richards, his dad's name was Harry.
Harry Richards... it had to be on purpose right?
I went to high school with a Rusty Woody.
How can you be mayor of an island, a state and a person?
Elections, how do they work?
His parents must be a hoot.
Knew a man who's last name was Weiner. Parents named him Seymour. Maybe his parents first language wasn't English.
Pretty sure that’s a Bart Simpson phone prank
Nah, this was an actual government name (could be coincidentally the same) he was an elderly student a very large university at the time. Decided to go back to college for fun at 75 or so for whatever his reasons were. I was working at the service desk so we would help people get signed in and change their passwords when they forgot them and such.
An ex girlfriend of mine had the last name of Pierce-Cox.
I'm in danger...
Was her first name Chastity?
No, but even if it was, I ain't here to share anyone's identity.
It was a joke yo.
Chastity Pierce-Cox
I know LOL!
Oh man, you're getting rare enough with that name that there's probably not a lot of options. Nothing to gain and kinda weird, but that's unique enough that it's probably 5 minutes of google to figure out.
What if your LAST name was holden and your FIRST name was berries?
You would B.Holden to that name.
Reminds me of the classic cricket commentary - "The bowler's Holding the batsman's Willey".
There used to be a U.S. senator (fittingly, a homophobic Republican) named Dick Armey.
My dad works with a guy whose name is Paul Hiscock. I didn't believe it until I heard his voicemail greeting.
I knew a guy named Richard Odar, pronounced odor. He didn't go by Dick.
Reminds me of that one movie...
Surely you can't be serious
I am serious. And don't call me Shirley.
🤜
🤛
holdenators hooooo!
