Pretty sure the entire Phoenix family qualifies. Also, anyone with a generic name with a non-generic spelling (Chone Figgins) inspires my mockery.

Zappa family qualifies as well.

I had a textbook about Microsoft's Visual C++ once written by Buck Forland.

Borland was the company who was the nearest competitor in C++ programming at the time. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Chone Figgins' given name is Desmond.... his middle name is DeChone, which is where Chone comes from.
