Ok, truth be told, 100% honest here.... my longtime luxury audio industry friend has the best (real) 'adult themed' name ever :-) This is 100% his real name from birth because i simply had to ask all those years ago...

John Q. Pubic, Jr.

It would come from a typo on my birth certificate, discovered too late for my parents, John Q. Public, Sr. and Suzy Q., his wife, to correct. When I came of age, I tried to make it right, but a clerk accidentally entered John Q. Cubic. Another typo I have to live with.

But at least they got my blood right...

...Type O.

I have always thought that the Spanish have the best names. I have always liked:
"Don Diego di Esplanzo e Valdez."
failing that, "Fernando Alonso Diaz." - what a great name for a F1 driver.
