Yes, Dick Beaver is a practicing chiropractor in Blairsden, California (pop: 50). Don't believe me? Here: www.findchiropractors.com/search.asp . His sign shows a cute little beaver, nibbling on some wood. Get your mind out of the gutter.

At least he's not a gynie, huh?

    Hi Tom,

    This immediately brings to mind:

    Dick Hyman
    Dick Butkus (one of the most unfortunate surnames ever)

    ...and inevitably leads to the game where we imagine the names Dr. Beaver might choose for his children, in his more sadistic moments...

    Randy? (/obvious)

      For a while I was friends with the folks at game-makers Freeverse Software (www.freeverse.com), and visited their office when in New York. On their wall they'd posted copies of order sheets they'd received from people with funny names, almost all of them "Dick _______". I wish I could remember some.

    I actually knew an elderly English lady farmer in Kansas whose honest to god name was "Gay Dyck" (pronounced just exactly how you fear it would be). I don't know how she managed to survive in the US.
