Reminds me a litle of the Cosmogenesis paper where George Gamow insisted on adding Hans Bethe's name to the paper written by him (Gamow) and his graduate student, Ralph Alpher - just so it would read Alpher, Bethe, Gamow (like apha, beta, gamma )

Well, since we're on the subject I change my legal name to Maximus Illuminati :D

 

[franznietzsche]

This is my given name, what are you all talking about?

How about this for a good name change...

After being charged £20 for a £10 overdraft, 30 year old Michael Howard of Leeds changed his name by deed poll to “Yorkshire Bank Plc are Fascist B@st@rds”. The Bank asked him to close his account, and Mr B@st@rds asked them to repay the 69p balance by cheque, made out in his new name.
