I was just thiking the other day.
The British Bulldog. His middle name was Boy. I thought it was just some nickname that they called him Davey-Boy all the time. But turns out that his parents messed up on his birth certificate. But it worked. Can't imagine call him David or Davey Smith.
What other names are a lot cooler on a wrestler than it would be on a real person?

The name "Lance" only works in two contexts, wrestling, and porn. I've never met a Lance that wasn't involved in one or the other.

Early 90s, anyone? Every other wrestler was named Scott or Brian.

Lance Armstrong isn't a wrestler, he's just roided up like one.

I've never heard the name Brodus until I saw Brodus Clay on NXT.

I met the British Bulldog in the local civic center parking lot before a WWF house show when I was a kid, and he signed his name as "David Smith" when I asked for an autograph. I remember thinking that was weird, because I was so used to calling him Davey Boy.

Brock Lesnar. Seriously wtf? Brock? Isn't that that guy from pokemon and the guy from the venture bros? Nobody would name a real person brock. I searched the name on wikipedia and there are a lot of "notable" people with the first name "Brock". Not exactly the same, but close enough, let's not forget about Barack (sounds like "Brock" if you say it fast enough) Obama.

Marcus Cor-Von comes to mind. Kane the Undertaker also works here.
Also, Sexton Hardcastle? And what blue blood would name their child Hunter Hearst Helsmley the 3rd?

None of those people are noteable. a rugby player , two guys from Canada , a guy with a bit part in to ill a mocking bird and a guy who played one game in the NHL. Yeah not notable.
