Dick Tracy...
Not a real person, therefore no gender disphoria despite the confusing name.

Dick Butkus...
write your own funnee.

Dick Clark...
Currently doing The Crygenic Twist w Casey Kasem and Wolfman Jack in a hermetically-sealed vault in the Nevada dessert.
Now you know what's really going on at Area 51.
You're welcome.

I was Dick, before the President was elected. Then it changed. I was a kid at the time, so parents were more involved then.


Anyways how do you get Dick from Richard? A Dick was like a regular Joe. An any man.

"fellow, lad, man," 1550s, rhyming nickname for Rick, short for Richard, one of the commonest English names, it has long been a synonym for "fellow," and so most of the slang senses are probably very old, but naturally hard to find in the surviving records. The meaning "penis" is attested from 1891 in Farmer's slang dictionary (possibly British army slang). Meaning "detective" is recorded from 1908, perhaps as a shortened variant of detective. As a verb, "to bungle; to waste time," also "to cheat, treat badly," by 1969, American English (often with off or around).

With a name like that, I could see her going one of two ways... neither being a healthy middle. LOL

"Always show kindness and respect. Remember, we show compassion to others, not for who they are, but because of who you are"

I try to be more like the man my kids think I am. Someday, maybe it will happen.

I had a Marine buddy who was very into martial arts, said he'd been doing it since grade school. I asked what got him started and he said, "With a name like Dick Cox I didn't have much choice".
I always called him Rich, never put the two together before.
